AD IS QUESTIONABLE

Anthony Davis is questionable to play at OKC with right knee soreness.

We didn't even last 10 games with healthy LBJ,AD and RW. This is crap.

Lebron's shot selection has been by far the farthest from the basket in his career, and yet he gets a contact injury during one of the few times he's been remotely near the paint. Come on basketball gods, the bubble tax has already been levied.

I bet he could play if needed but they are taking it easy against a tanking squad like OKC. Save the bullets.

With Russ balling out we are good fellas, this will be the Russ W show!

(That said if we don't have AD also, we in trouble even against OKC. The only PF we would have is Melo)

Oklahoma City is winless, team averages only 94 points, leading scorer Shai Gilgeous-Alexander at 22.5 points, second leading scorer Luguentz Dort at 10 points. I think they would be fine without Lebron and Anthony tonight.

Should we rest AD too? Lets make the most of our load management. There's only a handful of these freebie games.

Still wondering why Vogel didn’t sub in dwight for that FT rebound in the last minute of regulation. Melo failed to box out and that almost ended AD’s season and we lost the rebound and the lead.

I’d like to agree with you if we have another big like Kieff. we are left with dwight and DJ inside and melo at 4, if dwight or DJ is in foul trouble, it will not be pretty. 4 guard lineup again?

I would say with no hesitation that AD’s and LeBron’s injuries are relatively minor and they are taking it slow with the season still early, this also gives guys like Monk and Reaves the chance to up there value, no need to make this situation dramatic.

This is why we need a 6’9” guy to replace DJ, Dwight, AD, Melo or Trev.

Height along forwards is lacking such as Morris & Kuzma threats of both rebounding & 3 pt shooting!

I don’t think they should wait till buyout market to improve in this position!!!

Too many guards & not enough ammo on front line age & depth to not play centers or fill in for AD when he gets injured!!! Playing 4 guards & getting out rebounded while giving up points in paint when going small Melo & Trev aren’t gonna solve this, relying on on non rebounders & size, these young teams have been scoring at will inside the paint!

This is when a kid like D. Jones from last year would help, why they signed that kid I don’t even know his name won’t help but use up a spot, but he’s the guy that has to be cut…

They can win this one with their second unit so no need for Davis to play.

Why does it feel like this is Lebron's attempt at passing the keys to the kingdom to Russ and AD

Not complaining though, we need Russ and AD to be confident that they can lead the team, and Bron can just slide right in.

Russ - facilitate
AD - inside presence, defensive stopper
Bron - score
