Blazers are well-positioned to reboot franchise post-Aldridge, w/ 12 players under contract, average age under-25 and $26M in cap space.

For the 15th year in a row.

Pop's willingness to coach out the rest of his contract is a huge factor. Aldridge can be assured that he will have Pop, Kawhi, and Danny on the team for the life of his contract. Hell, with the upcoming cap jumps the Spurs could have another max slot in 2017.

[jsandiego]

Holy fuck. I had to interrupt the celebration (welcome aboard, Lamarcus, btw) to say how fucking stupid and misinformed you are. This could be the most ignorant take I've ever seen on Spurstalk. NOBODY hit their fucking average against Bowen unless they took twice as many shots. People forget that Kobe Bryant was an abnormally efficient scorer when he was a useful role player on a good team. Making Kobe have to put up 25 shots to get 25 points is amazing defense, and it took shots out of other players' hands. "Making them work for it" means turning an egocentric superstar into a chucker, but here's the key: You have to do it without sending the guy to the line, which Bowen was absolutely amazing at, because he defended with his feet. Bowen could cover Chauncey Billups and Steve Nash as well as covering Dirk Nowitzki and Pau Gasol, frustrating them, forcing bad shots, taking them out of their game, and not getting his team into the penalty.

The Spurs would have two banners, not five, hanging in the arena if he hadn't been on the team. There wouldn't have been a Green and Leonard if there hadn't first been a Bowen, who was the prototype of the 3 and D player teams are paying huge money for on the free agent market today.
THIS right here. Makes you wonder if this is a post 2007 SPURS fan making these claims.

Oh well -- carry on with the celebration!

The most devious part of what the scumbag did: even at the point Olshey must have known LaPuke was leaving, his hands were semi-tied. Thanks to LaPuke's public lies (that he wanted to stay) Olshey could never have sold a trade to Allen or the fans. LaPuke made sure we wouldn't do a Love type trade and get actual value for him.

Idk. They lost a lot of defense with Perkins and Thabo. The Thunder have a good offensive ceiling, but that's it. Durant being the biggest question mark makes them a mystery, but I don't think they will be a threat.

I was a fan of his on Portland but mainly because he ended up on my fantasy team the last 4 years so I watched him play more, rooted even harder for him in that manner. I guess that is how I became a fan of his.

Yeah, to get to 300 now just wouldn't be the same.

Like like Kobe refusing to retire from a lottery team to reach some scoring mark.

I feel like all LaMarcus-related topics/articles should continue in this thread.

About 90% of this board gave up on him.

[thunder]

LeMarcus Aldridge is an overrated soft jumpshooting big. The Spurs are not going to be able to guard a pick and roll to save their lives. The offense will stall when it meets the hands of Aldridge simply because he ain't the type of player to thrive in a ball moving system like that of the Spurs. Don't get me wrong, he's talented as fuck. Congrats.

OKC-San Antonio WCF just like ole times.

[manufan10]

Have you ever seen what he looks like? He looks like a dorky ass Louis CK.

:lol No, I have never seen an actual picture of him.

As soon as the LMA announcement occurred, he said :cry "Built not bought, tho." :cry Aiming it at Spurs' fans who had taunted LBJ and the Heat. He's been downplaying the signing all day. What a bitch. :lol

[AFBlue]

Next great mystery is what number he'll wear. I'll guess 23 since that's what he wore at UT.

Look for Spurs to crowd the shooters and push the ball handler into LMA and Duncan much like they did with the twin towers. They may give up some pick and roll plays, but they will be much better guarding the three with two mobile bigs in the paint.

Snipit from the Ken Berger article. I think he illustrates really well how this is a great pairing of a player and organization, through it's coach, that care about the game and winning. Good read imho.

http://mweb.cbssports.com/nba/writer/ken-berger/25233160/popovich-spurs-keep-legacy-alive-by-landing-lamarcus-aldridge


Popovich was right in his depiction of free agency as a needless dog-and-pony show -- midnight phone calls and meetings, overdone recruiting pitches, fancy presentations about branding and image and all the bells and whistles that Pop and the Spurs have long stood steadfastly against. In Aldridge, Popovich found a kindred basketball spirit, a 29-year-old who is serious about the game, dedicated to his craft and inquisitive beyond his years.

At a time on the NBA calendar flooded with flash and dash but often devoid of substance, Popovich found a willing dance partner who cared about the same things. In San Antonio, it's all about basketball and legacy, and it just so happened that those were the two most important things to Aldridge, too.

But the Spurs will need new owners b/c Holt, et al., won't want to go into the luxury tax.

Spurs were obviously the front runner, but by all indications he had several questions that needed to be answered by any team that wanted to sign him. The Spurs, as he probably expected, came through with answers to every single question he had. So, they maintained the lead. But they easily could've lost it by bumbling through the pitch.

In the end it was a self-fulfilling prophecy though. LaMarcus liked the Spurs because of their solid core and well-run front office. So it's no wonder they came through.

Wow, LMA LOVES him some Tim Duncan.

That alone will help with any of the issues we've read about with the Aldridge/Lillard dynamic. He won't get jealous of his idol while Tim's there, and then won't have to even try in order to be a more vocal "face" of the franchise then Leonard. Good situation all around.
