    Let’s rest him some more. The Kings are not awful, but they are not great either. Play Kuz/Dudley, they will be solid.

    Absolutely, come out strong and then limit Bron's minutes. That should serve as an extra motivation for him and everyone else; better to do that than having to catch up in the 3rd.

    We've been playing some good teams. We have a stretch of lower level teams, hopefully we can put up a big enough lead to lower his minutes.

    is fox playing? if so, we'd miss the extra paint protection.

    Well, if you care about what RDA said:


    Our next three games will be at home vs non-playoffs teams. We should rest AD all those three games and bring him back for the OKC game. Let Kuzma get some action.

    Who is this guy by the way? I've missed it. Is he legit and has real access to behind the scenes stuff?

    There are questions about his legitimacy but outside of the Kawhi fiasco, he was mostly correct. He called the Philly trade well before anyone even knew that Horford was being moved. He mentioned quite a few things leading to the AD trade before any media outlet picked up on it. IMO, he's legit. I truly think that Kawhi was interested in the Lakers right up until the Clippers pulled a hail mary and landed PG.

    AD played through a torn labrum on his left shoulder for 3 years as well. From his rookie season to 2016.

    Right shoulder, but we don't know for certain if it's a torn labrum.

    Get surgery on it right now - rest up - we can survive without him and probably still be a top 4/5 team. Priority needs to be HEALTH.
