This column might all be in vein by the time it’s posted. Things can change so fast in NBA free agency that it’s reasonably laughable and highly cliche to say, “it’ll make your head spin.” But as of this time, LaMarcus Aldridge still hasn’t made a decision between the infernal San Antonio Spurs, the Phoenix Suns, or our beloved Houston Rockets.
Sources have said that Aldridge was “very impressed” by the Spurs presentation and “floored in a good way” by the Rockets. Portland can offer him the most money; but in the new, raised salary cap era of professional basketball, that really doesn’t matter.
