Uhhhhhhhh, because of the 50-ish games he did play.

He missed 38% of the season and you still have him top 5. lmaoo.

NBA doesn't even hand out All-NBA Teams or MVP to guys who miss over 17 games yet you call someone who missed over 30 games top 5.

And I have no doubt that you had no idea that he missed so many games last season. You just talked out of your ass like you usually do and got exposed.

Dodging the question as usual. How are you going to say Wemby was better than AD when Wemby only played 46 games?

What? They both played a similar amount of games so it's a valid comparison.

But keep telling us AD was top 5 last year while missing over 30 games.

AD was definitely better last year in terms of his production and impact just looking at what he did for the Lakers. Wouldn't really count the Mavs part of it because they forced him out there when he should've sat the season out. His impact in LA was insane he was definitely top 5 prior to the trade, but that's just half the season I guess (41 games prior to him getting injured early in the Philly game). Wemby last year took a lot of bad shots and had stupid turnovers trying to play on the perimeter on a bad team so yeah AD was better at the time.

The way Wemby's playing now though he's arguably the best player in the league and it looks like Davis can't keep himself healthy anymore so he's out of the conversation.

Anymore? When was he ever healthy?

Lakers went 5-1 without AD when he was here last season. I'm counting the Warriors game where he only played 7 minutes and 0 points.

Doesn't sound like "top 5" impact.

So glad he is gone. Was tired of waiting for him to surpass LeBron as a player. LeBron was 38 at one point and still outperforming him.

It was embarrassing.

The wild thing is the Lakers went 4-0 right after AD got traded and Luka had not played a game for the Lakers yet.

He was healthy in 2023-24 (76 games) and played some of his best ball and looked great last year until he got injured mid-season.

Lakers went 9-1 without AD last year.

That's a very small sample size. His on/off splits were great at the time of the trade. Lakers struggled without him on the court, even with Lebron running the 2nd unit. In fact Lebron ended with a -5.2 Net Rating on the season.

9-1 without Always Doubtful

LeBron the night he got traded. Probably happy he didn't have to deal with his injury prone ass anymore.

Lakers were 2 - 1 without Lebron prior to the AD trade with wins against Portland and Sacramento. The games AD missed early on in the season were @MEM (L) followed by wins vs Brooklyn, Portland, @WAS and @NYK, so they were 4 - 1 without AD with wins coming against mostly bad teams. I don't get the argument you're trying to make here, probably just chatting shit so you'd get attention from a stranger online I guess.

Nice job ignoring the games right after AD got traded. Lakers without AD and Luka went 4-0 before Luka even played.

Yet, AD who missed 30+ games and didn't have superstar impact was somehow top 5 last year. lol

[Full Court]

Dudley getting ragdolled all over this thread yet again.

AD was clearly better than Wemby, and was top 5, despite missing 30 games. He was that good.

Funny how 1987_Ragdolled claims to be a Lakers fan, yet I know a ton more about the Lakers than he does.

The funny thing is, nobody has said he was top 5 except you. Nobody is dumb enough to back you up, not even the AD Stan who hates LeBron, Imkobe.

Lebron couldn't win a ring with a top 5 player as help. That truth really hurts you, doesn't it? And don't even try to act like the Mickey Mouse bubble counted for anything.
