Not really. Its not just black and white like that. Aldridge is good, but he shouldn't be some untouchable guy, especially when there's so many holes on this roster. He's good no doubt. But, he's like a glorified Abdur-Rahim. He'll never carry a team anywhere of note as the main option.

Actually, Kevin Love fits that description better than LMA. Puts up stats on terrible teams.

Anyway, I think he's a little bit better than Shareef .

Hahahaha!

SAR was a stat beast on bad teams. Played ONE TIME in the playoffs in his career.

You're on a roll lately. Rubio is in the Rondo "mold", and LMA is "slightly better" than SAR.

Classic. This board is awesome. The experts here never cease to amaze me.

Yes, Rubio is a pass first point guard with extraordinary vision ... who can't shoot.

LaMarcus is slightly better than Shareef Abdur-Rahim ... measure "slightly" however you wish.

I'll measure it by not taking anything you say seriously ever again.

The Rubio/Rondo was a tell, but saying LMA is "slightly" better than SAR is hilarious. You and blue should hang out at O-live.
 
Clutch tonight hitting a game tying three and a clutch fade away for the win with 1.9 seconds left. Take that haters

Rubio is in the "Rondo mold"

This board is so entertaining. I love this place!

Louganis, I always thought you were big on advanced statistics.

slightly better in win-shares per 48 ... everything else dead-even (mostly)

Except for winning games.

Whatever. I know your posts are meant to be ridiculous at times. We all do it.

Hahahaha I think Aldridge read this thread.

Blue9 "Aldridge doesn't pass well after being doubled". He got doubled and passed a sweet give and go for batum layup off a double.

Blue9 "Aldridge can't make clutch free throws" Aldridge makes two clutch free throws with 2 minutes left.

Blue9 "Aldridge can't rebound". Aldridge with 13

Blue9 "you can't count on Aldridge in the fourth". Aldridge scores 5 points in 12 seconds to tie with a three pointer then make a 1.9 second turn around fade away for the win.

You don't pay enough attention. Had I thought that, I would have thought Love was a better player than LMA.

I don't, and never have. Derp
 
Watching Kevin Love try and complete that turn around jumper at the buzzer would be comical

One day people on this forum will value skill sets correctly instead of reading off advanced statistics from basketball-reference.com

I say turn around jumper

Mickzagger posts a video of Love shooting a 30ft 3

Makes sense
 
I have no idea how anyone could ever want to trade Aldridge (especially for GREG MONROE)

Teams are forced to double him because he's too much for one guy to defend. He can get his shot whenever he wants 1 on 1. It's that fucking simple.

That's an invaluable quality for a player to have, and it's the first thing I judge players on.

Aldridge scores 5 points in 5 seconds. He tied it with a three pointer then received the inbounds with 1.5 secs and hit a turn around fade away for the win as time expired.

Corrected it for you. :)
