Anthony Davis suffers sprained thumb injury vs. Nets

[Doranku]

Aaaaaand there goes the excitement for opening night. Gonna get slaughtered by the Clippers without AD. Not the kind of start we needed to our season. Hopefully he isn't out long.

Paul George isn't playing and Lebron has owned Kawhi his entire career.

Lakers will miss the playoffs again if AD can't play 70 games

Really? That would make them a 7-8 seed with him playing all 82.

Clippers won't have Paul George either in this opening game so now it's fair. Lechoke vs Kaquit.

LA is the only contender, right now, who are an injury away from disaster.

Season hasn't started yet. Obviously. Lebron's age and attrition are more important than ever though.

The Glass Brow has already arrived to Lakerland

[insidehoops]

Crazy to think that without AD in the lineup the Lakers are a worse team then last year

True

The Lakers are old, they aren't going to be a juggernaut regular season team. They will be ideally a 5-6 seed (I expect the 5-8 seed to be VERY close for overall team records), and be FULLY HEALTHY for the playoffs.

Health > seeding for sure at this point.

Have you forgot about LeBron's greatness. He carried that garbage 2018 Cavs team to the Final s

Have you forgot about LeBron's greatness. He carried that garbage 2018 Cavs team to the Finals.

And if they make the 2020 playoffs, that will be 2 years ago. And roughly 8k more minutes on LeBron's wear and tear.

That's like saying remember when that car drove good when it only had 50k miles? Gee, I wonder why it might not drive as well with 150k..... sh(t wears out.

And in NBA terms 2 years after your 30s is a lot of mileage, moreso if you are the main star for your team.
