I get the historical argument for keeping AD, but he doesn’t have the mental or intangible makeup of a typical superstar. Only way I keep him is if we get at least a 2 year commitment from him and again I’m wary of trusting a guy that has had 85 different types of injuries in 6 years. Trade him for multiple pieces. That way our future isn’t tied solely to AD’s health or attitude. This shouldn’t even be a discussion.


I mean his “makeup” was just fine the year before. He let Lebron get in his ear and spoil him some what. Plus I think AD has to realize that the move Lebron’s group tried to pull was to the benefit of Lebron more so than AD.

All last year proved to me was that AD needed Rondo and Cousins to guilt him into playing harder than he ever had in his life. After those 2 leaders left in Free Agency, AD realized he didn’t have the mental makeup to lead the team himself and he tried to force his way to the team with Rondo and Lebron so he could be 3rd leader again. And yes, I’m aware the organizational structure was a bit of a shitshow, but we still had the talent and pieces to be as good as last year. AD just didn’t want it badly enough. Effort wins games in the regular season and he gave almost zero.
