Sup pals. AD Sucks.

[KillerLeft]

Luka is the better player clearly but as far as health concerns go, I think you guys should look a little closer at the stats. 

Comparing those 2 through all games played up through last season since their starting year, only counting regular season. 

Anthony Davis
13 seasons 
787 games played
Avg Games played per Season: 61

Luka Doncic
7 seasons
450 games played
Avg Games played per Season: 64
 

Other notes:
Last 2 seasons, Anthony Davis has played more games than Luka. 

Comparing AD's first 7 seasons vs LDs first 7 seasons only and these are ADs stats

466 games played
Avg 67 games a season

AD has 3 seasons of most played games in a season over Luka. 76, 75, 75 vs luka: 72, 70, 66. 


I think the one thing that should stand out here is that Luka is not looking to be long in the tooth and his trajectory is he will miss even more games than AD in his next 6 seasons. 

Not justifying the trade by any means, but I hear a lot of talk about how unhealthy AD is. Want to make sure people are comparing apples to apples.

There's some good stuff here, and full marks for the bravery of offering it. But...

I think the issues with this line of thinking are tied into the facts that the trade happened months after the Mavs were IN THE FINALS, and, even worse, Davis is almost exactly 6 years older than Luka. 

I definitely think AD is being undervalued by this board currently, and likely by many Mavs fans, but it's tough to blame them.
