They went pretty small at the end of that game, and they just ran circles around AD - and we almost have to play him. We can't really replace him late in the game. Their third string center Adem Bona played 25 minutes and was a plus-17. He frequently played out on the wing where he hit one 3-pointer.
Philly was a younger, quicker team. That's one more reason, I'm not eager for another year of AD. He's not going to get any quicker. He's slowly morphing into a better shooting Andre Drummond. That's not a bad thing really, but it's not going to get you to the promised land.
From what I saw, Drummond is probably a better 3-point shooter, which is crazy to say. He made 3 out of 4 in his last game, a win vs NY. He's still a monster on the boards, too.
