So, knowing that All-Star guard Damian Lillard is a pretty good rapper – he goes by the stage name "DAME D.O.L.L.A" – the Trail Blazers decided to drop a beat and let Lillard freestyle over it while hyping him up.

"Man, how the f--- we stuck up in the snow? Guess we fly this b---- tomorrow," he began. "Back stuck on the plane, I might have to buy a fit tomorrow. And it’s cuffin’ weather, grab ya b----; she might get hit tomorrow."
Lillard also shouted out some of his teammates, while also having some fun with old NBA storylines like former NBA guard Gilbert Arenas having a firearm in the Washington Wizards locker room.
