As amazing as AD is, with a back-up like Ryno, there should be no reason they have a let-down.

3 big games coming up with the Bulls, Mavs, and OKC this week. It should be a good test against some legitimate squads.

At least we have Ryno back.

It's gonna be ugly without AD though.

Wanna bet? I like my odds for one out of three if you want to go for it.

I really like the odds of 2 out of 3. OKC will obviously be a tough one, but Bulls w/o Rose and the Mavs are certainly winnable.

I'll bet you too. They take one out of three. It's a fool's bet to take 0 for 3.

Bulls and Mavs can be had; OKC will be tough. With Davis out, they can either play Smiht/Amundson too much or go all out attacking, small ball. I hope they commit to it and go small.

I actually like Aminu at the 4 sometimes...it keeps him off the perimeter and into the paint, where he belongs.

Jrue, Gordon, Reke, Aminu, Anderson can work as a finishing 5 IMO.

Offensively we will be fine. We will score enough points to give us a chance against all three. Defensive will be the question. Catch one of those teams on even a remotely off-night, and I like the Pels.

It's time for the 37 million $$ backcourt to play big boy ball... Maybe this will teach us that Ryno can play C

Depends on the other team a bit, but I agree. His weaknesses aren't as big a deal as a 4. When Davis comes back, he needs to be paired with Anderson off the bench.

Chicago will be tough because I dont like Aminu on Boozer. Will need the guard to step up- is Butler still hurt for Chicar? But Aminu has just a good a chance v Dirk as anyone else.

The problem is, our defense was the issue with AD. I'm pretty scared how bad it will be without him
