Anthony Davis Discussion: Only Player On Both All NBA + All Def

Rebounding like a mf

 

Rudy Gobert rebounds more
Brook Lopez blocks more
16 Players score more

Not a mf. Just an above average beta season.

 

Amazing how much more he can do defensively with a couple active wing defenders -- Cam and Dinwiddie.

Strong almost 20/20 game while being doubled and swarmed by their guards.

 

Beast mode.

If not for having to pick his spots at times because of foul trouble, this is another 40/20 game on the Pacers. He really has their number which surprises me based on their players. On paper they should be able to offer up more resistance against AD than they do.

 

let's see that against Sac Town and Denver.

 

Finally, even media with non stop bullshiting about" street clothes" recognizes AD
Btw Davis played in more games this season than Giannis Antetokounmpo.

 

There is no way this is true. Admittedly I'm not looking it up and going game by game, but I refuse to believe Wilt didn't have 55+ double-doubles in seasons in which he played 81-82 games (4 of his 5 seasons here), and averaged around 19 rebounds per game every season.

EDIT: Yeah, I checked. Not true.

 

I counted 60 games in which Wilt had a double-double, for the Lakers in their 69-13 "greatest team ever" 1971-72. The only reason it wasn't 82 was because he wasn't called on to score for that team.

See HERE and count for yourself.

I suspect these stat-heads conveniently think the "real NBA" only began with Magic and Bird. All-too-often. If you're gonna broadcast all-time stats on something, be wary of leaving Wilt out, 'cuz you're gonna get burned, as any one of us could have just looked it up like I just did.

Note that in Game 78 of that season, we beat GSW 162-99 and Wilt only played 25 mins, but still had 10/10.

Feel free to tell this Xitter guy he's lazy. For all of us. NOT "end of list" dude. Yer LAZY!

 

BeastMode AD is a real treat.

 

AD must be on a tear for the "he's definitely not wilt chamberlain" talk to be starting up again.

 

law of averages, he'll be out for the play in game, and the Lakers will get wiped out

allegedly

 

Welp - we neeed a big game from AD tonight without Bron.

We only got 22 and 13 from him last time and if it weren't for DLO going off for 44, we lose that game by double digits.

We need AD to outplay Giannis and then the rest of our team has to chip in by committee.

Going to be a tough game though without Bron...AD has to put up a masterclass.

 

Antetokounmpo (29 points + 21 rebounds + 11 assists
AD 34 + 23 rebounds+ 4 blocks.
At least didn't suck like vs Sabonis

 

I didn't start watching until a minute left in regulation but he was easily the mvp of the game to close out the win at the end of the 4th and the OT's. Yes he deserves some love.

 

Gutsy performance from AD. Showed heart and toughness!

 

wouldn't be surprised if he sits tomorrow

 

He should , what happened to his leg ? Only catched the game from 96-101

 

I wish we can rest him tomorrow, but I doubt we can beat anyone without him. Lebron has to pick up the slack tomorrow cause the rest of the core guys are gonna be gassed.
