Exclusive The official Lamarcus Aldridge free agency thread (1 Viewer)

[1eyejack]

Personally if he leaves hope it's to the Lakers or someone besides the Spurs....... And yes I hate the Lakers ( make it easier for me to root against Lamarcus if he's a Laker)


My reason is Spurs have no assets to do a sign and trade. Don't think Aldridge or his agent want to leave money on table.

What does the Bible say about lying?

Not that it matters much since "God hates the Portland Trail Blazers".

stay mediocre? We were never mediocre to begin with!

Soon as Wes went down we became instantly mediocre in terms of the Western Conference.

@WojYahooNBA: Lakers didn't make strong impression in Aldridge meeting, sources say. Spurs can close on him. LMA expected to make decision fairly soon.

Thanks for the 9 years bro! Fact is, you would have been 35 at the end of your contract and it was probably time to move on. I've come around to the idea of you leaving, and now its happened. Peace!

P.S. Don't win too many championships

Isn't he gonna be 35 or 34 at the end of his contract with any team; I don't quite understand why that would be a reason for him to leave?

The longer we wait for the news on Aldridge, the better I feel about our chances. The meeting is over and he hasn't decided yet.

 

[Chris Craig]

Of course he hasn't its a ploy...he was never going to leave

 

[BlazerCaravan]

I'm trying to feel nothing.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

But I will say I only own one jersey.

Yeah, I feel the same way. I just want to know if I need to move on or celebrate

Who said it was over

Maybe they all went out bowling?

I agree. Although it doesn't look good, I have believed all along he just wants to enjoy the free agent process because it will probably be his last of this magnitude. The rumor was his mom was going to be with him at his meetings which makes me think she is just there to enjoy it also....guess we will find out.

Maybe Aldridge was the wolf in sheep's clothing so Neil can lock up Monroe?

As much as I love The Godfather Plan, I think we get one or the other, and SA gets one or the other.

Me too, but it would be awesome if Im right!

 

[BlazerCaravan]

I just hope if we do get Monroe, we play him at center while starting Leonard. It'd be so goofy it just might work!

It definitely would be better than putting Monroe at PF, where he is absolutely terrible defensively

Are you familiar with Occam's Razor?

Yes, lets hope its not applied here

 

[RoyToy]

Aldridge is gone and he's never coming back

 

[magnifier661]

WRONG!

Depending on the team, he will see us 1-2 times during the Regular season

yeah but once he got back we wouldn't have been "mediocre"

Fakers "fans" feel soooo... defeated much like their "players!"

Don't hold your breath. He didn't set meetings with 7 teams just to get the ass-rimming.
