    Me, too, I liked how aggressive he was down low against Davis - and pleasantly he did well against him. Couple really nice takes in the lane, that one with the fake, and the other just straight powered up on AD. But yeah, AD is pretty darned good. I think I caught myself saying "he's so good" a couple dozen times last night.

    He should not be playing at all. Not only was he visibly limping at times around the court, but his proprioception and his kinetic chain are off. I'm nervous of him injuring something else.

    Should probably shut him down for a couple games especially against the Bulls and Raptors.

    that's what i meant. you could tell he wasn't calibrated; that's why he was coming down funny. gotta believe the training staff saw that if i did.

    That's what I think, but here he is playing tonight so... Hopefully he's okay. He's still a very young man so recovery will be easier, but why put him in that sort of risk?

    wasn't sure considering he was gobbling boards last year because he had no role in Boron's non-existent playbook

    I have to admit he looked much better. That young body bounces back so quickly.
