Rid yourselves of AD get what you can like KAT and assets or out East for I don't know DeMar Vuc picks? LA would be better off without him and just damn near starting over while letting LeBron ride it out or figure it out.


kat is a bit lazy.

Thing is, there probably isn’t any team willing to even give up a first for AD.

And I don't even get excited when they get a lead because you know it's gonna evaporate and they'll lose by 8+pts or squeak out the W.

Oh and I can't stand D Lo. Little Debbie snack cake soft. He hoops like he's at LA Fitness playing with his friends and not like he's in a League trying to win a chip.

Nurkic is way too slow to guard AD. AD should be attacking him off the dribble every single possession.

That he is but that seems to coincide with his mom and uncle dying from COVID and he hasn't been the same. Maybe never will be but that seems to be when he fell off from my recollection.

Maybe a new city and not being in Minny would help?

I just hate seeing AD shoot and fall a minimum of 10x a game wondering "is he hurt this time?" while waiting to see if he gets up.

The fact Suns are up is shocking. Durant refuses to pass but also can't do anything both because he's aging and because Lakers are swarming. EG thinks he's Curry. Nurkic can't stop anyone from driving.

Crazy to me that anyone thinks Durant is top dawg on the Suns. It is so clearly Booker

Also I get why Lakers are limiting Bron but why exactly aren't they making AD a focal point

Lakers offense looks like chit. Reeves is probably their best half court offensive player when he should ideally be the 3rd

The Lakers aren't deep enough to manage to LeBrons minutes and get a good seed, this is especially true if AD isn't aggressive.

That's a bigger statement win against the full strength Lakers than the Warriors if this keeps up...
