LaMarcus Aldridge : (2) " I feel like, of course, Portland didn’t want me to leave, but I feel like at the end of the day it’s good to have a fresh start. " - LaMarcus Aldridge " My biggest thing I’ve learned is just putting time into getting ready. When we’re young, you just go on the court and just hoop. But I think as you get older, it’s more about, making sure everything is firing and making sure everything is ready to go and warmed up. " - LaMarcus Aldridge
