With Tim aging rapidly before our eyes this season & LMA playing soft, Diaw is currently our best post player.
Not a good sign going forward.
I though he was out worked tonight by Jones and Capella on the boards. Physicality seem to bother him somewhat (IIRC same thing against the Bulls). It's not all bad though, I thought he's been decent defending the P&R, and against most frontcourts he rebounds fine.
Wish he would post up more than settling for the pump fake/jumper

One trend I don't like is trying to draw the foul crap. The one where he's giving 3-4 pump fakes while 15 feet out and expecting the refs to bail him out.
Never understood why they heavily emphasized Duncan passing the torch to Aldridge in the summer. It's given Spurs fans unrealistic expectations of LMA's abilities. LMA has always been soft(frequently shied away from contact even in Portland). His playoff numbers are also pretty bad. He doesn't have the ability to raise his game in the post-season like prime Duncan/Manu.
LMA is a soft dude. Like Harlem said, hes probably the 4th or 5th best player in the team.
He's the 2nd best player on the team, based on ability, tbh..he has clearly been the 5th best, based on this season, though(although Ginobili and Duncan have been inconsistent after their hot starts..
I noticed that too. The vast majority of the time it's a no call with him bricking the shot badly.
He's got the talent, but he doesn't have the at ude. It's like the Spurs have a softer Robert Horry on the court that can't take 3 point shots. Totally worthless for the money.
Are you a dumbass? Just asking.
Who was guarding LMA most of the game? Clint Capella? Who the is Clint Capella?
WTF does that matter when you just said the bolded.![]()
Let me spell it out to you.... you don't pay someone $20/m per year if he can't beat a sop re player picked #25 and earning 1/10th your current salary.
He wasn't even the reason we lost.![]()
I guess making just 6 points in the entire second half is good enough for you.can't fault you for having low standards.
I watch the full games got.![]()
We lost when the second unit got on. While LMA was benched you stupid . LMA was a top 3 player for the spurs dumbass.![]()
Like I said, can't fault you for having low standards. 6 points in 24 minutes of play with at least 2 of the points off a broken play?
Do you honestly think that's good enough for a max player who was brought in for his offense??? You must be wearing reality distortion glasses.![]()
Except he isn't out there 24 minutes in a half dumbass.
don't come at me with your weak got.![]()
And we're not even debating this game. You said he is totally worthless for the money. that includes all his other ing games dumbass.
No one is going to argue that so you moved the argument.![]()
You want to go through the stats of players making $20m or more to see if Aldridge is worth it?
He wasn't worth it for the game against the Rockets.
He isn't worth it for 1/3rd the season that has been played.
Maybe he had some great game against the Sixers.... but that doesn't make him 'worth it'.
Everyone in this ing board says LMA is worth it. Even harlem you dumbass. The whole ing Spurs FO says he is worth it. We are the 2nd best team with lots of room for improvement. The guy has been playing huge minutes in a completely new system and we are a great team statistically. LMA does more than just score. He also plays defense and he isn't an injured vagina. You are a huge got tbh.![]()
Okay, you are a LMA fanboy.
The Spurs would be the 2nd best team even without LMA.
We all hope that he improves because the Spurs are paying him "mucho dinero".
Plays decent one-on-one defense, but his help defense is pathetic.
Also, speaking about his legendary mid-range shot... he misses half of them when completely open!!
Here for you reading pleasure: http://stats.nba.com/player/#!/200746/tracking/shots/
40% catch and shoot
29.5% pullup jumpers
Spurs average field goal is 46%... in short, he is below average when he shoots from outside.

I'm not sure we would have the 2nd best record without LMA. We'd probably still have an injured splitter collecting DNPs-sore vagina.
you sure are a dumbass.
I'm going to stop picking on you though. Too easy.![]()
Ignore the numbers all you want fanboy, it's your delusion.
