    His shot chart for this playoff series.

    This guy is a fucking BEAST in this playoff series. I think if this Aldridge was there when Roy was at his heyday, we would have made it past the first round many games.

    No wonder he missed those free throws last night. Clearly that's a bad spot for him. Maybe he should take FTs from the elbow.

    Well of course the report shows he should shoot his free-throws from the paint!

    We should start a petition for LA to be able to shoot 18 footers from the left side of the court as free throws!

    For real...very unique and versatile skill set and he seems to be a good leader. I couldn't be happier with the man right now.

    Over the past two years, he has taken the leap we all hoped Sheed would. That leap has to happen above the neck.

    I'm glad to hear for the first time he feels appreciated by his teammates. Clearly, he must be an insular guy, so my guess is the team made it a point to reach out to him and let his know his importance.

    Honestly, after watching LA and Dame in the playoffs this year, I think both are poised for a huge push into superstardom next season. Not just All-Stars, but superstars. We're so fortunate to have both of them. I hope we sign LA to an extension this summer.
