    Well, Pops has send players down to the DLeague to get them in line. That particular technique won't work. Neither will yelling.

    Are they going to run as much of their offense through him that he did?
    Will he get annoyed at their attention to Leonard?
    What happens when they start losing?

    I agree with everything Quick wrote in this one. That's exactly the impression that I have from Aldridge. Quiet. Brooding. Jealous. Bitter.

    I'm glad he's gone, but I wish we would have gotten something in return.

    I am not happy, though I understand your position. With 2 allstars, we were 1 guy away from having a "Big 3." Now, we have a Big 1.

    Absolutely correct Wiz. I really wanted him back because of this. But that foundation was really built around Aldridge being 1a.

    At least with this foundation, we have a bonafide batman

    I think popovich has a way of calling out even his stars but doing it in his humorous way, and also he has the rep and cred so he can get away with it. Maybe Stotts and Olshey should have tried it sometime, but maybe it would have failed and they would have got the blame for Aldrich leaving.

    Now they've done it. They've disrespected Aldridge. Now he's going to be butthurt for the next 4 years because someone else on his team is thought of more highly by some of the team's fans.

    Nice to see a national piece talking about what so many in Portland already knew.
