If this team ever plays LA again the post season this year...Most improved matchup?

[apalisoc_9]

Aldridge is going to absolutely neutralize griffin.

I highly, highly doubt griffin can bully Aldridge...O

Not saying Aldridge is a better player than Griffin..he isn't IMO, but I think it's the one matchup I think we'd be so much better against with Aldridge on the team.

How does the the spurs match up now with other teams with the Aldridge addition?

[Kuestmaster]

Awful thread title, like all your takes.

[iManu]

Thought you didn't want Aldridge.

[JohnnyMax]

Aldridge > Griffin > Kawhi

[apalisoc_9]

Aldridge > Griffin > Kawhi

Go find a thread from another forum to copy, dumbass. This guy can't even come up with his own shit.

Kawhi>>>>>>>>>>>Any of those two

[Fireball]

Still too early. We only have the PS game against Miami (2 and a half quarters) for reference ... the offense already looked very potent despite 3pointers not falling - we had over 75 points with 5 minutes to go in the third. PnR defense could be worse than last season, so teams like the Clippers and Rockets are big challenges IMO.

If the spurs utilize Aldridge on the Pop or roll against Houston instead of the post upz that's going to take out Howard in the paint for a bit...That's huge, IMO.

As I said ... offense will not be a problem, but is that enough? In the end last year's team lost to the team that lost to the team that lost to the eventual NBA champion. I know it is about matchups and HCA, but will the defense be good enough to go through the West? I have no clue tbh

[SsKSpurs21]

when I saw LA, i just automatically assumed the Lakers...come to find out you meant clippers. my how the lakers have fallen....

[SuperCam]

What a faggot. Blake has been clearly better than LMAlpha in almost every matchup:

Just be glad your boy kiwi doesn't have to go against matt barnes again, tbh

[LongtimeSpursFan]

Stick to what your good at OP (Kawhi is great, Porker sucks). All your other threads are shite.

[Tuddy]

Having someone at the 4 who can move. Splitter shouldn't have been playing last postseason

[Tuddy]

LMA should be bullying everyone, dude is 6-11 & 275 and is strong as fuck.

They still can't score from the perimeter. LMA can't bully people on offense. SA will have to count on LMA hitting jumpers, as well as West coming up big, and some new blood rim attacking. Otherwise the LMA signing means nothing.

How does the Spurs durrr durrr

Do you talk as stupid as you type? Fuckin tard.

[BillMc]

I trust Pop over the long haul to outmaneuver Doc. We'd win the rematch, I think.

[Clipper Nation]

Blake has traditionally shitted on Aldridge, IIRC.

[playbonner]

No more Matt Barnes owning Kawhi

Astute :tu

[PrimeMinister]

Another spurstalk thread saturated with ad hominem and a direct lack of basketball talk. Good work fellas.

Yeah, I agree with apalisoc here actually. The match up would have been greatly different with a healthy Tiago last year, but having aldridge's range is going to be huge against a variety of teams with rim protectors that have given us fits. When tim sits, we can roll out a line up with west and LMA, or boris and LMA, and force DJ out of the paint. Even a declined Tony will be able to attack the rim and kick like we've seen for over a decade now. Spacing will be great, and by the time the post season rolls around LMA will prove to not only the NBA but this board that he is a willing and capable defender.

Not if we play Memphis.

Speaking of Barnes, someone point me to a thread I assume would have been made on this at the time:

Blake is a superior player. I don't see how he isn't. He's MILES ahead as a post passer, and a post up player IMO..He's close as a shooter too.

But at least this time, the spurs wound't be absolutely murdered in the PF position like last year. Just need Adlridge to be decent, IMO.

The numbers say LA is a much better defender than he's given credit for. And his whole game will improve being with Timmy, Pop and this team.

No he hasn't dumbass.
