Could Leonard be better than Lillard in a few years?

Trade him now before the bloom is off the rose.

Trade the whole team, imo, before the bloom is off the rose.

Well this is the city of Roses, I'm sure you could find a rose somewhere.

You just wanted to get the street cred for mentioning Dwayne Schintzius.

LOL @ Billy Ray Schintzius. Wonder what his daughter Miley is up to these days.

Just got me thinking. I know Lillard is the showpiece at the moment, but after watching Stotts play Leonard for the 3rd quarter run and the entire 4th, I can't help but be impressed with Leonard's pure athletic ability. Lillard is like Roy but I wouldn't be surprised if Leonard becomes the "Aldridge" like piece in a few years and surpasses him. He's obviously got a ways to go, but he's young, hard working, and the coach seems to have a lot of confidence him.

It's possible. In the same way Joel Freeland is now better than Greg Oden. In other words, it has less to do with how hard Leonard works than how healthy Lillard is.
