Dame and DeMar both come from rough parts in Cali, both got that ice cold clutch gene in their veins but they just good dudes, humble and hardworking striving to be and do better that’s what it’s all about. Dame and DeMar have done so much for the game! Us fans appreciate y’all’s greatness!

My daughter is yours and the bulls biggest fan, she’s 12 and is obsessed with basketball.Her birthday is this Friday and is having a full blown bulls theme birthday party. We’ve been watching this series together and her seeing that her favorite basketball player struggles with some of the same things she does gives her hope that everything will be ok. You are inspiring more people than you know. Thank you so much for this series ❤

Dame and demar are literally like alternate versions of each other they just grew up in two different parts of cali. But the way they carry themselves the way they speak how they play where they come from they are very similar both very unique in their own respect. But I can see how they would become good friends and that’s the beauty of the league.

I remember reading a story about Dame inviting a friend of his at Weber to live with him when he was struggling and staying close w him. Also read about some off the court things he dealt with during Covid where he had to be a strong leader for his family/friends. much respect to Demar and Dame for keeping it real and putting this convo out to the public

Growing up in a New England, being a patriots and Celtics fan, I’ve had many sports idols to look up to. However, my favorite athlete of all time happens to be a long time blazer and now a Milwaukee buck. Damian lillard is the most inspirational athlete of my lifetime, and I really appreciate him doing something like this. Thank you Dame!

no it’s not millionaires whining, try working a regular job, and living a civilians life that’s stressful. Living the dream and not being grateful is no bueno, count your blessings.

@TizOnly1 2 ай бұрын

@@ballin4real7 half a million people in the US are homeless. They'd probably call "a civilians life" living the dream. You say it's stressful. There are problems at every level of life. Understanding each other, and understanding that mental health isn't just based on someone's financial situation, is important. More important than even that, kids look up to these players so normalizing caring about mental health is an altogether positive thing. Shout out Deebo and Dame for this.

@NorfsideC 2 ай бұрын

@ballin4real7 you sound stupid. So imagine if you had people talk about the performance of your job on national tv your 9-5 no matter if you dealing with personal issues or not and you had to be damn near perfect or your next raise was in jeopardy. Just because these folks are living the “dream” doesn’t mean they not people the luxury for us is that we can live our lives however we please while there’s is under a microscope at all times.

Hello Demar. Your ball game bring me so much joy. My partner who is deaf and autistic. I recently brought him into watching the bulls. Omg the emotions he have when you get the ball. 😂😂😂❤❤❤ he is Big kid. He don’t understand the game. So he hates it when you foul someone and slow down the game for free throws. Omg I fear going to a game and him seeing you. Start reacting to you like a villain wrestler. But he is hyper into all the recent games. Rather your feel like a hero/villain. your bringing life into our home. Thank you. This is my todays. For My past, I Had a father who drink and beat me a lot. So I understand the weight of the world while struggling mentally.

All heroes don't wear capes, these two brothas are shedding light on something that isn't talked about enough in the urban community. Mental health is so important and many people don't even know that they are suffering or how to get help. The thing to remember about mental health is that you can't see when your hurting, in comparison to something physical like a bruise or a bump so it's harder to understand when your hurt or sick. However platforms like this that breakdown how things can effect us mentally and shed light on way's to deal with it is such a big help to others dealing with issues. I have subscribed and really enjoyed watching these two superstars go over such an important topic. Legendary!

❤ I love the transparency of this conversation! Life doesn’t discriminate or know social/economic status. It happens to us all! Keep speaking on it, pouring into one another and taking care of yourselves in all aspects (mentally, emotionally, physically)! You owe it to yourselves! As cliche as it is, “you can’t pour from an empty cup” do things to fill your cup and everybody benefits from it!

Obviously I am not an NBA player but I can say that this video has giving me the confidence to go talk to someone about my mental health struggles. I never really have anyone to talk to and truly never thought about going to go to someone professionally. We as fans need to start realizing that these NBA players are just as HUMAN as we are, they're just millionaires that's literally the only difference. Thank you DeMar and Damian for this great video seriously these type of videos from guys like you mean a lot.
