After his first 4 NBA games Aldridge is averaging a shade under 75% from the field, and has 0 turnovers.

Those are pretty shocking stats for a rookie who's getting 23 minutes per game.

He has been money so far and appear to be very good at finishing close to the hoop. Obviously Aldridge is not gonna stay at 75% but I'm hoping he can be one of the most efficient big men like Rasheed was for us in his early years.

But we shouldn't get too excited about those numbers as bad offensive Ben Wallace type players have had FG% over 60 since they only take the very highest percentage shots and do not help out initiating or creating any offense.

once we run some plays for him, that percentage is going to go down fast. but i would still like to see us run a few plays for him.

LA has really, really suprised me. I was in the camp that thought he would not even be a contributer until next year at least. But, what he has done so far is very suprising. He is going to be an elite player, and sooner rather than later. I love Brandon Roy, but I think their is a real possibility that LA comes closer to getting ROY than Roy.

Really? Wow. I think Roy has a much more complete game right now, and is way ahead of Aldridge. But I also love Aldridge and am thrilled that the Blazers got him. I think these two guys will be our cornerstones for many years.

Most guards do have a more complete game then big men. Very few big guys have the ball handling skills that guards do, if any.
