NBA ALL-STAR WEEKEND


February 13, 2015


LaMarcus Aldridge


NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK


Q. You look in the NBA now, who are some guys you feel are not getting the attention that should be in your position?
LaMARCUS ALDRIDGE: A lot of guys. I think Cousins should be in the conversation. Now he's here. James wasn't here at first. Now he's definitely here. I think it's the process. I went through the process. You stick with the process, it pays off.

Q. (Inaudible) .
LaMARCUS ALDRIDGE: He's grown a lot. I've seen him since he first came in the league to now. I think he's matured a lot on the court and off the court. I think it's been good for him. Shown him the culture of our team playing. He's a very talented big guy.

Q. His skill set?
LaMARCUS ALDRIDGE: He can dribble, he can shoot. He does it offensively.

Q. You mentioned earlier the playoffs, you guys are focusing on fixing the little things. Your weaknesses, what are they exactly?
LaMARCUS ALDRIDGE: I told you, no, just trying to get better defensively, guard the pick-and-roll better. Being a better team at the rim, not let other teams get to the rim. Overall trying to guard guys better.

Q. Are you happy that Damian is here this weekend?
LaMARCUS ALDRIDGE: I'm ecstatic. He's definitely played well and should be here. And I'm happy he's here now.

Q. A week ago you joked you were a boring All-Star. What do you mean by that?
LaMARCUS ALDRIDGE: Because I don't jump high. I don't windmill. I'm kind of like Dirk where I -- maybe even less than Dirk. I don't do anything flashy. It's just me being a regular.

Q. Will you campaign with Steve to start?
LaMARCUS ALDRIDGE: No. If he wants to start me, he starts. I'm not going to campaign.

Q. It seemed like you came back and had a great game against the Wizards, the next three four games --
LaMARCUS ALDRIDGE: Just my mindset. I'm not going to be wishy-washy. Once I knew I was in, I was in. Once I went through the whole process, am I going to be in or am I out, when I was in, I was in.

Q. Have you changed your game at all? You have to catch the ball with your right hand more?
LaMARCUS ALDRIDGE: Yes, I have to focus on using my right hand more. But other than that everything is the same.
