    The team should have been better. This same depth mentality that they all of a sudden have should have been applied last year. But nah they cut corners and decided to have a bench full of unreliable players picking up a list of scrubs in the disastrous offseason

    Imagine if they valued depth like they are right now and applied it to last season. I guess it took a sacrificial year to realize you don’t cut corners and try to make guys like mcw fit smdh. It’s embarrassing they went after him first

    Naw man. CP3 is playing great, but that is because he has SGA, Dennis and motion offense to take the load off. No way in MDA's current ISO heavy system would his body hold up. Even at CP3's current fitness level, he wouldn't be able to do it. He would be injured because MDA would run his ass into the ground.

    That doesn't have anything to do with Paul's individual play. It didn't stop James from being great. He should have been in shape last year the way he is this year. Stop making excuses for him.

    Of course it does. Washed up life apparently is still one of the elite players when you have depth. Funny how the rockets actually load manage this year too. Ironic

    It was difficult for him to get in shape last year, but that didn't stop him from trying (switching trainers, looking into his diet, etc). The biggest change he made from this season to last (he actually had started last February) was removing all meat from his diet. That in my opinion has made the biggest difference in his ability to stay on the court. And like DreamShook said, one can't discount the fact the Thunder offense is much more manageable than Houston's for an injury prone, aging player like Chris. I'm not sure why that's Chris' fault.

    Gosh, will AD be able to hold up? I feel this year's playoffs are going to be a really riot, and the Lakers are in trouble if he can't take a banging down low.
