NBA Bubble Games Were Easier Than Normal NBA Games According To Damian Lillard

 

Damian Lillard and the Portland Trail Blazers put on a show and had an incredible run to clinch the eighth spot in the Western Conference during the NBA restart earlier this year. One of the factors that could’ve boosted up their level of play perhaps was playing inside the NBA bubble.

In an Instagram live, Lillard elaborated why bubble games were easier than the normal NBA games. He also mentioned that the bubble was the reason why a lot of players in the league were able to thrive and record some dominant performances.

 

“To me personally, the bubble was way easier. There was really no distractions. We didn’t have to travel after games. We were leaving arenas like 10 or 11 o’clock after the games and we would go right back to the hotel,” the Blazers star shared. “We would get our recovery right after the game, we would have food laid out for us when we go to our room to lay down. Everything was laid out. We weren’t on a plane after, rush to the hotel, check into our rooms. It was just get up the next morning and practice all in one spot. Our bodies were recovering faster. We were more rested. It was way easier for me. That’s why you saw a lot of people just killing it like that.”
