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

Correct.

 

right. he's still not great at solving double teams, so catching in isolation if nobody's moving isn't a great way to maximize him on offense. having him and defenders moving makes him VERY difficult to manage.

and it's funny how everyone acts as though AD is a bad offensive player or something. he's a perennial 25ppg scorer. we didn't use him well the last two years, nor did we construct rosters or use lineups that maximized his abilities.

 

I give nobody any excuses on this roster.

If anything, Kurt gets a pass for having to deal with this whole team's b*******. I hope his marriage is ok. Linda seems like a real keeper. Too much stress is never good.

 

I think he brings it to himself. He wants the iso ball and to dribble it more in the perimeter, like a forward, but it doesn't suit him. I understand he wants to be protected from the physical game inside, but there's ways he can avoid physical battles and still be a force on the inside. He should finish lobs at least 5x a game easily.

Curious to see what type of game he brings next year, it's an important year for him as a build-up for the post-lebron

 

Kurt's entire job is to deal with this team's BS. FTM his wife's job is to deal with Jeanie's BS too. No passes for either. What both get is full complete responsibility for any BS there is on this team. These guys run it, Kurt is defacto BBall Prez and Jeanie delegates all her stuff to Linda.

 

Sarcasm meters on the fritz?

 

it's possible, but he never demanded that in NO. felt like he got the ball in better positions there pretty regularly, which is why he averaged nearly 30 a couple times despite being basically the same guy (his athleticism hasn't dropped off at all, for example).

we have him making catches standing still at the 45s behind the three point line. this is exactly how and where i want him catching the ball as an opponent. his touches should be on the move and nearer to the key unless it's a corner three. the only standstill catch he should get is in the post against a smaller defender or on the wing against a larger/slower one. to me, this isn't too hard, but maybe you're right and he's asked for it. i just don't see why when he's had more success the other ways.

 

Screaming A has heard that AD's value is low

Here's the quote:

It's from his Lakers should trade Bron rant from today

 

I've mentioned it. Don't think they'll do it, but it is the best chance at a quick rebuild.

 

if we do it, I hope Kurt gets appropriate credit for his influence on the topic

 

2 years, 20 mil, take it or leave it!

 

lol, sure stephen a. folks using you as their mouthpiece say AD's value is low. i mean, nobody can meet the pacers' price for myles turner, but AD could just be had, right? idiots.

 

poor AD

 

lol durant and kawhi and lillard in, AD out. ok bros.

 

paid for by Lebron to inspire his underperforming teammates
