Trade LMA

[JPB]

you trade him for Beal. Try to get Jeff Green in that deal as well

Why do the wiz do this ?

Why do the wiz do this ? [Re trade of Beal for LMA]

The Wiz do that because they have suffered a psychotic episode, and think they are trading a sea serpent for a unicorn.

Is how that trade works. Hey, it could happen.

Spurs-LMA, First rd pick

Hawks- Bazemore, Prince, Dedmon

Spurs have to give up the best player and a 1st round pick? cool story...

Just Never Came Together

I think LMA genuinely liked Duncan. I noticed during their first year together when LMA was down Tim knew how to console him and get his head in the game.

Could you imagine how life as a spurs fan would be if some of these cats were Gms. Lol

Get rid of the one guy that plays a lick of d. You better make sure you getting adequate defenders back .

[jermaine]

Soooooo basically LMA csn hit his fully potential with us cuz he doesn't have another defensive big next to him!?! He cant play offense an defense at an elite level.

[tbdog]

Not at this age and the minutes required.

Duncan is LA's favorite player

I guess you could argue addition by subtraction, but if the best he can fetch is something like Nurkic, Harkless, 1st, is it even worth it? Because if that's all he's worth, I'd rather they try to come to an understanding or compromise with him.

I can live with the post ups, especially when he has a clear advantage, but the pick-and-pop long 2s have to go. Those need to become 3s. The face ups, when he can't beat his man off the dribble and settles for some awkward, contorted shot, has to go too. Those needs to be kick outs and resets.

Unlike a year and a half ago, the Spurs hold the hammer this time. Since championship contention is now a pipe dream, they don't need him to continue to work towards that and good luck to him finding another team that allows him to play archaically.

Purtell is playing better than LMA

If he'd fetch Nurkic, Harkless, and a 1st I would take that.

No one wants Aldridge

I guess a team like hornets can use him.

JV + CJ for Softridge.

[Kobe'sAchilles]

So has he been traded yet?

Funny, coincidence, I was just re-reading some of the comments in that old thread.

Retired from the locker room...

If he would just beast down low, he would be incredible. But no, has to constantly shoot weak ass fade-aways.

That's how he's always been. ass finesse garbage pissed me off when he was at UT.
