AD to miss at least a month with a foot injury. Wembanyama to the Pelicans just became a real possibility. What a fun team that would be if ever.
And this is why I am not interested in having AD and his max contract. He’s completely unreliable.
he has still played more games than Horford ÷ Rob, with much better production and basically the same salary.
So you’re saying you’d rather have AD than Horford and Rob? Well of course. Would anyone not make that trade?
I’d rather have Al and Rob over AD. I know they fit on this team and I think it’s more likely that one of those two will be available come playoff time. AD has the nickname “street clothes” for a reason. Can’t have one of you max players missing a ton of games, which is what Davis does every year.
Ok I stand corrected. I’ll put it this way - AD is a top 10-15 player, Al is 37 and Rob is made of similar material to AD. I get the glass man argument for AD, but if he’s healthy in May and June, Cs would be unbeatable.
I absolutely agree with you, but I remembered that several people earlier this year said they'd rather have Al and Rob, and I thought Goldstar was one of those people, as he confirmed here.
I think I estimated that Al and Rob would play right around 82 games this season, and I got a lot of crap for that, but sadly they appear close to on pace for that. And I know that Davis was probably only going to play in the 50's and absolute best case of 70, but he out produces those 2 alone, and then you'd still have the other roster spot for someone else. Given there is no guarantee that either, let alone both, of Al and Rob are actually going to be healthy for the playoffs, I absolutely would have traded both of them, plus some draft picks for Davis and wouldn't have given it a 2nd thought.
