For the last time I wish people would stop talking about LaMarcus Aldridge like he's some sort of stud. He's the anti-clutch, the good player who can't raise his game to another level. He fucked us at Texas with his weak ass play in the NCAA's and he'll never be a clutch guy for the Blazers.
I guess 2 nights earlier in the sweet 16 when he carried them to a win with 26-13 peformance that it didn't matter ??
How much better would he have looked playing alongside a true PG like DJ Augustin instead of Derrick Gibson who thought that he was the star of the team ???
He is extremely athletic, runs like a gazelle, has range to 18 feet, a great jump hook, and is unselfish to boot. What's not to like ??
It is gonna be scary when and hopefully if L.A and Oden are healthy and patroling the paint for the Blazers. He is the perfect compliment for Oden and along with Roy they have the foundation of a championship caliber team. If they upgrade their PG play look out....
But for tonite I doubt they win and if they do does it matter. Not really.
I went to UT and knew the kid from his days in the metroplex. I like the kid, but he's the prototypical talent with a lack of gumption. He could grow to become a clutch player who can take a team to great places, but that's probably the hardest thing for a kid to do. I didn't just watch the LSU game, I've seen him play and develop for years, and I just don't see it in him. He'll be a good complimentary piece for the NBA, but with Oden's knees going to shit before he even sets foot on the court I don't like the Blazers' chances of going far with that front line. If Aldridge leaves and gets paired with a great cast of players in a great team atmosphere he could be really good, but I don't think he'll ever live up to the high first round expectations.Quote:
