The Official NBA Season Thread: Las Vegas Summer League | USA VS South Sudan at 3 ET on Fox

[sohi 23]

People get on AD because he has the talent of a top 5 player in the league but he doesn't always bring IT every night.

He didn't put up 2K MyPlayer Barbie stats tonight but he dominated that game and set the tone for the Lakers.

We've also seen him looking lethargic and disengaged some games, hell even in this series where he's just another guy on the court.

That's the enigma of AD.

Bruh had one of the most legendary defensive games of all time yesterday, but since he only had 16 points on offensive some people will **** on him and say he needs to do more and he’s not even top 75 lol.

He’s the best playoff big and best defender in the world and it is not close. WHEN HEALTHY, There is no other big man I’d rather have for the playoffs

nick. - exactly.

On that Rasheed Wallace, tell my wife and kids I’m in the car.

 

[the coolness]

If Luke Kennard had played this could've just as easily only been a 34-pt loss

 

[nick.]

Lakers-Warriors/Kings is the kind of series where the thread moves 40 pages at 2:51 AM. Beyond toxic. People are going to be banned.

I can't wait.

 

[heelsandeers]

I've had dreams where I'm hooping but moving slow as hell

Be chasing down loose balls exactly like this

 

[dman14]

if you watched the regular season, the lakers matched up well vs the griz. even with the trades and new transactions, if AD was healthy, they were going to be a problem and a handful.

JJJ really needs on limiting those stupid fouls

 

[pmatic]

PUT SOME RESPECT ON HIS NAME.

 

[sneeker]

Teams should learn by now that WestBrook is bad luck guy to teams. guess teams are too stubborn or is it mainly economics?

 

[osh kosh bosh]

Anthony Davis is just not a very skilled individual offensive player.
So obviously as his physical tools decline his offense is going to become more inconsistent.

but his defense is still great,

 

[you go boy]

Kyle Lowry better than Ja

Y’all just gotta get these absurd takes off huh

Ja can't even get out the 2nd round unlike Lowry who's been there a few times already

how the lakers match up with the warriors based on the regular season

Clear proof he kicks players on purpose

he wants the role of Pearl so bad....

Just puts more onus on the guards to set him up like D'Lo did last night.

Nice adjustment by HiP last night to force Triple J into the action, get the switch at the three point line and AD got a couple of easy baskets.

Where are the leaders of ALA addict4sneakers and @wavycrocket

I think all people really ask is for AD to consistently be engaged and not have those games where he plays like a corpse.

Can’t believe Kerr threw Kuminga in the bushes. They got cooked with Looney in when the Kings went small and Poole is legit out there point shaving. Wouldn’t Kuminga be a better option defensively right now?

they matched up very well vs the warriors, i don't think i ever questioned that. i expect the wc champs to be the winner of that series. i said the lakers were a dangerous team coming into the playoffs. ad and bron will be a handful. if role player like rui, reaves and dlo continue to contribute, they are a tough out.

Hell yeah, I’m just talking **** it’s going to be tough af.

Celtics/76ers & lakers/warriors seem like conference final series to me as well.

I don't see Kerr putting Kuminga in. But I think they'll need more DDV and Moody though. Maybe GP2 if they can stomach the spacing issues.

And I think they should ditch the Draymond-Loon combo for game 7. One or the other, but not both at the same time. But I think the veterans will lobby to play together.

I remember I wanted the black/red color-way so bad in 4th grade
