Needs to work on his rebounding. Can't have Danny Green regularly catching more boards than him.
I'm sure when DG drops 50 on 29 attempts AD will be more than happy to pull down 25 boards.
I'm absolutely fascinated by people who nitpick wild success when they play no role in the preparation or action.
21-3 is WILD success...this reminds me of that kid in Airplane talking to KAJ... _________________ "If You're Afraid To Fail...Then You're Probably Going To Fail."

Vuc isn’t gonna play on Wednesday.. I guess you can make a point for Ban and Sabonis, Parker shouldn’t be added but we all know how awesome it would be if AD owns Giannis.

Defensive stats are all trash. AD is by far the best overall defender in the league
He is the best but not by far but it does sound nice and it can’t be unproven so I am fine with it lol
I think he is by far the best. No one else in the league defends the paint and perimeter as well as he does. Giannis is the 2nd closest.
Where do Embiid, Jokic, Gobert, and Draymond rank?
Embiid, Jokic, and Gobert can't guard the perimeter like AD can. Draymond can't protect the paint like AD can. Only Giannis does both but AD is still better than him on D. I've never seen someone impact defense as much as AD has this season.

You would be wrong. He isn’t by far the best.
I think he has the potential to be the better defensive player though. But Giannis is just a force defensively. Surely the advanced stats back that up.

Which advanced stat accurately measures defense? I'd say they do a better job at measuring team defense, but very vague for individual defense.

No, you are incorrect. Review the film and check the play type stats instead of the all inclusive stats. AD is by far better

Would you guys trade AD for Doncic?
That's the crazy thing I've thought about. If you could see the future, you could have had Doncic for less than what you gave for AD. Lonzo and Ingram alone probably would have gotten Atlanta to bite. Right now, cause of his play and age, Doncic is probably the most untouchable player in the league. I don't know about the Lakers, but I know Dallas would turn it down.
