It’s weird for me that Lillard is considered Top 75 but Manu is not. (alien.top)

Anyone who grew up watching Manu knows what I’m talking about. The guy was a baller. Arguably the greatest sixth man in NBA history. But this is probably where the biggest departure is from Lillard; Manu didn’t have the same green light.

Dame averages 25 6 playing 36 min a night. Manu 13 4 playing around 25 minutes.

But Manu’s 4 rings and the impact he had on those chip years was insane. I still remember him outplaying Wade in the finals. The guy had some GREAT moments in his career.

Manu was a great player, but if we’re giving him credit for what he could’ve done with the green light, we need to give guys like Dame credit for what they could’ve done playing next to someone like Timmy.
