    The more I look this A/B comparison and zoom into it, and then think back to the photoshop job done on AC’s pic before last season (or one before?) …. you just know AD’s going to get one of those …. errr …. “random” drug tests too. Dude’s finally got his “prime” Big Man muscles. Dayam / Yowza!

    i'm really most interested in his leg strength, tbh. tim duncan was never beefy up top but never had any problems going at big centers for 20mpg, either. strong base.

    I doubt he and staff are unaware of that importance plus all these guys lurk here and he knows legs are Kenzo’s thing. But he was injured in his shoulder area, allegedly, for some of at least the early part of our championship season prior to the covid halt.

    will he still fall down all the time? That's my question.

    i really think a lot of his falls are on purpose, as i've mentioned before. sometimes falling is better than the strain on the joints it takes not to fall.

    has anyone ever asked him about it? guess it would be an awkward reporter question: "so, i've noticed you fall down a lot..."

    I know Roy Hibbert said he was taught to fall down for less wear and tear, I assume AD is doing the same.

    I assume it’s because he’s weak and has poor balance, like a baby dear

    if AD has poor balance, then most people must be fall-down drunk all the time.

    With his all his injuries weight training plus also just stuff like yoga and pilates. Increased flexibility plus strength should help him

    I do have an overly critical view of this team right now.

    I need to sit down and think about what’s going on with life that has me not enjoying our assembled super team to its fullest.

    Rob has almost done too good of a job.we might go 82-0, and I’m over here upset about losing Caruso and how we handled our quota this year. SMH

    :Jeanie Srsly:

    I shall adjust my stinkin’ thinkin and try to enjoy this more.

    AD looks imposing
    Carmelo looks lean, has turned back the clock, and is going for his first DPOY
    Lebron is healthy and will be able to share the load with the greatest Laker 3some since?
    We have ridiculous improvements on 3 pt shooting on the team
    Our backups have backups
    We have size
    We have versatility
    We have strength
    We have shot blocking
    We have rebounding
    We have 3 of the 4 top active career assists guys
    We brought several Lakers back home
    Jeanie just had her Birthday
    Kyrie isn’t on the team
    Jimmy Buss is back to betting at horses in the bar.

    so much to be thankful for!
