Somewhere in America today, a man is looking around his humble-or-not abode and thinking, "This here is still mine." And also, "Thank you, Damian Lillard."
An explanation is in order.
According to this from Donovan Dooley of Deadspin, some deranged Portland Trail Blazers fan apparently bet the house on the Blazers reaching 42 wins this season. And by "bet the house," the Blob literally means he bet his house.
Or so someone with the Twitter handle LordTreeSap tweeted at Lillard prior to Sunday's season finale between the Blazers' and Nuggets.
Asked how Dame's hammy was. Then added he needed "you guys" to win 42 games or he'd lose his house.
The Blazers were sitting at 41 wins going into Sunday. And the Blob is pleased to say this weirdo saga with undertones of stalking had a happy ending, because the Blazers beat the Nuggets 132-116.
And Lillard?
Scored 22 points and dished 10 assists, combining with backcourt mate CJ McCollum for 46 points and 15 dimes as the Blazers dropped 43 points on the Nuggets in the first quarter and never looked back.
Way to save LordTreeSap's family homestead, Dame.
Even if this tale is completely not true and LordTreeSap was actually Twittering from Mom's basement.
If it were so inclined, the Blob would bet large on that.
