    The other teams have players too, it's not like they aren't trying to win the game either. It's the NBA, these are the best basketball players in the world.

    And an OX is a castrated bull. I'm fully aware of that.

    The past few games there were incidents that scared the crap out of me with AD.

    Last night when he sprained his thumb, the game against Houston where he tweaked his ankle, and the prior game where he went down grabbing his knee.

    Every game whenever his body language reacts the way he does makes me hold my breathe thinking “oh boy is this the injury that keeps him out for 2 months”

    Everybody wanted AD at the 5 as the only big on the floor. He puts up great stats in that look, but it will come at a price.

    OX is my fraternity letters, not the animal. NOW, you are fully aware. Which would be the first on here.

    AD is a soft beta and shouldn't call out his teammates for his inadequacy to lead his team to a win against crap opponents. Get inside the paint, fool! and stop shooting fall aways:Jacksnicker:

    What do you have against variety of ways to score and skills? Would you have chosen Kareem for your tag if all he did was dunk or shoot within 4’ of the hoop during his career? ;) It’s not like AD never dunks the ball. He plays the game how it makes him happy to play. Sheesh all you macho guys. :rofl:
