PORTLAND, Ore. — Damian Lillard doesn't want to hear that no team has ever come back from a 0-3 start in an NBA playoff series.
Portland's All-Star point guard has dramatically distanced himself from a slump at the start of the playoffs and is determined to extend the series.
Make history? Maybe. But for right now it's just about winning the next one.
"Since we went down 0-3, the big thing we've been talking about is having heart and playing with pride," he said.
The Trail Blazers avoided the sweep and now head to Memphis for Game 5 on Wednesday night, with the Grizzlies at a 3-1 advantage.
