    Interesting piece, one never know how accurate/fair this stuff is, but it does make LMA seem like an ass. And there is a Canzano piece that supports LMA - the opposite of Quicks. If Quick's piece is somewhat accurate glad to see MA go

    It is a lot about Aldridge but certainly ends passing the torch to Dame.

    Everyone will believe that LA is a monster because it's easier to stomach and gives the fan base hope for the future. Yea, we lost an all star and top PF, but now we're better off. Keep buying those season tickets.

    I feel a little bad for Aldridge when he starts crying the first time his new coach yells at him.

    Article said exactly what we already knew about him. Sucks to lose his talent but not his fragile ego.

    I heard a story third hand, so take it with a grain of salt. The team a couple years ago was flying back from somewhere in the south and an assistant coach was bringing back some peaches for himself/family. Some players were hungry so the assistant offered up his peaches which were immediately grabbed by a few of the closer players. None left when Aldridge wanted one. Hours later when they landed, the assistant asked Aldridge if he had plans for his few days off and Aldridge replied, "finding my own peaches I guess", and walked off.

    Well, I guess he heard San Antonio has some of the best peaches around.

    If you want to see evisceration, wait until Pop gets a load of LMA at practice.

    You Know Who is going to be in for a big surprise when he realizes that Pop isn't going to coddle him like that everyday, he just needed him to sign the paper.

    The contrast between the Quick article and the Canzano article is disorienting. Do both of these guys exist in the same universe?

    Regardless if it is Dame's team or not, you aren't going to win in the west when you have the roster that the Blazers have right now. Yes it is his team, but his team probably isn't winning more than 30 games next year.
