    Unless you think all black people look alike, they really don't look each other at all.

    He definitely needs to get more aggressive but he isn't eddie griffin.

    He has a post up game and a good jump shot and has excellent fundamentals. AND most importantly, he has a great work ethic and is a good guy on and off the court. He's a guy who actually can be coached unlike Griffin who's just a waste of talent.

    He'll do just fine and will be a good if not great NBA player.

    He is NOTHING like EG. Did LaMarcus Aldridge have some questionable incidents during college? No. Does he shoot 3 pointers like EG? No. Does he actually have post moves that work, unlike EG? Yes.

    It remains to be seen how hard LA works and how much he improves once he gets in the NBA, but saying he is another EG is silly. Character-wise (at least so far) and on the offensive end, there is no similarity at all.

    If Lamarcus Aldridge doesn't come out, he's an absolute buffoon. He'll never have a better oppurtunity, and it isn't as though he won't be able to afford to finish getting his degree should that whole NBA multi-millionaire thing not work out.
