    I wouldn't, but Conley is better right now. Never a fan of Teague. Calderon is a joke that knows how to shoot.

    Between Andre and Camby at the high post, LA led the league in dunks just a couple years back. But as I've mentioned umpteen times, there can only be one guy on the low block and Thomas Robinson and Lopez are not High Post threats. This means that Aldridge will be primarily operating from the high post again.

    So sure, Lillard wasn't as great last season at getting LA easy low post looks as Miller was, but Miller wouldn't have been nearly as good at this if Portland didn't have an effective High Post player on the roster allowing LA to set up down low.

    btw... LA has been taking Timmy D's lunch money for years now in head to heads primarily because Pop won't send the double team

    Don't forget those pick-and-rolls with Rudy for the easy alley-oops.
