    They need to get him shots. This hands-off thing has got to end. Pop's made bad choices in the past, like hack-a-Jordan last year. Someone needs to tell him to wake up.

    I'm not blaming him for the jump shooting struggles, I expect him to adjust well to the players around him, and vice-versa..players go through shooting slumps, it happens..

    Doug Collins's analysis of Danny Green's struggles was surprisingly accurate..same logic applies to Aldridge, too..

    His rebounding has been impressive.

    The Spurs have been missing an elite rebounder (other than Duncan) for a long time.

    That's a bigger deal than his offense IMO.

    Here's my recommendation: slow down a little, tough guy, & breathe. That way you won't post so many spelling & punctuation mistakes. Your chocolate fudge takes are annoying, but I'm fine with it... That's just how your inexperienced little mind works.

    Nothing to worry about from a fan's or team's perspective, especially this early. However, we should only hope this isn't messing with LMA's psyche though.

    He seemed upset he wasn't getting no touches and when he did get touches late he was getting rid of the ball right away and not even looking to score. He was still at least playing hard on D though
    I was thinking that in the 4th but then I remembered he looked passive right from the start of the game.

    Kawhi probably gave him his cold.

    You have all said it. His concentration and effort is on D. We need him focused there, not only bc lack of Tiago, but Timmy is not everlasting, despite our thought that he is.

    On offense he needs to get it going early and he didn't in this game. The game stayed close early, with everyone (not just him) bricking shots early, but then, some guys got hot, and he was ignored for long stretches. If you don't incorporate him for long stretches, when the game is close and you need him at that point to close out a game, he wasn't confident on his shot. Maybe it was the right choice from him since Manu and Kawhi had the hot hand, and we won the game.

    So the concern is not so much about this game, but that it got to the point where he is deferring to that degree. That can't happen.

    Jabari Young said LMA getting over a cold a few days ago, and Kawhi was feeling just a little better before this game...It sounds like the guys weren't feeling really good tonight

    There were times when he had the ball in the blocks against Plumlee, and didn't/couldn't get a shot he liked. The whole team was clanking shots, and by the second half nobody except Manu looked like they wanted to take a shot. They passed up a bunch of open looks, only to get forced into taking much worse shots.

    They held their opponent to 80 points, won by 13, only had 6 TO's, got a load of assists, and outscored Portland in the paint 36-24. And you cheese s are seriously trying to read the look on LMA's face to find something to piss yourselves about? Did you ever think that maybe it was because Aldridge led the Spurs with 23 points, the first time they played Portland, so they made sure he wasn't going to beat them tonight? Or do you just not think the other team has anything to do with what happens on the floor?

    The Spurs mostly took what Portland gave them. They took a BUNCH of open shots, and they just kept rattling out. If those shots had been dropping, they would have sagged off LMA, and he would have made them pay. He may have been a little off tonight, but the way this team is put together nobody has to play hero ball. There are 71 games left, and Aldridge will get his share of the buffet.

    Maybe because I remember a time when the posts here weren't so painfully stupid. You should know - you did your share to lower the average BB IQ around here.


    For the record, tell me what part of the things I said above aren't true.

    Jefferson 2.0? That would suck.... Kawhi and Parker would have to carry this team.

    Chill man, you're way too angry.

    The OP has a point. LMA wasn't involved in the second half. Part of that is on the team but part of it is also on him. There was a play late in the 4th were he had a mismatch, Manu fed him, and he immediately kicked it back out. It was strange. If it was TD or something then it wouldn't be worthy of a thread but LMA being sensitive is well publicized. He should be getting more touches which is what this thread is about. He did play good D and rebounded well though which is a good sign.

    I'm amazed how many people jump the cliff after one bad game from a player. Must live exhausting lives. That girl you're going after doesn't respond to a text fast enough? Oh my god she's totally banging another dude that ho
