The San Antonio Spurs were the frontrunner to sign LaMarcus Aldridge from the start of free agency, and eventually the expected happened. Aldridge still met with other teams, but why did he cancel on the New York Knicks?
New York’s horrendous season last year had nothing to do with it. If that was the reason, it wouldn’t make sense for Aldridge to meet with the Los Angeles Lakers twice. During an appearance on The Russillo Show on ESPN Radio earlier this week, Aldridge said he wasn’t interested in what the Knicks had in mind for him.
