    It was nice of him to show up in the 4th, but you can't have this for the first 36 minutes of an elimination game


    D and rebounding was there all night. That's not enough. When Bron is doing what he's doing, you can't dig deep and find anything?

    It was weak sauce. Too many disappearing moments this series especially tonight.

    Found his offense too late. Can’t lie. I Really hoped for more from him tonight. Great defense though and it was often one on three for rebounds. Still. We needed a monster game from him and just didn’t get it.

    Disappointing and I love AD but was hoping for more.

    Please next year please get a real C: the Lakers need a banger on the glass and with setting screens. Frees up AD as well. Go back to the bubble formula

    Yup, they needed the 2020 Dwight/JaVale version.

    Good luck this summer, almost every team will be looking for a C.

    Where did he disappear Jones? The guy was playing 1 on 5 on D, for the entire series. A lot to ask for a power forward, and expect him to score a lot in every game too.

    Finally I agreed with Slick lol.

    The defense burden on AD shoulders were too great. He needs help.

    Most players that scores a lot, take their break on the defensive side.

    AD had 21, 14, and 3 blocks. Yeah his offense comes and goes, but he is our entire defense it seems.

    Not enough offense when the season is on the line. He has disappeared for long spells, even entire games throughout these playoffs. Sorry, but that’s not good enough for supposedly being the best player on a team with Championship aspirations. Having to force the ancient LeBron to carry the offensive load is inexcusable.
