Aldridge joins the Spurs

[trojanfan12]

Lakers are always my #1 team and always will be, but I'm bandwagoning the Spurs this year (except in games against the Lakers). They're going to be fun to watch.

Kind of in the same boat.

Per his twitter.

Best choice for him, huge pick up by San Antonio.

Very good choice for him because the Spurs have a core of older players that will not to run and gun. Aldridge is not a young kid and now has a legitimate chance at a ring - that he never would have had in Portland

now the Spurs need to pick up a center on the cheap, and they're ready to go.

so happy, now I can watch LA play on a regular basis.

 

[Retroram52]

Good for you Texas Jefe. Jordon Hill is available. Plays pretty decent D and has a nice repertoire of shots.

 

[thunderc]

We don't know if the cavs will win and thunder are still not better than us no matter what

Bullshit.

 

[Heatles84]

Bullshit.

How many titles does the Thunder have again?

I have had a deep respect for the Spurs for many years even though the Lakers are #1 choice. I love the continuity from year to year.

It was fun to dream of him in a Suns uniform and even though we were the runner up to the Spurs I'm not too disappointed, I saw this coming for a while now. Popovich gets Poporicher.

 

[Hambombs]

Bullshit.

Nope truth

 

[GNG]

Good lord. God help the rest of the NBA.

An excellent signing for the Spurs. They are a team every other franchise is trying to emulate.

 

[LAD]

This upcoming year the Spurs will be unstoppable.

But a new era is morphing in San Antonio. Aldridge is the Duncan replacement...Leonard and green the parker and ginobili replacements?

SA must be early favorites to win the West?

It will be iteresting to see what happens to the Spurs in a couple of years when TD, Parker, Ginobili & Pop retire. Seems like they're preparing for it already.

 

[LAD]

Yes. I would put a healthy OKC ahead of GSW

OKC healthy or not don't have a complete team therefore they've got a ways before they will beat GS imo. GS have won and I think simply because of that, and that they beat the best player in the league, their confidence is through the roof right now.

 

[LAD]

Puts spurs right there with golden state now and they're after David west

If GS can replace DLee with West then OMG....

 

[LAD]

How many titles does the Thunder have again?

Exactly ZERO!!!!

 

[tducey]

Big signing for the Spurs, got to think this move makes them the favorites to win the 2016 NBA title.

With Leonard, Aldridge, and Green I think they'll be alright. Plus, Pop might already have his successor in mind. I can't even remember the last time the Spurs were terrible.

Oh without a doubt.

 

[gordontrue]

Spurs are probably ahead.

I think when the latest title odds come out, it will be San Antonio, Cleveland, & GSW

Bovada just put out future odds today.

CLE 11/4
GSW 9/2
SAS 9/2

The Cavs, of course, are only getting the edge because their odds of getting to the Finals in the first place are much higher, thanks to being in the East.

The hell are you talking about? 2 top 5 players. Starting lineup of KD, Westbrook, Ibaka, Kanter, and Roberson. Then Waiters, Adams, Morrow, Collison, and Augustine on 2nd team. McGary, Novak, and Singler off the bench. OKC is a deep and complete as anyone.
