OK, so I thought it would be fun during the off-season for us to go through each player and rate them from 1-10 on a bunch of attributes. I will post a new player to rate every couple days, but will keep the same attributes for each player. I have come up with a pretty long list of attributes, some more important than others, and some more important for one position than another, but we may be able to see some interesting comparisons once we have rated each player. Once we have done every player i will create a spreadsheet to show averages and comparisons.

Today we will start by rating Aldridge from 1-10 on every attribute. 1=terrible 10=incredible
