    For 90% of the game, he was outplayed by Ayton and McGee. Really struggled until 'Do and Russ spoon fed him late.

    Unacceptable lack of effort

    We have to remember that Bron and Rondo spoon fed him all the way to a chip too. He is the franchise player . He was on cruise control though for too long in this one.

    AD was trash tonight. And his behavior with Dwight was unprofessional and unacceptable. Weak stuff AD.

    I agree, AD can show leadership in much better ways than that. Didn’t really like seeing that

    Strong words. But I agree. First time in his Lakers tenure I’ve truly been disappointed in AD.

    Came off as a fake tough guy putting his hands on happy go lucky Dwight. Especially when he’s basically Bambi on ice the entire game on the floor letting Ayton, McGee and Crowder physically own him. Not impressed at all. Very disappointed.

    I have been defending AD for as long as I can remember, but this is getting ridiculous. Get your s**t together man.

    AD was embarrassed on the court all night. Where is that desire to win I keep hearing about? Either AD is not a team first guy or Vogel is an idiot. Everyone here seems to know where AD needs to be.

    his soft d on crowder early was pretty embarrassing, and i'm probably the forum's biggest AD supporter.

    if he wants to play pf, he needs to be 20lbs lighter. pick a lane.

    One day he's Wilt, next day he's Mihm (post ankle injury).

    AD is turning out to be a suped-up Lamar Odom.

    Yeah, kinda. We were saying the same things about Odom, until Pau came and then it didn't matter whether Odom scored 8 or 28. We would just plug him in to be the jack of all trades and do a bit of everything. But he wasn't a superstar like AD is and even came of the bench. But yeah... there are some early Odom flashbacks here.
