He's gotten calls, but as an RFA his situation is much muddier than others. I'm hoping the Lakers were one of the calls, but it's hard to say at this point.
^^The Aldridge second date supposedly was to start within the hour... Lakers hoping not ending up in the "friend" zone.
Wouldn't be surprised if it ain't us... I don't care for one "star" for all the chips...I want all the chips divvied up for multiple contributors. Common sense...
One thing that will be interesting to watch is the duration of this meeting. If it's a pity party it will be one drink, apologize and out the door. If it goes longer than an hour it's no longer a pity party in my mind.
Its not a pity party. Players and teams don't have time to waste on f***ing nothing. Its a last ditch effort from the Lakers to come out of this looking like a BOSS
It could be a pity party in the respect that both parties know Aldridge isn't going there, but they can both make each other feel better by talking.
Maybe he signs with us and we sign & trade for LA We hail mitch as a hero and get drunk to celebrate winning basketball back in los angeles Or not Idk what to think Is there anything else ive missed Did the 2nd meering start yet? Whats the news on deandre?
No news on DeAndre who I believe has a meeting with the Knicks either today or tomorrow. We won't sign both Harris and Aldridge because Aldridge needs a Center. We've shown interest in Koufos and Amar'e.
Anybody know what LMA actually means by basketball analytics? Is he talking usage rate or win percentage or style of play?
