What players would you take over AD?
Posted on 11/25/18 at 3:51 am

Lebron, Durant, Curry, Harden, Greek Freek, Kawhi Leonard, Jayson Tatum, Joel Embiid, Luka Donic, Damian Lillard, Jrue Holiday
No AD, you are not the best player in the league. You are pretty far from it

He’s not even close to being the best player in the league.

Solomon
But for reelz give me Jrue. My favourite Pelican of all time and top 3 Hornet of all time

Give me the Greek all day to build around

There are surely some "wishy washy" fans in here. Those same fans bashing him will be crying if he wants out and demand a trade.
AD is averaging 27 points, 12, rebounds, and 5 assists. Our problem is outside of Jrue and AD, no one else can play defense effectively and our bench is pretty terrible. This team really isn't built well around AD for it to be a factor in the Western Conference and win consistently.

Son, you are a terrible poster on at least 3 boards. Are you Lester Earl? Be honest

I'm starting to think our biggest problem is AD's reluctance to play if anything is wrong. He gets grazed in the face and acts like he was punched by Tyson. He falls to the ground and you would think he got sniped from the rafters

I think I'd add Zion to the list.
Not as skilled, obviously, but I love the intensity and passion that kid plays with.
I'll take that and a .450 winning percentage over AD's stoic face, lack of effort for two and a half quarters and .500 record.

Give me Barrett or Reddish over Zion. Those guys are the real ballers on the team. They can shot and jump not just one.

I see skill with those two but Zion is the leader. He has passion. He can impact the game without the ball. I'd take him all day.
Like I have said for years, this franchise will never win a title. So give me passion and effort over more guys with skill that coast for 70 percent of the season

Zion will fill up the arena and give us media attention but he’s really an extremely more athletic Draymond Green that can jump high.
I think we can ultimately win a championship but need a lot of things to break right (like the warriors).
(ALL HYPOTHETICAL BELOW)
We can compete with a trade like Niko and Solo for Porter and Morris. That would make our team deeper and more shooters. We would finally have a legit 3 which we haven’t since Mashburn. A starting lineup of Payton, Jrue, Porter, Randle, and AD with Moore, Morris, Miller, and Frank can compete with the big boys.
If AD wants to leave, we can trade him out of conference to Boston for Tatum, Brown, Rozier, and a 1st round pick. And Let’s say you never traded Niko and somehow resigned Niko and Randle. We can parlay two first rounders for a lottery pick to pair with the new players and Jrue. A starting lineup of Rozier, Jrue, Tatum, Niko, and Randle with 1st rounder, Moore, and a big is still a viable playoff/rebuilding team. Again, perfect scenario but doesn’t mean it’s going to happen.

Although he’s missed games, as far as the ones he’s played in he’s playing too many minutes per game. Leads league, shite roster really overall, go to that big market son. Get those endorsement dollars, can really make him choose like KD or LeBron once he’s knocking down a fortune off the court.
Posted on 11/25/18 at 11:56 am to kysportsman
I can think of multiple games this year where this “shite roster” played their asses off and lost because AD played terrible
Posted on 11/25/18 at 11:56 am to kysportsman
I love AD and he’s a top BIG in the nba but this day and age you need to be able to be more than a point scorer and rebounder to be great. You have to be able to beat people off the dribble and also facilitate to make your teammates better. He’s not that. I wouldn’t even consider him top 6
Posted on 11/25/18 at 12:27 pm to J_Hingle
If his demeanor is this obvious to us, imagine how his teammates feel. Especially after all his stupid comments. The only one that looks bad in all this is AD. I’ve always had the opinion that he is not a leader, first banana type. He’s 1b to a 1a. He acts like he wants it, but it’s just not him. That game against the knicks where AD came back after a sniper hit him, he wasn’t rolling hard or doing anything, leaving Jrue to try and score. Was terrible to watch. Trade him, get some dudes that have that fire. Crewz is right. I’d rather watch a team/player fight than have all this skill and not give a frick.

I want to see fight from my favorite team’s best player. Especially after his one foot out the door comments. Why do we suck?
I love Jrue. I love E’Twaun. I love Randle. I love niko. I love the pels. AD is disrespecting this team with his comments and play. 40 points? Who cares. Win.

To imply A guy who plays at his level of excellence doesn’t play hard is laughable and a clear indicator of an insecure fan base convincing themselves they are better off without him.
Maybe he can be a fake frick like Chris Paul and tell the world how special the city of New Orleans is as he’s demanding a trade and this fan base will love him again.

Curry, Greek, Durant (even though he’s a bitch)
Lebron if he were 5 years younger, obviously.

Wow this fan base sucks
And no, the opposite of this crap is not "Everything is sunshine and rainbows" or whatever strawman bullcrap you want to throw around.
