    LA is playing amazing and if he keeps it up the #1 pick in this years draft isn't worth him. The idea I keep coming back to is playing LMA at center and picking up a PF to play next to him. Might be the best solution, still leaves us with a big "?" on who to get.

    the lottery, I assume.

    I'd say no,personally. With Davis the likely #1. His best case scenario is something like Garnett. And while it's likely Aldridge might never be the top talent Garnett was, he's not a guy that's going to carry you to a title. If there was a SG/SF can't miss prospect, maybe I would. But I feel like with Davis, we'd still be stuck in a similar situation as now, looking for a dominant closer in order to make us elite. Instead, you're just resetting the team for 3 years or more. No thanks.
