Seagoville’s own LaMarcus Aldridge had his first dalliance with NBA burn last night against the hometown Mavericks. The former Longhorn, who was Portland’s second overall pick in last June’s draft, made his debut after missing the Blazers' first six games with a bad case of sportshurt.
Aldridge left our beloved Horns after his sophomore year, cheating us all out of the potentially devastating one-two punch with freshman Kevin Durant. We can at least take solace in the fact that the kid represented well, going for 10 and 8 despite seeing big doses of Dirk Nowitzness. Kind of makes up for all the suck Kenyon Martin has been doling out since he got stupid paid. Dallas hoops stand up!
