Called this back in November, tbhhow quickly 90% of the forum did a 180, tbh..
6 in points in a close game from the 19 millions man? are you kidding me?
Called this back in November, tbh
He's been missing from more than just this one game unfortunately. You know it's been bad when you distinctly recall the only really good scoring game he had bc it stands out around a pool of mediocrity. He shot well against the Magic and the game was over early. ... He's been at 40% since 1/21 last I checked and I picked that day in arbitrary fashion bc of the Gasol injury. Luckily he does a lot of other things so it's tough to complain about any particular single bad shooting night, but when he's paid like a star and supposed to carry the scoring weight nightly and it doesn't happen with any regularity it's a worry. It won't surprise to see Pau back in the SL if it continues.
I am hoping dude bounces back but it's been a while oF me hoping that.
Hos crucial is it for him to hit a stride at this point and is he going to?
Him and the team need to meet half way. On the one hand, he needs to take (partial) ownership of this team and stop worrying about ruffling feathers and stepping on toes. I'm not suggesting making a spectacle, but he needs to let Leonard know that he's missing him wide open on a lot of pick and pops and he needs to get in the post, especially when he has a clear advantage and demand the damn ball. On the other hand, I don't care how badly he's struggling, they need to stop treating him like he's an ancillary offensive player because they're more than likely not getting past the 2nd round if he remains that.
I still think his long term future with this team will be decided in the playoffs. Get to the WCF and give the Warriors a series and he's probably staying for the long haul. Lose to the Rockets in the WCSF (especially if it occurs in embarrassing fashion) and I could see both sides mutually wanting to end this.
It is safe to say that this the new normal for Aldridge..
There is after all a logic to Clippers/Rockets fans licking their chops over who get to face the Spurs in 2nd round instead of the Warriors team-- even a wounded GS team..
Agreed, most of the other top Western teams would love to be in the Spurs bracket.
Well Lamarcus apparently still in a slump.
i feel bad for him tbh, he was trying hard to score yesterday but couldnt hit . i dont think hes lacking effort, probably just confidence issues at this point. not being an all star this year probably really bothered him and he is not mentally strong like Duncan or Kawhi and is letting it affect his game
He will be Fine
The only players safe on the roster should be Kawhi and Murray. It is staggering how much dead weight is on this team.
Need a summer of 2009 like hard reboot.
