re: Anybody else find it refreshing that the national media sees AD how we see him now?

Let's be real here, if we somehow won it all in the bubble, we'd be claiming that shite.

This Lakers implosion has really made them unify against him.

They traded their team and a ton of picks for a guy who was supposed to be the next big star after LeBron retired.

They have some serious buyer remorse now even with the Covid ring.

I have enjoyed hearing the different talking heads on NBA radio talk about how they now realize why the pelicans were always winning 30 something games a year with AD.
They constantly talk about the need for AD to step up, yet he just rarely does.
He's a bitch. and hes actually starting to look like a fat bitch. Turned on their game just in time to watch LeBitch miss the game tying free throws saturday night and the first thing my wife said was AD looked like he got fatter.

If the Pels won the bubble title every media outlet in the world would say it’s not legit.

I have never seen a player head to the lockerroom so many times during a game.

He has a ring but he also went from a max contract guy seen as a franchise cornerstone to being an overpaid stiff likely to be sent to someplace like Detroit.

This is why him taking that short term deal like LeBron and giving up the Supermax money by forcing a trade was a really stupid idea.

Should the Lakers explore trading Anthony Davis? @stephenasmith thinks so

LOL.

He’ll probably bitch to RP about this despite RP likely be the one who pushed this story.

And that's too confusing for him to understand.

Has the perception of him as a player grown as a result of being in L.A.? There’s a debate to be had whether he had stayed in New Orleans and he had gotten them to a Conference Finals or he had built that team into something, that he would be far more celebrated and appreciated than he is right now.”

I think the same conversation can be had about any mid level or higher player who ended up on LeBron’s team.

I swear the only guy in history to end up better off, perception-wise, is Kyrie.

Chris Bosh

His stats went down but that furthered the narrative

what’s really gonna be great is the raft of “very serious blogging” to come in the off-season about how X team shouldn’t trade it’s bench players for davis
