Lillard: It's normal for the Trail Blazers to choose Henderson.

Recently, Portland Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard appeared on a podcast.

The Trail Blazers chose Scott Henderson, who plays the same position as Lillard, as their point guard. Did Lillard feel offended by this?

Lillard responded, "No. I've talked to Henderson a few times since he entered the league. I wasn't surprised that the Trail Blazers chose him. I respect his game, and I think he's one of the best point guards in this class, so if you have a choice, of course, you would pick him. But no, I didn't feel offended at all. Because, in the end, you still have to go out there and play. I've been in the league for a long time, so for me, it's not something that bothers me."

His words make it seem like he has brought a lot of honor to the Trail Blazers himself.

Making it to the playoffs for so many years in a row is quite an achievement.

I think in terms of overall offense and defense, he indeed doesn't match up to Howard and McGrady.
