    He was actually good on the offensive end in his last game.

    Low T bro? I bet you got 0 T to speak of tbh.

    He was alright... His defense has sucked for a long time now though and that's what they needed from him on the nets but that's exactly what he couldn't contribute whatsoever and thus retirement to save face.

    Never more than when he gave up on that workout with Tim.

    There are warriors, and then there are paycheck players. Tim was the former, and LMA the latter.

    I feel Aldridge tried, against his nature, for a couple years, but threw the towel the last 1.5 ... Numbers are addictive

    I don't mind those looking for numbers. You can bet in contract talks, numbers are laid out. "No, stats are nothing compared to the win, you're sacrificing for the good of the team" - RC come January "Other players in the league with your stats are making less than you're asking for" -RC come July.

    Born loser. Survived on his ability to sell an imaginary talent level he never actually achieved. Had he been 5’9” and white he’d be that manager at Walmart who walks around like he’s the CEO of something important.

    You can say that about pretty much 99.9 percent of NBA players.

    He was hired to do what he does best, score within a certain range with consistency. If anyone expected he would evolve into a premier defensive stopper or a high percentage 3pt shooter, I doubt it was the Spurs FO or coaching staff. They did try to work with him on defense and 3 pt shot, but it was too late in his career and too late for any physical capability to develop in that regard.

    Then the role of the big man changed and he was still doing what had made him an All-Star over the years. You should give him props for trying to become more proficient as a 3pt. shooter. That showed some respect for the skills of the other players and a willingness to be a team player. He didn't sulk, just gave it his best shot to do what was necessary for the team. Not many All-Stars will do that.

    Let's respect how LA played his game and not on how he left the game. Thank you LMA for the entertainment you gave us as a Spur.

    Proper sentiment I respect what he gave the Spurs but ST can be filled with a bunch of hateful trolls. Lord knows who the next whipping boy will be if DeRozen leaves, besides Pop that is.
