Lillard’s iconic shot came against the Oklahoma City Thunder when the game was tied at 115. With the final seconds closing in on the game, the point guard took a shot and made the bucket. The 37-footer shot closed the game for the Blazers sending his team to the Western Conference Semi-Finals.

Lillard’s brilliant shot is considered one of the very best in the league’s history and looking at the fans’ reactions to it years later, proves it right. Not just that, Lillard’s celebration after successfully executing the shot was also memorable.

Lillard waved at the Thunder’s bench while celebrating the win after his breathtaking showcase of precise execution. Although the shot and celebration instantly became a fan favorite, it wasn’t as well received by his opposition. At the post-game press conference, Paul George called it a “poor shot.”

Responding to George’s comment, Lillard said that he is just being unfair with his opinion as he is being a “poor sport” while calling it a bad shot. Regardless of what the athletes had to say about it, the impact of that shot is undeniable. Additionally, the shot helped the Blazers advance to the next round of the season, so it wouldn’t have mattered what others had to say about it.

Those iconic few seconds are still etched into the memories of every fan who witnessed it.
