Sucks that we have a back to back so early in the year. Almost assuredly going to start 0-3 with AD going another 40 minutes.

Have you watched the Pelicans before this season?

Guy has maxed out at 68 games for his career.

At the rate they are using him, I will be shocked if he plays 60 games this year. 40 of those 60 healthy.

Quail also lodged the same complaints in the game thread. That was just stupid.

While this is true, most of his injuries have been contact injuries. Obviously the more minutes you play the more chance for contact, but averaging 5 more minutes a game isn't going to make diving into the first row or banging his hand on the rim any more dangerous.

Yeah. I was happy to see them keep fighting v the Warriors and make it a game. But knew that meant Davis would get maxed out again.

the Maester nailed it last night

I honestly never been so frustrated watching this team. AD has always been good but I haven't seen a player play at this level since prime Kobe and Bron and this dude has to depend on frick Tim Fraizer, Hill, and Lance. This shite ain't right last year he was having a off year so it was more bearable. Just don't have this dude get injured before Jrue or Reke. Get back. And for how much you guy hate Tyreke if Lance is able to play in this system and play well this guy would do wonders for helping this team. We just need one secondary scoring threat and none of these guys can capitalize.

The difference between Lance and Tyreke is Tyreke will probably get paid a lot more than Lance next year. Lance also looks bigger/stronger so I think he could guard the SF spot better.

Like I don't think you guys don't truly understand how trash these guys are despite them having good games. Teams haven't been showing them any respect and all 5 players are focused on AD and none them can capitalize on it. Can you imagine if the tryed that shite with Jrue or Reke on the floor the would put up 30/10 easy. But nah we have to pat Tim on the back because he had 21 points because the Warriors were fine with him getting it while their interior D was embarrassing. They couldn't even capitalize on the nuggets pg rotation on flabby and sick Nelson and trash Mudiay. The only reason we were in these games because AD is playing other worldly this man does no deserve this. Guys on this team get 0 props from me but the defense looks 10x better.

I'm not talking about next year I'm talking current season neither will be here next year really. They don't fit Gentry's scheme and Lance is a better defender while Reke is a better scorer and we can desperately use his scoring.
