    Idk, if you put Ed Davis’ mind into Nurkic’s body... that player would be better than Aldridge

    Aldridge's game is the opposite of All-Star Game-suitable. He's like Patrick Ewing or Karl Malone-without-John-Stockton.

    Funny how the Spurs are still doing pretty damn well with Aldridge and no-names and old guys.

    LA played it off, but you know it killed him inside to hear that.

    It's not up to the team to do a sign-and-trade. Aldridge would've had to choose a team without cap room and we'd have to want something from that team. Since the Spurs were under the cap they could just sign him. It didn't matter what the Blazers wanted.

    Aldridges game is not well suited for the all-star game. It is, how would you say...boring as fuck to watch. We will get to watch him put up a few rhythm jump shots tomorrow. Maybe he will finish 4/4 on uncontested jumpers.

    What pick do you think Steph took Dame with?

    How do you think the draft went down? We could probably come close to nailing it with what we know now. We should get our crack team of geniuses to solve this case.
