I don't see him even considering that TBH. Cavaliers probably won't even win the title this year. If he wants a title and all, he can go to San Antonio and they'd be among the favorites for the next couple years.

 

I'll take Aldridge in LA!

 

LA to LA

 

How can he not consider playing with LeBron for a year or two, dude? Come on now.

Even if the Cavs don't win the title this year, gotdamnit they're gonna be in the hunt next year too if they get Aldridge. They have LeBron and Kyrie..arguably the best 2 players in the east.

 

Curry is crazy. and that 3 he hit in the corner..that shit was an and-1. they fouled the hell out of him. QB sacked a brotha and he still drained it in all their eyes. that boy is incredible. shoulda been on the line shooting 1 for the lead..no OT necessary.

 

Wait Aldridge is going on 30 years old? Meh.

 

Cleveland is still well... Cleveland. The armpit of america. What major FA has signed with them besides LeBron?

 

that i agree with. however, what major free agent has ever signed with San Antonio? the city of San Antonio is no better than Cleveland.

of course i don't know if it's gonna happen. again, i don't even know if the Cavs will have the space this summer to fit Aldridge in because they've already tried to sign Tristan Thompson to a big deal and maybe they will again. if i had to put money on it i'd say Aldridge ends up with Dallas, his hometown.

i'm just sayin, it wouldn't be the worst move to sign a short term deal to play with LeBron/Kyrie in Cleveland, make the Finals in year 1 ( possibly win a title), play well, and then hit the market again. Aldridge's chances of making the Finals are pretty good if he goes east and teams with those two guys. the west is tough. Tim Duncan could retire at any moment and many think Popovich will retire when Duncan retires. Dirk could call it quits soon as well because he's old too. Tony Parker is 34 years old as well and dealing with serious health issues in the playoffs every year.

 

if Aldridge goes to Dallas, Tyson Chandler won't be re-signing there. the end result could be Chandler signing with the Lakers if Love joins. Love and Chandler are pretty good friends. then we draft a guard..hopefully DLo.

c-Chandler, Black
pf- Love, E.Davis, Kelly
sf- Kobe, W.Johnson
sg- D.Russell, J.Brown
pg- Clarkson

 

Chandler is decent but he's old as fuck

 

Goal should be getting Towns or Okafor. If we get stuck with pick 3 or 4 or 5, then offer 27 and try to trade up into the top 2 to get Towns or Okafor. and did Julius Randle just disappear in your scenario?

 

Can you believe they are considering eliminating the "hack a Shaq" strategy??? If a professional basketball player can't handle shooting a free throw then fuck em. The Spurs game was fantastic to watch, never get enough seeing the Clippers embarrassed on National TV!!!!!! Serves Ballmer right for using the Lakers' locker room as a lounge! Lol. Kawhi Leonard is arguably the 2nd best player behind Bron in the world today.

 

i can see them tryin to deal all of those picks + Hill/Young/Randle/Clarkson for a max player. Kupchak said they'll be looking to add at least 1 max player..read between the lines and maybe they believe they have the assets to land another.

Haha! hell yea he did

 

yeah, eliminating hack a Shaq is bullshit. they just let it ride when Shaq was the one gettin hacked and the Lakers were dealing with it, but now these shitty, little teams like the Clippers and Rockets are cryin cause they can't win shit.

 

Draft keep comin
Draft keep comin
Draft keep comin
Draft keep comin

 

it'll be their 1st time repeating if they do

 

i like Memphis to get to the Finals in the west. don't know who i like in the east.

i think the Spurs are eventually gonna have to get something from Parker ( against Memphis).
