aldridge shoots the same damn jumper in the same damn spot 1000x times. beyond annoying to watch. but kudos
It feels like yesterday when I was watching Duncan against Malone/Barkley, what goes around comes around.
No matter what anyone else do on this team, Duncan is the foundation and that foundation is just not good enough for a le anymore. I would love to see Duncan join LeBron to get his 5th ring.

Aldridge is unguardable.
not even Diaw could defend him that well. Stop being emo.
Yeah not sure why they changed the D, Tim was way worse than Boris...
Not a spurs fan TBH. Go find duncantalk.com
Right, our le window was closed and we just made the Finals last year. Give me a freaking break. Many posters on this site lack common sense.
If we meet them explain how it's a non issue Nono? I just want to hear what you have to say.
We will not be meeting in the playoffs. Irrelevant. Jesus ing emo.
First of all, let me tell you I don't think we'll meet them. IMO, they're 1st, at most 2nd round fodder, depending on the opposition. Jumpshooting teams rarely get far in the playoffs.
The Spurs will need to gameplan for him, but Aldrige is a soft big, you need to attack him and wear him out. Pop also is not going to show his cards right now, but the actual double-team should come from Batum's guy (possibly Leonard). Doesn't have to happen every play, but the Spurs have mixed it up before. Playoffs are a slower pace, a completely different type of game.
kiss of death tbh
That was the game plan - to not double Lamarcus. The Spurs did well with that the first half. Coach Boylen did a good job, but I thought maybe there could have been more adjustments made, but I'm no expert. Wow, did Ginobili want this win.
Splitter has done a solid job on aldridge the last couple years. Probably plays him better than anyone else does In the nba. He was missed there tonight and could of possibly slowed him down a bit
I agree with that and I have yet to see them in the playoffs with that team they have now so you very well could be right. They would be scary though regardless to face. I think the Spurs could edge them but it would not be easy. Good post.
Aldridge is like a poor man's 2011 Finals Dirk (that's actually a compliment to Aldridge).
Lamarcus has generally played well in the playoffs, and he already did in 3 playoffs, so I don't expect pressure to affect him, but the rest of the team is a different story... Mo Williams has always been underwhelming in the postseason...
You know, not trying to talk them down, just the way I see it. Could be wrong.
sorry just haunted by the "non-issues" and Manu ting the bed later on.
but I agree, I don't think Spurs have given Portland their best by any means, but their jump shooting is really pissing me off.
Aldridge is a great player, but what did Tim accomplish in his first 7 seasons?
This whole team is a poor mans 2011 mavs, stotts has it setup just like them imo. But that mavs team![]()
We don't have to compare that though, we know.......
Lamarcus is a lot like a taller David West the way he plays moreso than Dirk.
Still get the feeling that the Spurs as a whole aren't trying overly hard
It's amazing that Duncan is even in the conversation against Aldridge. He's 37. You know what Shaq was doing at 37? Struggling to walk up the court for the Celtics.
