over the season, spot on. but in this situation, with 20 games left and only 3 NBA bigs on the roster- (assuming health) put him out there and let him play.

I agree. Like I said, I don't have a problem with them ramping up his minutes, especially if he gets a favorable matchup like tonight.
Assuming he's not in foul trouble, it wouldnt surprise me to see him get 30+ minutes against Portland. I thought AD had his best all around game of the season when they played Portland before the all star break.
It is the second night of a back to back though. We'll see if that affects his minutes

I can understand pulling AD at the end of this game... yes he was just 2 boards shy of 20/20... but in a game that was out of reach and as others said he may have tweeked his shoulder... no need to risk it
no I didn't expect a win tonight... but I'm tired of seeing regression... I want to see the steps in the right direction and that this team is getting better
I understand at points every team will go through down times... but a solid 2nd season into this particular rebuild... I'd like to start seeing the light at the end of the tunnel... last season was supposed to be Dan Dickau season v 2.0... not this 1
