I was stunned when I looked at Aldridge's numbers the other day. I had no idea he was playing so well.

I think LaMarcus Aldridge will get it. Portland's an even bigger surprise team than LA. The Blazers' improvement is remarkable, and Aldridge has a lot to do with it.

I think it's only right that I say haha to all the people that thougt I was stupid for wanting to trade Odom for RJ.
Mitch could have made that trade to when the Bobcats were going to do the 3way with Gerald. Lakers could have easily made it Odom for RJ and they didn't.
I think that nontrade was possibly the worst nontrade ever. It is almost as bad as the Kwame trade because if they would have either kept Butler or made the RJ deal they would be the best team in the League and have a 30 and 3 record.

Agree,

With the young team they have and the record they have in this wild west I think he would get it also.

I see what you're saying about the points being the main factor which would point towards Aldridge or Gay. If i have the vote it would be

1) Gay
2) Aldridge
3) Bynum
4) Salmons

Rudy is the top scorer on a team with Gasol and Mike Miller..that's pretty impressive.

I won't add Kaman because his numbers increased due to his flop last year. Jefferson same thing. I can't reward them for sucking last year.

i love when people know what trades were available and what trades were not like people on this forum are actual NBA executives. If you know that trade was available why didnt you give us a heads up on the ariza trade?

your status went from worst poster to good poster back to worst poster.


oh, and about the op.................aldridge has been amazing this year. i get to see pretty much all the jailblazer games and it's going to be scary when he lines up with oden.

Aldridge deserves it and Bynum will get his next year when he goes from 12 PPG to 22 PPG! :D

Star, he's scoring 8 more points a game and NJ still sucks as bad as last year.

So how can you say adding yet another small forward to this team would help us?

Odom's playing pretty well as the PF next to a dominant center imo.

Yeah. Like I said when McMillan left Seattle, it was a huge mistake by Seattle. He's a very good coach.

Star will never acknowledge Odom or Walton as a good players, it is in his DNA.
