    Sometimes I think the only NBA some posters on here watch is the local games on Comcast.

    Well he is a two time all star and should have been 3 time. How many all star games have Monroe played in?

    Don't think I wouldn't be insanely surprised and excited to get Monroe; just not for the price of Aldridge.

    I count actual appearances. Age is not a factor. How many titles did lj win? He is the best player to play the game for the last 20 years.

    lol. oh okay. So you faulted Aldridge as a 22 year old because he didn't have any AS appearances yet. Right?

    You know how rare it is to make an AS game as a 22 year old?

    How many players in the nba make the allstar game? It's pretty rare for everyone to make the all star game. Hell; there was a couple snubs this year.

    Your argument is getting so wobbly I don't think you believe it anymore. You have a nonsensical retort to things that just don't make sense.

    You haven't watched Monroe play much, its okay.

    Exactly. People keep saying Monroe doesn't get double teamed, as if that's the selling point. How often did LaMarcus get double teamed at 22? Saying age is not a factor when talking about accomplishments like making the all star game doesn't make any sense.
