Anthony Davis Discussion: Thanks For The Ring AD!!!

A CL/LB tradition wight Shaka:

 

Thanks for lookin’ out for me Bro and giving me the invite to Hell with you.

 

So AD equals evil? I need to check to see if I was on that page in Lebron’s thread

 

As long as he mixes some training in with his enjoyment, I’m not mad at him.
However, if he gives partial effort throughout multiple games this upcoming season like he did at the beginning of last, I won’t hold back.

 

"We need him to be healthy"

That pretty much is it right there. If he misses more than 20 games, it's a wrap on the season.

 

Nah, he’s going to play every game this up coming season.

 

Oh, he's missing 20 games easily. Dude is soft He missed 20 or more games 5 times. He also missed 18, 15 and 13 games as well. Played 75 games twice and that's about it.

 

Probably doesn’t even have “leg days”.

 

AD is going to play 70 games during the regular season. That is based on nothing more than that is how many we need him to play to be competitive. Lebron already said he isn't missing the playoffs again so either were making them or he is requesting a trade...lol. Ham is either going to toughen these guys up or expose them for the what they are.

 

Expose them for who we already know they are?
LeGM has to do less on offense if he’s going to be able to do more on defense due to his age.
AD has zero excuses. He either proves that he can be reliable or not.
If ANYONE expects Russ to change, they are just fooling themselves. I still think he’s getting moved, no matter how much the hot wind being blown about him staying has increased. I don’t get easily swayed by narratives.

 

AD missed 15 games a season prior to coming here. that's who he is. but for the 65-75 games you have him, you're going to win a lot. and if he's there for the playoffs, you have a chance at a ring.

i actually hope he doesn't kill himself trying to prove he can play 75+ games only to have him not available for the playoffs.

 

70 games and a more tuned in version of AD will go along way toward making that happen. Thank you coach Ham.

 

This is the correct answer.

 

If we can get 65+ games out of AD and Lebron and they play those games together. We’ll be in the thick of it.

 

saw a video of AD saying he hadn't shot a ball since april 5th, which was...distressing, almost regardless of when it was recorded as he's clearly indicating that it's been a while. maybe the mystery of him becoming a bad shooter is solved.

 

Some people live to ball. It's in their blood. Preparation for their passion comes naturally.

Some ball to live better because they are physically gifted.

AD doesn't appear to be the first option.
