    He looks like he is in his 21st season on these B2Bs more than James does

    Weak sauce tonight. 10 points? Just unacceptable. Dallas is NOT a good defensive team. No excuse for AD not taking advantage of them.

    He just has nothing offensively on back to backs. Still helps us on D and the boards though

    Come on man.
    You had nobody in your way tonight.
    Yeah, Kidd knows how to scheme well against you, but man up.
    Another disappearing act.
    Another night.

    might as well just rest him on back to backs since he doesn't even bother showing up for the second game

    10 of the next 12 on the road. Let's see what AD's made of.

    BTW: maybe I'm getting senile but I don't recall us playing a stretch of 12 games, 10 on the road. It's weird. We'll see what all our guys are made of. I assume this crap is due to the tournament thing.

    He’ll be AD, dominant in a few games, mediocre in most and absolutely garbage in some

    that's bizarre, as he had been trending back up there. i noticed he's taking fewer jumpers period as the season has progressed, and i'm wondering if the injury might be affecting his jumpshot--at least in his mind.

    i'm disheartened that ham and his staff have had a full year plus to come up with a counter to packing the paint on AD and have found absolutely nothing.

    yeah, the best way to counter a defense with 5 guys in the paint is to punish them by making the many, many wide open threes such a scheme allows.

    we don't, so they keep doubling AD in the paint.

    i will say that nothing's preventing him from running back in transition when other guys miss shots...

    Mediocre in most? From 8 days ago. Plus the defense.
