Marc Stein: Spurs are #1 on LaMarcus Aldridge's list

[Kori Ellis]

Pretty soon Pop will just tell him to "get over himself" and move on to picking up scrubs.

[Roger Freemason Jr.]

this guy, seriously.

[BatManu20]

The Lakers getting a second meeting with Aldridge now per Woj hahaha wtf is going on

LaMarcus Aldridge is considering the possibility of taking a visit or two in free agency, sources tell Yahoo. No decision is imminent.

[RD2191]

I knew this scrub wouldn't be worth it. I told you all weeks ago that this dude was a loser on and off the court.

[Baam]

Damn if he doesn't end up with us that'd be tragic... What would be the plan then...

[hsxvvd]

If he wanted to be here I get the feeling he'd already be here.

Move on.

He's a much a Drama Queen as Lebron.

[cd98]

This is just so damn weird now. I don't get why Aldridge would turn down money to go to PHX. He could have had a better (or at least equal) supporting cast along with more money just staying in PDX.

The .

Warmer climate? No pressure to win?

[dbestpro]

It would be hilarious if they could make a move for Hibbert, and West, and just pull their offer from LMA leaving him no choice but to go to a non-playoff caliber team.

[loveforthegame]

Unreal. This guy serious?

[Budkin]

Jesus Christ he must really NOT want to play with the Spurs... now the Lakers are back in...

[timvp]

Ah well. Five rings, maggots.

[houston spurs fan]

this guy. Move on. We will bury the Suns next year. Oh, and Steve Nash too...

[JMarkJohns]

The MFer met with like 6 or 7 teams. What the is he talking about? #cocaine is one of a drug.

It was discussed yesterday that his camp might hold second interviews with contending teams.

this in guy. I thought he wasn't all about the attention.

[Splits]

What's "taking a visit or two"? Is that British?

[Darius Bieber]

[siraulo23]

dridge

[Robz4000]

I don't want him on the Spurs anymore. Rescind the Splitter trade, sign West, fill out the roster, and call it an offseason

[Bartleby]

Pretty soon Pop will just tell him to "get over himself" and move on to picking up scrubs.

with the way LA is stretching this all out, I could probably live with that.

I still think he chooses SA, but this is getting ridiculous.

[DPG21920]

OMG. It's really starting to look like LMA to Suns. Pop was tired of Splitter's mysterious injury issues so he probably wanted to go in a different direction regardless.

But would the Suns randomly start dumping players without knowledge that LMA was coming? Not as likely, IMO.

WTF.

You just argued that Spurs were justified in doing that because it sent such a powerful message, even without knowing LMA would commit. Now you are backing into the logic that "well, Pop was tired of Splitter anyways, but the Suns, THE SUNS must know!"

Look, same logic applies here. If you think the Spurs had to do that to "show LMA how serious they were and have less variables" that's the same for the Suns. Especially when the players they moved were Granger who shouldn't be in the NBA, Reggie who doesn't look very good (IMO) and the worst Morris Twin who isn't that good of a player anyways. SUNS should have done that move 100 times out of 100 just for cap space, even with no targets.

[Mugen]

Uh I'm legit turned off this now. Go get David West and some other parts.

[z0sa]

So this is how the Post Duncan era is gonna look every season, isn't it?

[BillMc]

Almost kind of not wanting LMA at this point... he's clearly not "over himself" is he?
