By Jason QuickThe Aldridge-Lillard tension was real ... and created entirely by Aldridge's insecurity. Lillard is bright and polite, and sensed Aldridge's delicate ego. As a result, he always went out of his way to compliment Aldridge, and to trumpet that the Blazers were Aldridge's team, Aldridge's franchise.
By Sam AmickBut the challenging part for the Blazers folks who tried so hard through the years to understand him is that Aldridge's understated ways made it nearly impossible to satisfy this request. He routinely turned down interviews, or didn't maximize off-court opportunities of which Lillard would take full advantage. He is known as the private type, the kind of player and person who prefers to play his game and let someone else handle the lion's share of the leadership duties. Except, of course, until someone does just that, reaps the benefits of it and kickstarts the cycle of jealousy that had everything to do with his departure.smh

bail Blazers tryin to ease the pain
By psychintellect Go To PostSounds like a scroned lover's fan fiction tbhMaybe, but this story line was occurring back during the Roy/Oden days. I can go back seven seasons and dig up a similar article.
Plus, I know it to be true personally, from, well, my days back there. The marketing stuff is 100% true.
It'll be interesting, since LMA will definitely take the reins from Duncan but it's pretty much no question in anyone's mind that Kawhi is the face and leader of that franchise going forward.
LMA gonna pout and cry in the car again in a few years?

By DY_nasty Go To Postso waitI thought he was over it but I guess he was jealous that Damian appeared in NBA Cares promos and sold five more pairs of sneakers.
LMA is STILL an insecure fuckboy? LOL
reilo this L been cooking for a minute hahaha

Kawhi has no emotions so he won't even try to take any spotlight. Dude is hitman monkey tier in not enjoying what he does.

This is what is catching me with the whole LMA ego narrative. If it is true you would think he'd go to Phoenix. But his choice to go to SA seems odd if he is as insecure as people seem to think.
Maybe the allure of the Spurs is temporarily blinding him but they are the quintessential team first organization and as long as Duncan, Parker, Pop and Leonard are there LMA is going to be one amongst many. And will have more then just Lillard getting the attention.

Maybe the ego stuff was what made him consider the Suns but the idea of winning a championship led him to the Spurs.... Who knows what these players are really thinking
That car that Beal cries in after games? He bought it from LMA on the low. Dude used to get butthurt when he wasn't the 1st invited to team dinners lmao
oh man
you can't tell me that trolling isn't winning

There's a nagging part of me thinking that the decisions for both LMA and Rolo were also influenced by family. More than likely explain why there was no drama blow up. Rolo is 27, LMA is 29. Robin's twin is in NY. LMA's son is in SA and he's got fam in Dallas.

With all the traveling they have to do, there isn't much time to visit family.

Dude wants attention but doesn't want attention. Amazing is what it is.

I could see this too. I dunno. Given what's going on with me I can see the fam thing tho. Get paid more and be by relatives? Fuck it I'd do it.

Now Tim Duncan will have to sacrifice 75% of salary he still deserves so Spurs can give LaMarcus max, keep team intact. Listening, Kobe?

Yeah, the Northwest has a hard time attracting free agents in every sport except soccer, where most players aren't from America anyways. Especially in the NFL.
Seattle & Portland are the most isolated sports cities geographically. So, unless you're drafted out of college or you're willing to relocate your whole family, I'd imagine you'd be hard-pressed to come up here.

Reilo, I told you something was up with Lillard or the FO.
Just like something was up with DAJ and CP3.
The writing on the wall was clear

Lillard would be cool with everyone if he played a little defense and didn't take his ball and go home after getting left out of the all-star game initially.
By db Go To PostSlaent Lillard hate boner strong. Always his fault. lol.If take a moment, turn half your brain off, and really think about it... Lillard is just like Kobe and CP3.
/LMA
For real though, had no idea LMA's ego was this fragile. I thought Shawn Marion was bad.
Jimmy vs Rose is next on the list, altho we gonna happily dump Rose ASAP
Well I hope we can have some fun with both in Hoiberg's offense before that happened.

Aldridge, a huge fan of barbecue, felt he was left out of dinner plans by Roy and Outlaw, even though he had called Outlaw earlier in the evening inquiring about dinner plans.
For some reason, Aldridge took it as a slight from Roy.
Yooooooooooooo
By psychintellect Go To PostSurprised no rumblings on which team is signing Gerald Green.
Green needs a very specific team. He goes some place where he is allowed to chuck and he's out of the league again in a year.
By K@do Go To Postso, JR Smith and Javale McGee are still available.cavs are F'ed up for not getting him again lol. bron played him.
who's afraid? fes up.
