    Wow …. not even going to fake it for the NBA honchos that frown on blatantly doing that stuff if you’re healthy enough to go in a marquee game like that?

    Look out Jeanie … maybe incoming fine.

    AD probably felt he had to calm Lakers Nation if they had put up “questionable for the ankle, foot or any other part of his body”.

    They way the NBA has treated us lately (refs) they can go **** themselves. Let Jeanie take the fine, a public message is needed.

    saw the play where AD was called for boxing out, and if that's how you're going to officiate the game, just make it a six-feet-and-under league already.

    i think we should strategically rest guys, but i get the frustration with it being the nets game. i would have picked the knicks game. it's on TNT; decent chance we lose even with both guys, imo (in part because it's on TNT). and it would center their absence and lead to questions about it. it's the kind of thing that would get silver's attention, as apparently his flagship franchise missing the playoffs due to referee incompetence isn't doing it by itself.

    seriously, if he thinks a bunch of memphis/minny, NO/utah playoff series is going to draw crowds...

    I think they picked the Nets game to rest because Bron would rather show out in The Garden.

    probably. which is why i don't think it's really in protest. they were going to sit one of the games out, i'm guessing.

    I tell you one thing... Kobe is turning in his grave each time this b******* happens. True sportsmanship and competition spirit has died with him.

    We now have all these fake-a** bums, like Ja, Booker and them dudes, running their mouths like they have achieved something.... and all this load management, buddy-buddy crap.

    It makes more sense because you want 1 of them playing if they were on load management

    quietly dominant in this one. only guy that gave the knicks any resistance on defense, and he made them pay attention to the paint on d. such a big difference when he's available.

    it's just a shame. we chose to try to outscore people with AD as one of our cornerstones. i don't get it. defense.

    He’s like 80% of our defense by himself. I don’t even know that it’s crazy to say that our defense looked better earlier this year because he was right physically and just that good and carrying us. He’s still working his way back now and can’t do it all right now, and he shouldn’t have to.

    It's weird that NO wasn't better how the hell did teams score against Jrue and AD.

    Would be fun to somehow get OG. Since my dream of pairing him with Turner as a legit all time defensive frontcourt is dead, now I can pine for OG to be paired with him (I know that ain't happening but damn AD Lebron Rui with OG would be hell to score against

    Solid game from AD tonight. He looked like he's shaken off the rust and is returning to form.
