    Please, that trade is so uneven. There would have to be at least 2 more draft picks thrown in. Unprotected too.


    Think San Antonio would throw in their 1sts for 18 and 20?

    You guys see that golfer that tapped an Alligator to make it go back in the water a few weeks ago? Then a day or two later another golfer saw one and jumped like a scared cat.

    LA is the second guy, Nurk would probably be the first guy. Our scouting needs to find a way to identify that.

    I'll never trust LA in the clutch just like I wouldn't trust Uncle Cliffy. Mentality is a huge part of the game.

    LA complained about being tired after a game. Nurk handed his teeth to the trainer to be re-implanted that night, then played the rest of the game.

    Nurk will hand other people their teeth if shit goes down. I'd expect LA to run, being that big he's probably never had to fight. Could be wrong.

    I don't care how he's used, he's not as good in San Antonio...I've seen him for two years play there...it's just not a good fit. Don't have to be a hater to see it...Jeff Van Gundy and Mark Jackson talked about it as have other commentators...he looks a step slow on every play and can't pass out of double teams...you've seen him enough to make a comparison on basketball alone....nothin' to do with fan hate

    He arrived in San Antonio overweight and out of shape and has never turned that all the way around. It was shocking to me at the time because I thought he'd show up in SA looking like Dwight Howard but instead he looked like Glen Davis. He just looks awkward and slow now.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    I get what you're trying to say. Aldridge has been frozen out by his San Antonio teammates. Interesting theory.

    Aldridge did play well in Game 6 vs Rockets. Let's see how the WCF develop from here on.

    From being maybe the 40th or so best Blazer ever to being a footnote on a dying dynasty in it's last throes of significance.

    Fitting and deserved.
