jrmintz 139 Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 Didn't think LMA time would be running out in 2021 but here we are. Trade would help his value but not sure if it will even happen. Spurs is locked into the youth movement. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

How did we get from people swearing he's better than Christian Wood to this. Yeah, I am in the same situation. I think I never saw a player drop off statistically that rapidly and significantly (without a major injury). Easily my worst pick in my 5 years of fantasy basketball. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

EsTiLO 152 Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 Lamarcus Aldridge has always been a mediocre fantasy player to me. Just the fact he’s a big that doesn’t get that many rebounds or blocks. I mean I saw his decline from a mile away. Once his scoring output decreased , what do we have ? A very mediocre fantasy player. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Always draft upside over aging stars when they’re almost equally valued in the draft. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Always draft upside over aging stars when they’re almost equally valued in the draft. Hindsight is a beautiful thing. I don’t think anyone expected Wood to be as good as he was, when healthy this season. That being said .... I was actively trying to draft him everywhere. But he got sniped every. single. time. In short I agree with you. Wood >>>> LMA . Alll day everyday The writing was all over the wall even in pre-season. But definitley not as evident as it is today. Aldridge is basically a drop candidate now. His only saving grace .... a limited bench role, maybe. Edited March 3 by RunCMC 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I didn’t draft Lamarcus but this is some Monday morning quarterbacking. “Upside” has many elements underneath it- age, minutes in play, etc. Tons of players on the bench right now has the “upside” but don’t have the minutes to put up. You got another example of your draft where you took upside over veteran? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
alexstr 762 Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 I've had Aldridge the last few years and have enjoyed his under-rated production. However, I put him on my DND list this year when I read him and Pop say he'd be shooting more threes this year (this happened during preseason). The primary reasons to draft him were his FG%, FT%, boards, and blocks...and moving out to the perimeter would make a pretty big dent in almost all of those things. And that's exactly how it has played out. His threes are up, FG%, boards, and blocks are down. So it's partially father time, but partially his change in play style as well, which was made public prior to the season starting and most fantasy drafts. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

FantasyMamba 60 Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 Clearly this is good for Poetl but do we think Lyles is an alright short term streamer given this Aldridge news as well? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Spurs said recently due to the crazy second half schedule they will give everyone minutes. Expect a huge bump for Poetl, Keldon and White Quote Link to post Share on other sites
