I'd take love if Aldridge was going to leave. Everyone bitching about him being a black hole, remember that z bo had the same things said about him most of his career. Love has had a down year, but he is a great player.

He just had an interview recently saying he would love to play for Portland someday too, so I think he would be happy here.

Yes but Zbo finally played well when they got such a defensive stud in Marc Gasol. We don't have the player that can make up for all the defensive woes Love will give us

I'm just saying, people can get better. Zbos improvements on d aren't solely because of gasol. Add in the fact that love said he would love to play for us and he is a fringe all star type player, you'd happily take him if Aldridge forced our hand.

At the end of the day, I don't see Aldridge leaving though
 
Just think of a lineup with Dame, CJ, Nic, Meyers, & Love all spaced around the 3-point line bombing away. That would be something to behold. ;)
 
Remember when we traded our star Power Forward for another Power Forward that looked almost as good?

We ended up with fucking Shareef Abdur Rahim.

Just say no.

Zach is a decent man defender because his big body is tough to move. What made him terrible was his inability to help defend.

You mean the same SAR that put up 17 Ppg, 7 rpg on 50% fg 39% 3pt and 87% ft in his line full season for us?

Some of you would be yanking your baseball bats to those percentages.

I'd rather have Mirotic before I went for Love. I also mentioned Blake Griffin earlier, but the talent level is probably too close for them to agree to a sign and trade.

Love would be a fantastic option if Aldridge left. It's pretty clear that Cleveland isn't using him the right way and I think he'd flourish in our system.

Funny, From reading the forum I was under the impression that if a player doesn't do well on one team he sucks on all teams, under all coaches?

When LaMarcus was averaging 17/7 we called him LaMarshmallow. No, nobody is happy with 17/7.

Blake's new game is really really good. I'm impressed with him. Mirotic I would love too, if it came to that.

I'd like to keep LMA if possible though.

Keeping LMA is obviously the number one choice, but I think we could do worse than bringing in a guy like Mirotic to grow with the current core since he isn't that old.

Well, considering that Love actually did very well in Minny but sucked in Cleveland, your impression is absolutely wrong. In fact, most that knew he was a "stat padder loser" were proven right when he actually went to a good team with great players.

Delusional. Blake Griffin has far more trade value than Aldridge...

No, Griffin is better now. Younger and better. Didn't think it would be this quick but he is. 22/8/5 on. 504/.400/.728 this season, his post game has improved, he can shoot jumpers now and moves the ball very well.

Yeah Griffin averaged 7.4 assist per game against the Spurs. LaMarcus' was at 1.8; his career postseason average is 1.6. Griffin is a beast, shoots better, passes better, can also hit the long jumper, is much more dynamic and younger. He was initially way overhyped his first few years but has totally exceeded those expectations.
 
I just don't think L0ve is that good plus he's injury prone, would rather go after a PF/C like Greg Monroe and if LMA decides to leave and we can't sign and trade him which seems unlikely perhaps we can get a huge TPE which could come in handy
 
One of my favorite things when we play the Clippers is watching LA abuse Blake. You can talk stats all you want (and seriously, you're quoting assists for a PF? WTF?), but LA is just bigger and stronger than Blake will ever be. Blake's improved now that his outside game isn't awful, but he still needs to be set up. LA can get his own shot pretty much at will.

Plus, Stan Love is a dildo.
 
If Aldridge want to go I'd be tempted to look into that Lakers package of Julius Randle and the pick. Try to draft D'Angelo Russell.
