go with Rashard, that way you don't end up with too much of a symbiotic relationship between Aldridge and Roy. Because some nights when Roy is hot Aldridge's #'s will suffer and of course the reverse could also happen. Not too mention Rashards 3's can really help lock up a cat pretty quick.

I'd take Lewis as well. Both players should have similar season's and Lewis is top-20/30 player whereas LMA is more around 40'ish

i'm avoiding rashard this year and the 10 game suspension isn't a huge deal for me...

but the fact that he now isn't going to be using this performance enhancer could affect his game. granted, it didn't seem like he was taking horse steroids but a quarter of a step lost in basketball could have a huge effect on his game.

Is this 9 cat? You could argue that you should have taken Shard over Calderon. Shard played 11 more games than Jose last season. Is Troy Murphy still around? If he is, forget Aldridge.

If I had to choose between Rashard and Aldridge I'd go with Aldridge given your previous choices. I think Lewis makes the team too suspect on blocks. Lewis may get more 3s but I think it's easier to pick up a decent 3pt shooter later on in the draft than it is to pick up steals/blocks.
