    He looks fantastic out there: it's funny when folks posted that where did the AD from NO go? Turns out he just need to be healthy

    …. and the first next basketball common / s*** happens injury that happens (for a BIG) who plays as actively both sides of the ball as AD does (when healthy) …. it will be the same old s*** reactions here again.

    I mean let’s be honest, if we were smart we’d trade him right now and get an absolute haul because he’s playing so damn well. But we won’t, we’ll continue to use he and LeBron to sell tickets while surrounding them with a bad team and continue to not even make the playoffs. I wouldn’t be surprised if AD walks when his contract is up because we were so unserious about winning with him, we’ve treated him as very unimportant while worrying mostly about LeBrons scoring title tour. That is if he can even still walk at the end of his contract.

    don't bother. and 12/15 is just another artificial date that fans made up to get mad about. there is no deadline except the actual trade deadline.

    Well actually it’s the very logical next date to see if we can find a good deal that makes sense this season and doesn’t **** our future.

    He is worth two OLEDs of this size right now. So Weezy isn’t wrong, it’s a proper haul.

    Only if we believe he's truly injury prone and/or not an "alpha" and can't be built around. Not all of us believe that. If the trades available now are worse than the ones available near the trade deadline (which I also believe to be true or at the very least probable), why should AD want the Lakers to make a trade ASAP? He's under contract for 2 more years if I'm not mistaken, he should also prefer the option to build a true contender next year instead of improving the team short term just for the sake of it.

    The reports of AD's death were greatly exaggerated.

    Bubble AD has returned and that guy was in the running for best player in the league (i.e. Giannis, Luka level)

    one of the best games, I've seen him play

    honestly didn't think we'd get to see this AD again.

    it's been so much fun watching him dominate again like he was just a few years ago

    everyone forgot this guy is a top 10 player when he's healthy

    Last year: every guy KAT, Giannis, JJ seemed to punk AD and that was just so wrong as he dominated them before. That has completely ended

    In terms of the overall impact rating, it's Luka, Giannis, AD, Jokic and Steph on top right now.
