'I think over time people will remember that Dame was a real rapper and he was in the NBA at the same time.'
There’s only one real barometer for identifying when a basketball has reached the top of the NBA mountain. It isn’t championships, or all-star games, or gaudy stats. It’s not shoe deals, or movie roles, or Instagram followers. It’s much simpler than that. It’s the name. LeBron. Steph. Russ. Giannis. Kawhi. The greats only need one.
LILLARD: Oh, for sure. It can cause problems. I think when you’re offered that kind of money, you start to feel like you can buy anything—you can buy your way out of anything. And a lot of times you have people around you that won’t go against it because they also benefit from what you do, and get to be a part of the events that you’re part of. They get to go on the vacations you go on.
BARNA: Players are also under a way bigger microscope than they were even as early as ten years ago. Is it easy to block out all the noise? LILLARD: I think it’s possible because of the way I came in, being a professional athlete and actually building it up instead of jumping in and saying, “I’m a professional athlete, listen to my music.” I built it up like any other aspiring artist, and I’m constantly coming with music, with albums, and mixtapes and features. I think over time, even if I’m not considered the best, people will remember that Dame was a real rapper and he was in the NBA at the same time.
