We Should Go After LaMarcus Aldridge

[DBC10]

Nah, I got Aldridge signing a 4yr max deal with the Knicks. I can see the Knicks trying to create a big 3 with Rondo, Melo and Aldridge.

Rondo is a shadow of his former self and is a head case if he couldn't play under Carlisle. Please stop Neptune lol.

Lol!

I wouldn't let one bad season fool you. Rondo has shown he can lead a team with 2 aging stars present(Pierce, Garnett). Just think what he can do with two star players around his age.

He did have a former star in Nowitzki though, and Ellis is still a top SG in the league while Parsons is the ultimate role player. With Rondo, you absolutely have to build around him and cater to his skillset, which is ridiculous since he can't shoot nor score effectively to warrant that kind of special treatment at this day and age.

Kawhi Leonard is great, he can do everytihng well. But he is not a superstar.

Kawhi is like in the mold of Pippen, you absolutely need him to ensure you win a chip. A great number 2 option and guards the best player from the 1 to 3 position.

pippen was a play maker. actually, play making was his biggest speciality. kawhi does not have that.

What? Kawhi has made strides every year on the offensive end, and this year was no different. Its easy to see how much he has grown in the last year. I consistently found myself saying "wow" when I watched the ABC Spurs/Clips game last Sunday. He was facing up on the perimeter and drilling long jumpers and 3s with ease, beating his man to the hole for gorgeous finishes, he can post up very well when the matchup warrants, and on top of that is a willing passer out of any of these situations. And that's not even taking into account what he brings defensively.

Don't confuse the fact he plays on one of the most balanced teams on the league for a lack of ability. Now, he is no Pippen (offensively), but to say he doesn't have play making ability in general is absurd. He's become a guy they can give the ball to on the wing and just say "make something happen."

Kawhi Averagin 21.5ppg, 1.6 steals, 2.8 assist, 7 rebounds, so far in this playoffs, them #'s suggest to me he is on his way to becoming a star if not already one

He's already a star in my book when he won Finals MVP at his young age. Not many guys in their careers that early can claim that.

Just a great, great all around player.

He might go to the spurs,but man do they have an ageing roster,duncan has 1 more season and pop said hes about to retire.I could see him going somewhere right on the cusp of contending.

I would rather have Lebron James to shore up the SF. I heard he is pretty good.

I heard that jordan used all his money on building a re-generating cell machine and has aged himself back to 23,its also confirmed he wants to sign with his old rival team,the pistons.
