    Must be a mistake.

    Greg Monroe should have won.

    PORTLAND, Ore. (March 18, 2013) – Portland Trail Blazers forward/center LaMarcus Aldridge was named the NBA's Western Conference Player of the Week, it was announced today by the NBA.

    Aldridge led the NBA in scoring (27.0), while ranking tied for 13th in rebounds (10.7) and tied for third in blocks (3.00). He shot 56.4 percent from the field and converted all 19 of his free throw attempts, the most in the league this week without a miss.

    The two-time NBA All-Star recorded at least 20 points and 10 rebounds in all three games. Aldridge now ranks third in the NBA with 20 games this season of at least 20 points and 10 rebounds.

    Aldridge wins the award for the third time in his career after taking the honor twice during the 2010-11 season. The seventh-year Trail Blazer joins Clyde Drexler and Brandon Roy as Portland’s only players to garner the award at least three times.

    The Trail Blazers went 2-1 this week, including home wins against New York and Detroit. Aldridge led the team in scoring, field goals made, free throws made and blocked shots.

    Washington’s John Wall was named the NBA's Eastern Conference Player of the Week. Other nominees for the honors were Atlanta’s Al Horford, Denver’s Kosta Koufos, Miami’s LeBron James and Dwyane Wade, Minnesota’s Ricky Rubio, Oklahoma City’s Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook, and San Antonio’s Tim Duncan.

    Why does every thread have to turn into an "I told you so" jackoff session?

    I'm not saying I'm surprised they do, I'm just wondering why they must.

    I guess it would be similar to those that want him traded, to post ridiculous rants about how he quit. Does seem old doesn't it? the good thing is Aldridge has more positive impact for this team than the negative ones. So the battles have been a bit lopsided so far this season.

    You do realize that the "aldridge quit" thread is from Kingspeed, right?

    Well, a few days after the silly "Aldridge Has Quit" thread, along with numerous other threads bashing LMA, he wins Western Conference Player of the Week.

    Out of all "I told you so" moments, this is probably the most relevant of the season. I can't blame posters who defended LMA over the last week for rubbing it in the face of the negative LMA posters.

    There are almost 400 posts in that thread, though. KingSpeed is hardly the only one who made foolish posts in that thread.

    Oh don't worry, the "let's trade Aldridge" bandwagon used that thread for their champaign among the many other threads regarding the matter.

    What is your point? If a poster shows that he doesn't know jack about the game when he posts negitive crap about the players, why shouldn't he be called out?

    Maybe he should learn the game, then post?

    Go Blazers
