Official LaMarcus Aldridge Thread

Welcome to our community

Be a part of something great, join today!

Some facts so far this season. All of us remember LaMonster 10-11 season. For the entire season, he had 36 double doubles. So far this season (halfway point) he has 20 double doubles.
 
I dont get the monroe love. He is a young al jefferson. Good rebounder, great scorer and about as good as hickson on D.

And Aldridge is easily top 5 in his position.
No he's not. Some people may think that, but it's certainly not as clear cut as Nic at his position. The league is stocked with good PFs.
Over the weekend we saw that Blake IS better.
Bosh IS better.
Duncan - even at this stage - IS better.
Cousins IS better.
Zbo IS better.
When healthy, Dirk IS better.
Love IS better.
Heck, David Lee is better.

Bosh is not better.
Duncan is is not better
Cousins is a center
ZBo might be better
When healthy Oden was the best center in basketball
Love is better
Lee is not better

Really? I see Duncan defensive tendencies in Monroe (and I mean that as a good thing).

Duncan is a center. Even pop admitted that.

lma is top 5, we all know you dislike lma, but lets be honest here. lma is easily top 5.

Batum,might be top 5.

Lebron, kd, melo are for sure better. Paul George? Luol deng? Andre iguodala??

Bosh IS better. -- Equal
Duncan - even at this stage - IS better. ---- Yes
Cousins IS better. --- Center doesn't apply
Zbo IS better. --- No
When healthy, Dirk IS better. --- He's not healthy and no right now
Love IS better. --- Love isn't healthy and so far this season isn't better when healthy this season, but I give him a pass
Heck, David Lee is better. --- Aldridge has a higher win share, points and better post game

Griffin is better.

I think these PFs are better than Aldridge right now.

1.) Duncan
2.) Griffin
3.) Love
4 a.) Aldridge
4 b.) Bosh
5.) Lee
6.) West
7.) Smith

Haha...... did you really just make this list to prove your point, this horrible.

Well he said Griffin was abusing Aldridge on the first Clipper game. He didn't notice that Hickson was playing D on Griffin most the night. It's blue9; you gotta give him a pass for his myopic hatred towards Aldridge.
 
Look beyond the stats, people. WATCH LMA play - he's uncoordinated and has no power. He's a poor dribbler. While he has gotten much better at rebounding, he's still not great at it. And while his passing has improved, he's still not a good passer. He has trouble catching the ball on the move, which is probably why he's never developed a good two-man game with anyone. Aside from the pick/pop, he doesn't play within the flow of the offense - you pass the ball to him and it sticks, stopping any sort of flow and movement on the court. People say that he's one of the best shooting big men in the league, but the percentages don't support this.
Just watch him play and look at his body movements. Then compare that to all the players I listed above - they are all superior to LMA. They look like NBA PFs, whereas LMA looks like a rag doll.
 
But what is more valuable? Aldridge, Drummand, Lillard, Prince and Matthews or Lillard, Matthews, Batum, Hickson, Monroe?

It wouldn't be a one for one trade in all likelihood.

EDIT: Nevermind the batshit insane assumption that we could get Drummond for Hickson.

There's a reason the Clippers didn't put Griffin on Aldridge

Griffin can't guard him because Aldridge just backs him down to the bucket

Says the fan that thought Aldridge was defending Griffin and Love; when Hickson was on him.
 
Hey blue person...... you haven't been on my site long enough to be stirring shit up and blasting personal attacks....... lay low for awhile and don't rock the boat son. I'll let you know when it's time to come out and play with the big kids.

And so it begins.... Roytoy loves Aldridge and hates Batum. Blue9 loves Batum and Hates Aldridge. Who will win?!?!
 
Griffin IS a crap defender, but he's better in just about every other way - his post moves are coordinated and strong. He can pass, he can dribble, he can rebound. He can catch the ball on the move.

And all you have to do is foul him and make him shoot free throws to take him out of the game

Exactly! #$%^&(*& rookies, right?
