    He cannot stay healthy. It's alarming.

    Every game and every fall, I think he might be out for the year. I think there was a less chance of injury with a Ja drive or prime Rose drive vs AD tying his shoes.

    If his back was acting up before, this game didn't help matters. When it stiffens, I wouldn't be surprised if he sits the next one.

    I didn't watch the entire game and had to check what happened after reading all the doom in here. Is it just me or is everybody overreacting as usual with everything AD related? It doesn't seem like he's really injured. He came back after his fall (which admittedly did look awful) and seemed ok to me.

    Mid 3rd (I think), they were applying s*** to his lower back. Not encouraging.

    never!

    25/8, anchored the d, one of only two players with a + rating on the night, came back after a nasty fall to still make an impact.

    garbage.

    He didn't look OK. He was in pain and at times couldn't go side to side on defense. He was laboring and grimacing every time the camera cut to him. He played through it, props for that. But once it stiffens up which would happen after the game, that's when he'll really feel it. If he didn't enter the game or the season with back pain then I wouldn't be as concerned.

    depends on where the pain was before and what happened on the landing. that was a nasty fall that had to have hurt like a sob. of course, instead of praising our star for playing after it, we whine a lot.

    and yeah, he might have to miss a game or two depending on what things look like. that said, i optimistic that it's not a long-term injury.

    He was playing great!
    Without him, this team is really bad- that’s where all the frustration comes from. He was injured before game one and that was a really hard fall.
    Let’s hope his body can recover quickly from it.

    Seems like nobody will be shocked when/if he falls and is injured for the rest of the year. Sounds like he has fallen out of the good graces of fans enough that he also won't get much sympathy along the path of his recovery.

    Also seems like his dream of being the next "Lakers Big" is never going to happen to any serious degree. Operating in Louisiana is just a little different. Clearly Beta.

    You’re just being “negative.”

    Who said he was garbage? Literally no one said that. Everyone said he played really well, but that he’s clearly injury prone and it’s a shame. Poor guy is doing so much on defense he’s gonna break down, it’s on the FO for building this crappy, tiny roster. I don’t get why you go to such silly hyperbole sometimes.

    Alright everyone needs to kiss and make up...lol. We need those big hulk hands so we can pound our frustrations out on each other. This roster will doom us all.

    What? I don’t call AD Mr Glass. I don’t think it’s a joke that he’s hurt a lot, I think it’s sad, it’s a shame. I never called him garbage though, I love the dude, I just said I’d trade him while we can because sadly he cannot stop getting hurt. I know that’s not a popular take, but sometimes you have to do the hard thing, and if we aren’t serious about contending with him then we should just rebuild.

    I don't think he was replying specifically to you and agree with:

    Look at the mocking and SOS and here we go again stuff posted today after that really nasty fall with his size and weight from high up last night. Which he did his best to gut it out and still play.
