Imagine LA without AD.
I bet they'd miss the playoffs.

But who has stopped him?
AD is on a mission.
DPOY and MVP.

He's definitely DPOY... he's not MVP.
He's the best individual on the Lakers by far but LeBron is their MVP.
As far as MVP of the league goes? Easily Harden or Giannis.
no problem with talking up ad over lebron as the best player but i dont think he's got a decent chance at mvp. too many candidates this year

It's going to be Giannis again unless he gets injured, that's pretty much completely obvious.
Best player in the league.

Nice exaggeration.
AD is slightly better than Lebron as an individual talent at this point...but the Lakers team runs better with Lebron than it does with just AD.
They both sync with each other so much though that it doesn't matter who's "best".
It's kind of like Durant and Curry on the same team. Both clearly 1a players.

No... AD is clearly significantly better as an individual player. AD's individual and team defense is worlds better and he's a more reliable iso scorer than LeBron and it's not close.
LeBron is significantly better at getting others involved, which is not something I'm talking about when I say "as an individual."
AD is a way better individual. LeBron is a way better team player. LeBron is more valuable to the Lakers success but AD is a better player. They're both needed to have any prayer at winning anything.

LeBron is the floor raiser
AD is the ceiling raiser
LeBron has OP so shook that he's now reversing on all of his previously held beliefs. After a half a decade of being anti numbers & media awards, he now praises Ingraham & Love's stats on terrible teams, and suddenly cares about the MVP :oldlol: Shameless

Fair enough. I like that. As I said in another thread... if I don't know a roster this year, give me AD in a heartbeat. For this Lakers squad for this one year? Give me LeBron.
If the Lakers lose either, they are well and truly ****ed, however.

No worries man, we will just have to disagree with this one. I get the point you are making, it's just highly exaggerated.
