After 3 hours, even Aldridge was like, you're right Bledsoe and Morris are your best players.

If you have to trade Tucker you do it.

Kieff has more talent and would make our front court extremely imposing.

YOu get rid of tucker and marcus if you can.

Suns have McDonough, Hornacek, Bledsoe, Brandon Knight, Tyson Chandler and Earl Watson in the room with LMA.

Honestly, Tucker may go more to playing more the sg. like a couple years ago if we got LMA. Down the streach this year with Knight out I think he reminded people of how effective he is at the two. He isnt a WORSE shooter than Archie, plays much better defense, and has fire about his game, is a motivated individual.

I hope we offered him a 2 year max deal with a player option in the second, with a promise to max him out after he opts out. Would be a gamble with a safety net for him. Couldn't say no to that, could he? :P

Don't think we have much of a choice salary wise. Either him or Kieff have to go.

the more time that passes as Aldridge doesn't sign with us ,the more he probably rationalizes and signs with SA.

I think our best chance to sign him was on the spot with the emotion running high kinda selling the dream vs selling the reality the spurs can win a title next year for sure vs us not sure.

Hey great effort and let's hope for the best!

I think our biggest obstacle is his son's location, not the spurs.

I would be overjoyed. Getting LMA + ridding ourselves of the burden of Tucker+at least one of the Morrii

I think the fact that the Spurs had to trade Splitter to make room for LMA is to our advantage.

LMA said he does not want to play C, and he will need to do that when Duncan needs to rest or is injured.

I think they have Baynes too, he is a decent C.

at least we know that LMA likes Chandler making this an understandable signing going all in for LMA.


OMFG. McD you genius! :lol:
