| This dude has played 122 out of his last 131 games, including the playoffs. That's 93%. |

| Worth mentioning that he played 76 games this year--his most since 2018. And just had his best rebounding season ever. |

It’s actually his high for his career, and couple of the misses were due to injuries. day to Davis is a myth at this point |

| Played the most games in his career. What is the complaint now? He is not Jokic? |

No complaints, AD has been fantastic this season. He’s probably the team MVP.

| Not too pleased to read he will be on team USA but I understand why. However leading into next season. That’s almost no break for AD. AD strikes me as a guy that would be best served using the offseason to rest and focus on strengthening his body to deal with injuries (as he has been the last few summers). |

He and LeBron should not play during the summer. |

I heard the back spasms were affecting him in last game
But he thinks he will be 100 percent by next game |

He matched or outplayed Joker tonight. This loss ain't on him.

I agree I think Rui just can’t do it Almost every play I saw where Jokic attacked Rui was successful |

Shoulda traded DNo when you had the chance. Now CAA could hold Robbie over a barrel during negotiations this summer.
And for the umpteenth time, if you truly are sincere in building around AD, you need players with a defensive pulse. Allocating a near max player amount for DLo/Rui ain’t it! Either get AD a defensive starting center or legit perimeter 2way defenders like Jrue & OG if you still want yo hold AD hostage at the center spot. Dude could be an elite wing defender, but we keep neutering our defense by playing him at the 5.
This FO will never learn…smfh.

| Yeah he was brilliant last night. Of course the big question is whether he can now do it consistently across the series. It's really the only way we might have a fighting chance (of not getting swept). |

Pretty demoralizing that we still lost convincingly given AD's brilliance and LeBron outplaying Murray most of the game. |

Anyone but AD guarding Jokic is basically giving up 2 points. Lebron and Rui are too small to bother any shots. |

Saw this movie last year and yet there is only Hayes and Woods for any size. Mgmt apparently hasn’t caught on that when they were big, they could matchup with Denver and has done the opposite with totally predictable results… |

Thought he had a shot at 3rd place but he is not among the three finalists.
