Dude is finally looking comfortable out there

That alpha gene tbh.
LMA has had already like 4-5 games where it would have been 1 single career night for Splitter..and they were actually needed buckets in close games deep in third/4th quarters and (Boston/Clippers/Rockets etc.)....
Finally some strong post moves from aldridgde, its been rare this season so far
lma's defense all year tho
Went back to his rockets killer mode.
Howard isn't fast enough, their PFs aren't big enough. They can't handle him.
25 (12-17) /11 reb /2 ast in 28 minutes..mah ..worth it?
..that post-up game is getting cleaned up..
You can bet he's got some coaches up at night watching film and worrying about that impending job search.
it was only a matter of time....
Like I've said before exploiting favorable matchups is the easiest way to score and win games. LMA has the clear advantage in his matchup vs Young, the Spurs consistently feeding him, and he was so effective...that's all what you can ask for. Great job
Did you start a thread about whether he was worth it, or am I mixing you up with another poster?25 (12-17) /11 reb /2 ast in 28 minutes..mah ..worth it?

Look at that gap between 1 and 2 on OPP PPG. That's the largest gap in the league over 5 points separate them from number 2. That's insane.
The faster he does anything offensively, the better he is. Quick turnaround, maximum 1 or 2 dribbles in the post, no hesitation on the jumpshot - he is definitely getting into better shape as well.
He is going to be a ing nightmare for other teams come April.
This. I was worried at the beginning of the year with all of his pumpfaking nonsense, but he's making much stronger and more decisive moves now. Great to see.
The hesitations where killing the offense. I am not sure what lit the fire, but maybe it was Lilliard's crazy performance against OKC.
He looks lighter now, who knows, a New Year's resolution to start dieting.
Dat adaptation to Spurs has been very fast all things considered...
He hasn't stood out vs the elite teams yet, but what we have all expected from Aldridge -- a scoring relief valve in reg season-- is slowly coming together..
It it these nights of multiple 20-points Parker used to provide, and no longer can, is what win you plenty of regular season games and higher seed that we sorely missed last season ..let's hope it is signs of more from Aldridge...
He just dropped 36 on the best power forward in the game...
Best PF in the game is Griffin closely followed by Raymond Green.
Kawhi and Danny were also exceptional.
If LMA and Kawhi can maintain that kind of one-two punch (either or can be the first option depending on the match up) in addition Duncan shoring up the defense when he gets back, the Spurs gonna be tough.
That was just awesome to watch. Truly LMAlpha
Yeah right, give Davis Paul or Curry and he'd on the rest of the league.
