    No. Seriously at least twice and I wouldn’t be surprised at all if it was more Jokic shot from “deep” and well covered by AD on a couple to beat the clock.

    Yeah he did it 3(!!!) times in that series. Going back, shot clock ending and he just throw without looking. There's even a meme with AD reaction to it

    Good game from him. I felt he missed a few bunnies inside but can't complain. 28 and 16 with 2 steals and 3 blocks.

    Stop grimacing after every entanglement.

    Good game, but jeez, so freaking weak. Gets outworked by smalls or just out of position sometimes, i don’t get it.

    AD is the last guy I'm complaining about tonight. He showed up and did work. A few others not so much.

    AD was superb. That’s what I hoped to see from him this year.

    Big game, really good activity and energy levels throughout. It was a loud performance, his imprint was all over this one. Did his part.

    He definitely came ready to play and put together a nice game. Teammates need to step up.

    Yeah, the first play after Sabonis fouled out involved AD standing in the corner and not touching the ball. Brilliant offense.

    A Coach Bum special, the inability to take advantage of mismatch situations

    I was a bit surprised to see that AD is 3rd amongst active players, in career 30pt 10 reb games.

    1. Giannis 157
    2. Lebron 145
    3. AD 133
    4. Embiid 117
    5. KD 112

    Not bad for an injury prone beta. (Allegedly).

    And when they're not doing this, it's on the coach to hammer it home in timeouts.

    Really good game from AD. Good to see he's been taking advantage of bad paint defenders (Nurkic and Sabonis). Dumb that we didn't go to him more when Sac were in foul trouble or with Sabonis out.

    been saying this for a year while people claim i'm just an AD stan. you have to design offense for bigs who aren't ballhandlers! you think philly goes full quarters without designed plays to get embiid in his best spots?!

    the torch must be passed--and not symbolically and through media statements, but through roster construction, lineup organization, and game planning.
