that's exactly what he should do. play the winnable game against the team you're fighting against for a playoff spot and sit against the team you have little chance of beating at full strength. This pathetic team just folded against OKC but the plan made sense

This is who he always been. A very inconsistent player. I don't know why people were so hyped about getting him.
I think it’s obvious the trades were done for next season. This season is a lost cause. It seems like they’re going younger. I need AD to pull a KD and request out. Bron should leave too. U know how many picks we could get?
Lol @CantStop again with the bipolar fandom.. I like you brah but you gotta stop with the back and forth
We needed to trade for players this year because the FA options are ass and we would be wasting having Russ just expire on the books. It was never gonna be expected that we win against the Bucks with a skeleton crew lineup.. Honestly I thought everyone played pretty well (besides AD) all things considered.

They're idiots. Why would you want to play him against ones of the title favorites from the other conference rather than playing him against the team you're actually battling with for a playoff spot?
He's 38yo and playing hurt. It obviously helps the team more to sit him when possible so he can actually contribute the other games. If they were Laker fans they'd be pissed off at AD and Ham while being grateful that Bron is still elite every time he's in... but they have bigger agendas going on.
What part of everything is irrelevant if AD is washed is hard to understand
That’s 40M wasted
Realistically, what should we trade AD for?
AD isn't "washed" persay.. He's just always gonna be a #2, I don't think he'll ever be a #1. Lebron is still playing like a #1 so it works for now and with the pieces they have from the trades they can make noise and beat just about any team in the West besides maybe the Clippers
"Blazers fan" who never posts about the Blazers but stays posting about the Lakers because of one dude talking about agendas
We wont know till the summer honestly. Things change so quickly you never know what star will want out this off season
AD isn’t a number 2 tho. Number 2s can hold it down when number 1s are out. Look at our record with AD and without Bron. Kyrie is a number 2. Paul George is a number 2. AD is just a guy who’s better than most players at his position. Unfortunately he’s getting paid like he’s elite and he’s not.

Picks and embrace rebuild if they get to that point. If Rudy Gobert and OG Assanouby can demand so much, AD will get something similar. A lot of contenders or those one piece away would lineup to trade for him.
