Was I going too hard at Coach?
Maybe Fisher should have had Calderon in
For that final possession, it's only 1 possession
Because Melo made the pass to Prigoni
I guess that's the difference between winning and losing

Yes ... I just wanted to see if he realized that because I am sure that he did not.
Aldridge needs to add the 3 to his game and he is obviously starting.
Hhhhhmmmm really ??
I knew he took more 3s
of course you did
WHat gets me is that Aldrige offensively is a worse version of Melo yet that's okay. I am not even talking about F5 either but most people view him as a great offensive player even though he takes a lot of contested mid range jumpers.
yes. people are clueless and just like to say stuff and pound their chest.
Melo is a better offensive player than aldridge. there is no question about that.
He is not a even a good defender(decent) but he does rebound now which is great. Well I woke you up maybe a few more will take the red pill.

I don't think anyone would disagree
The game has more to it than offense right?
Aldridge better rebounder and defender
Which probably makes up the offensive gap whatever it may be
Therefore since Melo makes Max so should Aldridge
But if you guys have beefs with his contested offensive play
Don't bring him into any discussion for free agent signing at boo-koo bucks

Offensively they about the same... but rebounding and size in general make Algrige better.
Not much of a diff but I will never pay Melo more that Aldrige...
This mute point zo - both are max players.

That's what you want if the goal is a high draft pick. I'm sure Phil and fisher will present some stats to prospective free agents this summer showing how many close games could have been won with that players services.

46-14 finish is still within grasp
Just need Calderon to close out games instead of Pablo

There are 3 players that I want from Portland and they are Lopez, Matthews, and Leonard. They will probably have to drop one of Matthews or Lopez because they will max out Aldrige. They can go over the cap for all three but that will lock them up for years to come even with the exploding cap because Battum is up next summer and Liilard will be looking for a max extension.
I think Portland could be a good blueprint for the knicks but they hit on some homeruns in trades and FA. Wes Matthews was an underrated gem and Lopez could have been had by anyone almost. Let's not forget hitting on Lillard.

As you say ... he is in the league for all these years and has made it to the second round only once ... and his playoff performances ...

Once again giving 30yr olds max is not my thing
But you asked me a loaded question gun to head
I answered honestly, I think you think I'm in love with Aldridge
Believe me I'm not
F5 ... my issue is that you are all over the place. You say and post many things that just clash and then you back track. To be fair, I don't believe you are consistent at all. And, when I ask you direct questions, you avoid them like the plague.
And as far as Aldridge with 2's and 3's, I don't think that you get this either.
The only thing that I still know for sure is that you dislike Carmelo immensely.

You're making this real complicated and it's not
Only because you actually have a preference of Max guy{I truly don't]
My personal preference is not to give 30yr olds Max
But of the crop of bigs entering free agency if I had to pay Max
With exception to Gasol[who is a no brainer at this point]
I'd give it to Aldridge, what's so complicated and inconsistent about this
Since you had a gripe with me bringing Melo into the convo
Very briefly mind you as a means to reason what market offer should reflect
Then sub out Melo for Chris Bosh, does that make you feel better
