Your take is surprising to me, on one front, but not on another.
1. The surprising part: AD seems like a player that doesn't fit into your ideal brand of basketball. As he has gotten older, he has gone from dynamic to fairly slow moving. And he's a big that doesn't want to play center!!
2. The not surprising part: The dislike of AD's game around here is most certainly, and greatly, impacted by the emotional baggage that many of us opinion spouters have regarding how AD got here. In that sense, undervaluing AD is baked into the Mavs fandom due to trauma. If Luka was still here, and AD was added to the team because Luka said, "get me AD (which wouldn't make sense to me, but my point still works), then the board might actually overvalue AD.
What say you?
Not very astute ^^^^
