StatMan - Episode #65: Damian Lillard deserves our respect

Since the NBA introduced the three-point field goal in the 1979–80 season, the 50–40–90 shooting threshold has been reached by eight players:

• Larry Bird with the Boston Celtics
• Malcolm Brogdon with the Milwaukee Bucks
• Stephen Curry with the Golden State Warriors
• Kevin Durant with the Oklahoma City Thunder
• Reggie Miller with the Indiana Pacers
• Steve Nash with the Phoenix Suns
• Dirk Nowitzki with the Dallas Mavericks
• Mark Price with the Cleveland Cavaliers

Then there is Damian Lillard. He's the first player in NBA history to average at least 40 points per game with 50/50/90 shooting splits over a 10-game span. Put some respect on this man's name!
Aside from Damian's ridiculous statistical streak,
