A healthy and engaged AD is a monster. It's just so rare when he shows up.bajanguy008 wrote: ↑Sat Dec 03, 2022 4:03 amYes last night was a quality win for them which is annoying
I can see that argument. But to me it's just so, so much more likely that they'll blow it. Lebron has a ton of mileage and is finally starting to slow down. He can't carry a team through the playoffs any more. And AD is literally injuring his back and legs on ordinary jumps and landings every few weeks. Plus the rest of their roster is such puuduu bantha fodder. In the playoffs they play every other night, and I can't see them staying healthy and being able to put up enough wins to beat anybody. They could maybe beat a team like Minnesota or maybe Dallas, but I doubt they'll have a high enough seed to face them.Split T wrote: ↑Sat Dec 03, 2022 10:28 amI actually think the Lakers could do some damage. AD has been incredible this year. LeBron is more like Jimmy Butler level now, but he’s still very good when he plays. Add some role players and they may actually have something. West is wide open.
Even Westbrook has been decent for them off the bench. But if they can make the trade for say Hield/Turner…I think they can make some noise…assuming they stay healthy.
Schroeder/Hield/LBJ/AD/Turner is a pretty legit. Bench isn’t special, but if they stay healthy, they aren’t a pushover.
Ya I agree it’s more likely they can’t stay healthy, but if they somehow get Schroeder/Hield/LBJ/AD/Turner all healthy in a playoff series, I wouldn’t want to face them. It is pretty unlikely thoughMori Chu wrote: ↑Sat Dec 03, 2022 12:43 pmI can see that argument. But to me it's just so, so much more likely that they'll blow it.
