LMA = Paper Soldier
Fake ass team leader. But muh touches.losing to ty Eastern Conference teams.
![]()
He's a poor last 6 minutes of the game and OT type of player. He doesn't do well from the 4th quarter on ward. Missed shots, missed free throws, bad passes out of double teams, turnaround jumpers when guarded by a smaller player. He pulls out that full repertoire mid-late 4th quarter.
And Pop had to coddle this guy in the off-season and then give him a new contract. He must miss Tim now more than ever.
Magic are a top team in the east you fat moron.
This..
He could get you buckets, but he's inherently inefficient..HE will/could never be a first scoring option on le contender/championship team..Having said that, Aldridge is the least of our worries so far..
Eh I disagree. Tbh.
He was the only one that played well against the Magic (24 & 11) and Pacers (26 & 8). Yesterday it seemed like they were ignoring him and the ty ass guards tried to show off for the white hoes in Boston. Especially that Aussie land whale, who continues to chuck despite missing 70% of the time. There's a reason LMA has played worse with Patty than he does with Parker last year. He just doesn't get touches when that midget is on the court.
ts ok.Even if this season sucks..We have the world cup in June :wine
Can't complain about him this year. He's averaging close to 24 points on 50 percent shooting. On the offensive end he's been efficient. He's not clutch but that's why we have Kawhi.
World Cup of Hockey? Canada never sniffs World Cups people care about.
(at least the U.S. made the Hex)
True that, I'm tired of watching the boring ass CL group stage
you know the laugh is on you when this (TGY) poster makes the most sense in the thread . We got a backcourt that is struggling to bring the ball up, contain the turnovers & hit an outside shot but lets piss on LA's touches .
I'll put this down to every forum needing the token player only hater's thread.
Can't help to think Pops just trying to up this guy's stock then trade him when the opportunity comes. Just can't believe this guy as Spurs material.
Flabby Melt struggles to effectively run a simple pick and pop with Aldridge consistently...How ing sad is that? Idiot insists on doing one of the three moves in his entire repertoire: just throwing it back out to the wing (to 40 year old Manu to bail him out, usually), dribbling into traffic and almost turning over, or going around the pick to shoot an inefficient and contested mid-range shot that clanks off the front of the rim.
Aldridge is the least of this team's problems right now when we have Mills being worse than dead weight and Kawhi with chronic tendinopathy. For the most part Aldridge has been solid.
^ All 3 of the posts above are true. Patty Mills makes everyone, including LA, worse.

Yeah, I wasn't having a huge go at Aldridge, I was just pointing out his flaws. He's a pretty good player for 3-3.5 quarters, but after that he's not very good. Basically, like someone else stated - he's not clutch. I'm OK with that as long as he's the third option at best in crunch time behind Kawhi and now I think Rudy Gay can step in and be the second option. Aldridge might be alright as a 3rd option with the game on the line. He's not good as a first option, that's for sure.
LMA won't like that.
I'm talking about him only being the 3rd option for the last 6 minutes of a game. You think he won't like that and complain about it?
That's the thing I don't like about LMA he talks a big game and says he wants to be a focal point on offense but he folds like a lawn chair when it matters. You want the ball late? Okay, get into position and attack the rim or post up and go in strong for a layup. This er starts settling for weak ass jumpers when the game gets tight.
LMA believes he should be The Man - first, last or any other 6 minutes. So, no, I don't see his acceptance of such a scheme. When Kawhi returns, I expect a very difficult transition - especially in a situation where Tony returns first, which will improve LMA's effectiveness - with all the pluses and minuses both on and off the court that could possibly entail.
That is not LMA's game and never was. He has shown very little willingness to adopt that style. I remember the one play against Ibaka after their face-off in the last Toronto game.
Ppl still surprised that he sucks is shocking
I been saying for the last 2 years hes ty and will never improve
Leopards do not change their spots. Touches is the same player (with the same mentality) he was in Portland. If you liked Touches vs. Lillard, you will like Touches vs, Leonard. Coming soon to an arena near you.
