AD can play center and it won’t matter. Going small isn’t going to magically fix their perimeter defense. AD is an elite defender, but Harden is an all time great scorer. He’s going to draw fouls like crazy on AD and things will get REALLY ugly for the Lakers.

 

It might help them score easier though.

I don't get guys like AD who say they don't want to play center in todays NBA. Like dude, you are super tall without guard like skills. You are a center in todays NBA. 

I believe it's all about legacy.. If he gets labeled a center his knows he has no chance to be the top all-time great center. where as a PF he has the talent at least to be in the Duncan KG category..

that and he is soft as F..

That ship has sailed. He’ll never be in that company. Those guys, particularly Timmy has proven to be the best player on a championship team.

AD will show up tomorrow, that’s predictable. Just don’t get that he doesn’t show the aggression night in night out.

that may be what's in our mind, doesn't mean that AD thinks it sailed!!

i think AD at PF was + 6

all the small lineups were negative iirc

Exactly, the Lakers were better with their big lineup. When they go AD at the five, Harden and Westbrook get easy lay ups at the rim because AD can't leave Tucker in the corner. And on the other end, the Rockets just pack the paint and two or three at AD when he gets post touches close to the rim. LeBron has to make quicker decisions and they have to get AD on the move. If they do that, they will be fine. Of course, will have to hit some outside shots as well.
