I remember when they were saying AD might be the greatest PF ahead of Tim Duncan after all is said and done. The sheer disrespect.

[@Lefthandrightband]

Well when ad came in the league he was a complete monster getting 2-3 blocks and 1-2 steals a game and 10 boards on top of 20-25 points the guy was a complete and utter freak. He most likely was goina be a better player then Tim Duncan without the championships because obviously Tim had better players

[@bradyparker4001]

@@Lefthandrightband I hear your point but as it stands right now..Tim Duncan is head and shoulders a better player than AD

[@RandomCitizen014]

There’s nothing AD can do to surpass Duncan. In terms of sheer talent they are really neck & neck but talent isn’t everything & AD isn’t durable, doesn’t have intangibles & hasn’t proven he can be the best player on a championship team.

Davis isn't even better than Giannis nevermind Duncan.

I feel like the Anthony Davis and Ben Simmons types in the NBA love when they’re hurt and can’t play. Being able to put on some $5,000 outfit, be photographed and just go watch the game and be seen like a celebrity is really right up their alley. That’s what they live for. Playing basketball is just a means to an end, which is being a rich celebrity, for a lot of these guys.

[@edwardnigma9037]

Exactly.

To be fair AD suited up in last years playoffs when he was clearly injured. Not saying AD doesn't have his questions but he is no where near ben simmons level.

[@jjcarver80]

How is Kyrie the most disappointing player when his circumstances was dictated from an off the court situation? These other players actually played and played like complete trash, and they're considered top 75 of all time; keep in mind, Kyrie is not listed. When he's been able t play, he's played better than AD. These conversations should be strictly basketball. Nobody cares about how you feel about the player's personal choices off the court.

Ben Simmons, scared to play in Philly on march 10th (would’ve been a really good game and see how they match up). Deandre Jordan and Blake Griffin aren’t even in rotation on their teams. Kristaps Porzingis, why hasn’t he played for the Wiz yet? 7’2, athletic, can shoot. He should be a dawg in the league… Russ is arguable.

No lets talk about something negative who is the most disappointing NBA player????

Anthony Davis is disappointing only because he can’t stay healthy. Kyrie made a personal decision not to get the jab and is only disappointing to those that don’t wanna respect that. Anybody that has any shred of understanding on the game of basketball that isn’t a Russell Westbrook fan boy and apologist, most likely knew that he wouldn’t work long term in LA with LeBron. I’m going with Zion as the most disappointing player this year. Not just because he hasn’t been healthy, but because of how he’s handled himself being disconnected and disengaged from the team and obviously his seeming inability to keep his weight down.
