Aldridge has taken more 3s this year and what does cutting out long range 2s for 3s have to do with defensive rebounding

Yes ... I just wanted to see if he realized that because I am sure that he did not.

Aldridge needs to add the 3 to his game and he is obviously starting.

Hhhhhmmmm really ??

I knew he took more 3s

of course you did

WHat gets me is that Aldrige offensively is a worse version of Melo yet that's okay. I am not even talking about F5 either but most people view him as a great offensive player even though he takes a lot of contested mid range jumpers.

yes. people are clueless and just like to say stuff and pound their chest.

Melo is a better offensive player than aldridge. there is no question about that.

you mean jason, right?

yes, Jr had his normal defensive miscues but had it going on O.

We've only been begging Fish and Proxy Phil

To get this kid developed properly since Game 1 of season

That's what you want if the goal is a high draft pick. I'm sure Phil and fisher will present some stats to prospective free agents this summer showing how many close games could have been won with that players services.

I don't think anyone would disagree

The game has more to it than offense right?

Aldridge better rebounder and defender

Which probably makes up the offensive gap whatever it may be

Therefore since Melo makes Max so should Aldridge

But if you guys have beefs with his contested offensive play

Don't bring him into any discussion for free agent signing at boo-koo bucks

There are 3 players that I want from Portland and they are Lopez, Matthews, and Leonard. They will probably have to drop one of Matthews or Lopez because they will max out Aldrige. They can go over the cap for all three but that will lock them up for years to come even with the exploding cap because Battum is up next summer and Liilard will be looking for a max extension.

I think Portland could be a good blueprint for the knicks but they hit on some homeruns in trades and FA. Wes Matthews was an underrated gem and Lopez could have been had by anyone almost. Let's not forget hitting on Lillard.

we are operating operation tank to a tee

They are trying really hard to win games

so flip it around ...

if aldridge deserves the max than melo deserves the max?

didn't you say that melo was worth about 14 million?

I think that aldridge deserves the max if he cuts out those stupid long 2's and turns them into 3's. His efficiency is awful.

As you say ... he is in the league for all these years and has made it to the second round only once ... and his playoff performances ...

I'm going off of current market standards

But in an ideal world there should only be a handful of players making max

It's something these dumb owners have yet to figure out

What qualifies a player as Max worthy

Trying to reverse timelines wont fly with me

I'll say it again I'm one who doesn't think Gasol should get Max

But he will and justifiably so based on market

so if you were portlands GM, what would you pay him?

If L.A. pulled the same bullcrap that Melo pulled on us[I highly doubt it]

Then I'm looking into a S&T towards the team he's threatening to leave to

Because I still have Lillard and some very complementary pieces

Ummmmm but if he's truly committed to staying with no BS then yes I'm paying him Max

I'm gonna figure San Antonio and Dallas age out and we're 1 piece

Away from winning it all with a exploding Cap on the horizon

See the difference Portland is in contention, has the pieces around L.A.

And are a near lock to win 50gms a season in the West

They are as close as they can be to winning

And that's all any franchise can ask for, is for a shot

We're not anywhere close to that and we already have a maxed out dude

lmfao ... treading water

its fine ... you have a right to be biased

Once again giving 30yr olds max is not my thing

But you asked me a loaded question gun to head

I answered honestly, I think you think I'm in love with Aldridge

Believe me I'm not
