Yeah, he made a lot of good things happen. His shot just wouldn’t go down. Hit a few in the 4th, had the huge steal and 3, and was smart enough to defer to CJ who was unguardable.

>I'm not convinced he's better than Russ and Kyrie.
Dame played better in Game 7 than Kyrie did in games 2, 3, 4, and 5. And that would be true even if they had lost the game. This will be the 4th straight season that Dame gets more All-NBA votes than Kyrie. So it's not like this is some sort of outlier season. Actually, Kyrie had his best season this year... How many people are gonna vote for Kyrie over Dame for All-NBA or MVP? I'd bet a grand total of zero. Kyrie is a great player, but he's not as good as Dame.
Russ has supposedly been busting that ass for years lmfao, but Dame has been outplaying Russ in their head-to-head matchups for years. And if you watched any of the OKC / POR games this year, you know who the better player is right today.
Dame has been elite for a long time. People are just too busy feeding into spoon-fed media narratives instead of watching basketball games.

I'm just sayin.
That shit matters.
The Blazers lost four of their starters, and were supposedly in a rebuilding year. They not only made the playoffs, but they advanced. Dame has made the playoffs in six straight years and has advanced three times.
That shit matters.
AD is a great player, but you can't apply double standards to winning. Does KAT belong on a top 10 list?

How many first team All-NBA and All-Defensive team awards does Embiid have? That shit matters too.

Who did Dame get SWEPT by in the playoffs last year?

Nobody else in the league can do that in a playoff setting & playmaking is overrated in a high stakes game where roles players are scared to shoot, even LeBron had to turn into a scorer when push came the shove.
