The Portland Trail Blazers are moving on to the second round of the NBA playoffs after taking down the Oklahoma City Thunder in Game 5 Tuesday night, and they have Damian Lillard to thank.

The All-Star point guard put together a playoff performance for the ages, dropping 50 points — 34 in the first half — and hitting a ridiculous, game-winning, series-clinching, deep 3-pointer at the buzzer to send Moda Center into a frenzy.

But the fans inside the Portland arena weren't the only ones in absolute awe of Lillard's heroics.

Shortly after the shot splashed home, LeBron James tweeted an emoji of a watch — a nod to Lillard's "Dame Time" celebration.

"DAME DAMN!!!!" tweeted Dwyane Wade.

"Damian's performance was probably the best performance I've seen in person," Blazers coach Terry Stotts said.

Paul George, who was guarding Lillard on the final play, wasn't as impressed.

"I don't care what anybody says, that's a bad shot," he said. "But, hey, he made it. That story won't be told, that it was a bad shot. You live with that."
