Damian Lillard on being compared to Curry: "It's disrespectful"

[GilSho]

I respect Steph Curry. Because what he's doing is amazing. But I'm my own man. So don't come to me and say I'm impersonating him. You telling me I'm impersonating somebody by doing well at my job is disrespectful. ...

I just think you respect the man as the man that they are. You can respect what Steph Curry's doing and love what Steph Curry's doing. But that has nothing to do with me. I'm my own man.

They still sleep.

Media loves finding "the next _____" and he shut it down perfectly: He respects greats, but he's his own man.

Do you young fella
