Aldridge is Soft

[westsideozzie]

I thought that LA would take Green down on the box and give him the business, but he totally was the reason the game got out of hand last night. No fire, no will to win, just moist ass fadeaways. He has to get the it together.

[keep-itreal]

all he does is shoot jumpers like Anthony "empty stats, no impact" Davis.

centers/PFs are all soft these days

enters/PFs are all soft these days

Saying that all are is a bit unfair.

The shots he gets aren't good shots. 39 year old Duncan is better than him

I had no idea he was this bad but I never watched him in Portland. His post game is trash

research before you speak....in portland he was their best player and he dominated that rockets series a few years back...absolutely murdered the rockets. Is he physical like a zach randolph or draymond green? hell no. Nobody more skilled on the low block than him though and has a soft touch allowing him to draw defenders out to the 3 point line.

[BlazerRed]

He was always like this. A great player, but never a huge fire or alphaness about him. Only time I've seen him consistently play with some fire in him was the Rockets series a couple of years ago. He definitely does have a post game, it's just not a bruiser style. It's more finesse.

He a jumpshoter on the low block that takes a long time to get into his moves. guys like both Gasols, Cousins, Duncan, Al Jefferson are all more skilled on the block.

He takes too long down there and when the result is a turn around jumper it seems like it may not be worth going to him much.

Just saying he isn't as good as I thought he was

not trying to argue with you but you just named 4 centers....lamarcus is a pf...always has been and always will be. second the guys you named arent more skilled....they are more physical than aldridge. Im serious man.....just watch some tape of lamarcus....you letting a half of a season with a new team playing with 4 hall of famers cloud your judgment on lamarcus. Youve been warned

[Mass Debator]

That's why I finally dropped his ass for Gobert.

[RepMe]

This is not news.

[NBAplayoffs2001]

He's like a throwback Western Conference center from the early 2000s. I love Demarcus's game. Shame he has literally no talent around him besides a ton of average role players, Rondo who takes up 1/2 possessions just dribbling late games, and Gay who has never been an All Star or good enough to really help a team get over a hump.

[HoopSuperstar]

He never really excels at anything not a great rebounder, not a great defender, just a solid good player. Not really a player you can depend on, he doesn't have that fire in him. I could be wrong, If I am enlighten me. I'm ok with it.
