    Well shut the up already. You're the one melting down in every thread. If you can't handle a little trolling then you need to gtfo.

    I'm actually surprised that's the only heart joke anyone's made about LMA in this thread. I mean, sure it's in poor taste and all, but when has that ever stopped ST?

    Found this vid just now:



    Stuff like this is exactly why Pop went after Gasol. Those are all great looks for LMA. Pau gets credit for being a passing big, but he didn't do anything like this last year.

    This is the one post i will comment on:

    i have 7pm's that i'm not even going to look at (or any other thread that i can clearly see are bait attempts)

    It's my belief i was talking to you right up until SA & then your following post in the t-shirt thread.

    After that...it was clear to me your handle was being controlled. (again i dont have 100% proof and i cant cbf showing the first pm from sa about the t-shirt post)

    i dont want any with the board....chinook made this personal by the end of it when i offered multiple escapes for him.

    So the ****....i dont care if he runs the place.... like i said ...it had me feeling paranoid and the board was frozen for a few days.

    look at all the hate in this place.

    i have been defending myself....i get ppl thought i was someone but i ing stated point blank in threads my location.


    end rant ...cbf editing it either.

    i honestly have not read (let alone processed) the majority of this player theme thing going on right now....

    I'll view the video and read the threads here properly once the dust has settled after the w/e....i honestly haven't even read this thread properly (just to my 1st post) & later when i saw the last msg as ICE.....i was surprised it was not bait when i saw it this morning which is why i put my post in it. ....same goes for other threads. So i'm not going to run with this player theme thing until i read the posts and can actually process it / respond without being in this defensive/aggressive state & going at people (CD it wasn't your attempt at the message which is why i responded the way i did...it was the fact you were not just direct with me and when i saw the "cryptic" so i made an off the cuff " you post" in reply.

    as i said to ice there's allot of hate and its taken me straight of any of threads i thought was bait material. especially today.

    i hope at some point we can have a proper talk about wtf went down here because we all know its not normal. ... i can only assume the other guy everyone thought i was was a major enemy of yours and its a "perfect storm" type scenario and/or your job and it got personal.

    i keep changing this post & going back and forth on how i want to direct it..... so like i said earlier.....i'm taking some time out.

    IN Portland when LMA got the ball on the left side down where he likes it, the rest of the team retreated to the right side of the court and let him work one on one on his man. He was very effective at that. But he's not a quick player so in the Spurs offense where it was possible for an opponent to drop someone off to double team LMA, he was not as effective. He wasn't happy with having to give up the ball I think because he wasn't used to it.

    Who will change their game to properly use LMA? Will it be Pop or LMA? or both?

    I haven't seen that in preseason games either. Or wait, I saw it in the scrimmage but Bertans fronting Lamarcus knew the play and deflected the pass causing a TO.

    Pau has had good passing interaction with wings and such. He finds cutters well for example, but his interaction with LMA isn't that great. They may need more chemistry. We shall see. Pau had no trouble passing to a cutting Anderson in the playoffs or in the preseason game. It's LMA effort which is inconsistent. Maybe he can't shake free of his man, being out of shape or having a heart or knee condition slowed him last season, or maybe he's lost a step. We don't know. Maybe being guarded by quicker wings affected him shaking his man loose. They got him out of his game. It also makes sense that if he was unhappy he wasn't playing his heart out.
    Lamarcus didn't look like he was trying at times. That goes with him being called mentally soft and weak. Winning a championship will be hard. I have had doubts that they will achieve it unless Lamarcus toughens up mentally to begin with. He had no business being outplayed by 39.8 yrs old Manu, 23 yr old non rotation bench player Kyle and breakout dleague sensation JSimms. Simms toughened up in that series, limited of talent though he may be and Lamarcus was hiding under the bed.

    Intetesting read. Glad to see LA initiate the meeting . Shows he cares & they got to some common ground which is a positive for the team.. I mean there are players out there as soon as they get a sniff of being traded, tune the team out & let their game go south.
    does he care or does he want a payday?

    And although others may not admit it you were right...
    and tmtsc who also reported on him not wanting to put in the effort in that practice with timmy and he heard the rumors of that conversation where Pop was manifesting frustration with him from his first season.
    Also, credit to TD 21, it's a marriage of convenience at this point. So while he's a Spur one has to wish him well and that they all figure it out but it's just not convincing.

    Aldridge ate Capela alive last year. I understand that you were more going for a Harden joke than anything else, but I wonder how much about that series people actually remember. LMA actually had a strong series outside of the first game.
    As I mentioned before, Aldridge had a monster game 3 and game 6 and solid in Game 5 too.

    Have now read this thread from start to finish......ill start by saying my firstpost in this thread was made as 6am and not intended to be sandwiched my 2 posts (on the lma billboard topic)
    it was just pure dumb luck that it made any kind of sense (in the way the board took it)
    i'm not trolling i swear this is true. So when i see that Rockets last night, again i thought you were taking the piss and had a " you" reply.....sorry...defensive/quick fuse etc


    A few other points:
    - To keep this light hearted....DUCKS is another name i remember reading the board as a 11-15yr old getting my spurs education. It's great to see you now can spell and complete a full sentence over the last 12? years.
    I dont have anything else to say to you other then to check out that Jim Jeffrey netflix special

    - All kinds of positive signs on this board in preparation for a very interesting season.

    - Aussies let's all identify together as a group together. (i don't want to lead this group)

    My projections of myself as a poster in line with a spurs player ...(Think Manu in 2014)
    - Balls to throw a b/w legs bounce pass in nba finals (discuss legit topics with anyone and bring a serious deiscussion)
    - 6 turnover game 6 ...i,e could seriously see myself melting down at a knowledgeable poster. (i.e one of Apo' many hype threads and me just getting fustrated)/
    - comes off the bench (weekly poster at most i think)
    The kyle thread displays my quick fuse and ill admit i have a immature/cheeky side that will with others....Ive just had an intense 3 day crash course in board politics and now understand.

    Will be a poster this season --- it wont be daily but i promise that i will try to contribute to the board in a positive way and i urge everyone (small count and big) to get this place back on track.

    That's all i have...will read other threads this w/e at some point.

    It's not long ago that LMA used to be an All-Star and All-NBA caliber player. The past couple seasons, he's tried to fit into the system, sacrificed touches and shots, and generally been a team player. Until this last summer, he never really complained...
    This isn't true. After his first year in San Antonio, there were many comments about LMA being unhappy...

    Jabari Young wrote an article about that.

    "The Express-News has been informed by a league source the Spurs are open to trading the former Longhorn should the right package surface. Those within the Spurs refuted the suggestion, saying no talks have occurred with any team...Those close to the situation suggest Aldridge may not be happy at the moment. The belief is the Spurs pitched him on becoming the center of their offense when they recruited him in 2015, and that hasn’t occurred with the rise of Kawhi Leonard."
    http://www.mysanantonio.com/sports/s...re-9981115.php

    Sure, we know what happened to McCullan but I still think a lot of people owe Jabari Young an apology. He was the first to talk about LMA issues but everyone denied it.

    he just said that he feels like he is capable of doing more for the team and wants to be the compe or he think he can be.
    On offense.
    It sounds like about touches, ppg, making ASG games...

    I wonder when was the last time a Spurs player caring that much about his numbers???

    If you were a non-Spurs fan and hear that LMA is not happy, you wouldn't say "What a such diva. He ain't happy anywhere. Portland, San Antonio..." ?

    But we're a Spurs fans. Our team doesn't many options...That's why we're in denial mode about LMA's personality..."Well, he wants to be better, that's all"...

    But what player would a Spurs' fan rather see in a Spurs uniform?

    A-"I think I'm still able to play at [an All-Star] level, and I don't feel like I've declined to not be in the top 10-15 guys in the league"

    B-"I just set a goal of winning the ultimate prize. Whatever the stats or number show, that's what I'm playing for"

    I agree with this. And actually the fact that Pop was to any degree surprised shows that even if unhappy LMA was not a locker room cancer, which is a point in his favor.
    I wonder when that becoming a fact...I find a bit naive to believe that Pop didn't know that LMA was unhappy with so many rumors about it since 2016 summer even on SAEN.

    Well, Pau had at least 4? high-low passes tonight.

    Lamarcus didn't look like he was trying at times. That goes with him being called mentally soft and weak. Winning a championship will be hard. I have had doubts that they will achieve it unless Lamarcus toughens up mentally to begin with.
    If he gets more touches and becomes the leader scoring, he'll suddenly try harder......Yeah...It's that easy make him that type of player...My version of blue fon.

    Sure we all "Make LMA happy again" because we want to believe in whatever works this season.

    From the multiple posts you been making in threads.

    If i do decide to come back at some point YGWHI has made a target list.

    clearly in the 10% non bball related issues with you - i also understand in a SA forum with may not sit well with many people.

    please make it clear to me while i have the boards attention.


    Where i'm going with this that whether it was intention or not (everyone thinking i was someone else) the board stopped and as a result their is too much attention - at least for the moment.

    What i hope can happen i that in a month or so i can just blend in when the real action starts

    - quick edit just to clarify even further....im not even looking at any other thread on the board.

    so when i come back at some point any further post in this thread at all...i assume is a hater like YGWHI.

    if you dont like me....put it up here....ive put it all on the table.


    will be back in a few weeks
