Watch Damian Lillard hit this absurd buzzer-beater from Steph Curry range
If there's one downside to Stephen Curry's ridiculous shooting this season, it's that the Golden State Warriors point guard has obscured just how good the rest of the league is.
Damian Lillard, for one, is sick of playing in the shadow of the reigning MVP, and he doesn't want to hear your comparisons between the two. Unfortunately for Lillard, we don't really have a choice after the Portland point guard knocked down this ridiculous buzzer beater against the Raptors on Friday:
You see it too, right? The distance, the form, the defeat on the faces of the other team — it's all extraordinarily reminiscent of Curry's game-winner against the Oklahoma City Thunder:

Lillard's shot didn't come with the game on the line, so there wasn't quite as much pressure. On the other hand, Curry had plenty of time left when he fired away; Lillard used every bit of time before knocking his shot down.
But what else would you expect from the man who calls the moments when the game are on the line "Lillard Time"?
