Asserting himself as the top player at his position, Aldridge put together a fantastic all-around season.

This was a team that I personally felt was a title contender this season until the devastating injury to Wesley Matthews happened after the All-Star break. They lost rather handily to the Grizzlies in round one, and rumors are now swirling on who is supposedly leaving and who might be staying.
