LA Update.......

[THE HCP]

LaMarcus Aldridge has a sore right hip and is probable for tonight's game vs Hornets. MRI came back negative. Didn't attend shootaround.

 

[Mediocre Man]

Hopefully they sit him the rest of the year. Can't be too careful with a pillar

I wouldn't be against sitting LaMarcus if there is an issue and he's not 100 percent. Might as well start Hickson, and then find some mins for Thabeet.

I agree. Start Thabeet. He is the iceberg that sinks our Titanic.

yes, that would be FULL TANK MODE for sure

agree, we need Patton to lead the way

This is a perfect opportunity to sit Aldridge if we are tanking, but it doesn't appear we will tank until we are mathematically eliminated from the playoffs.

if Patton does not work go with Rommel

Okay thabeet is a fucking joke. Saw him in person and the dude walks like he has polio. He is awkward and his upper body looks like a high school cheerleader. You want to tank, build your franchise around that slob!

I really can't believe some gm was stupid enough to draft him #2. If I was the owner, I would blackball any idiot stupid enough to think that was wise.

It wasn't just Memphis. Everyone missed the boat on this guy. Check out his NBA Draft Profile . . . they scouted him very highly. It's hard to believe he was once "one of the most dominant players in the history of college basketball."

I remember being adamant that he was garbage over on BBF forums. Everybody thought he was an athletic freak because he could block 6'6" centers in college.

Who's this "everybody" you're referring to?

Everybody on the forum that I was debating college prospects with.

My most vivid memory of Thabeet from that year he declared was Dejaun Blair absolutely eating his lunch.

 

[MickZagger]

I remember that, too.

Seems UCONN always has a lot of prospects that never pan out in recent years.
