RJ：離開泡泡時的AD還是聯盟前五，但他現在已經被字母哥、阿肥、鉛筆超過

Anthony Davis was considered a Top 5 player in the NBA, especially at his peak i
n the Bubble, when he helped the Los Angeles Lakers to the championship in 2020.
 With LeBron James showing no signs of declining individually, more deep playoff
 runs and perhaps even championships were expected for the duo. Still, it hasn't
 quite turned out that way for the Lakers.



Davis has always struggled with injuries during his time in the league, and the
issues have reared their head multiple times in the past two seasons. This has b
een a big problem for the Lakers, even though the owner still believes in AD. Th
ey failed to make it deep in the playoffs last season and ended up not even qual
ifying this season.



It feels like somewhat of a missed opportunity for the big man in terms of his c
areer, considering that big men have dominated the league in recent seasons. Gia
nnis Antetokounmpo is arguably the best in the world, Nikola Jokic has won 2 con
secutive MVPs, and Joel Embiid has been right up there. Considering that Davis w
as considered on par with or better than these players, Richard Jefferson spoke
on ESPN about what he needs to do to get back into the conversation.



"When he [Anthony Davis] left the bubble, it was, 'He's a top-five player, and w
e need to see how long it's gonna take for him to become the best player in the
league. Since then, Giannis [Antetokounmpo], Joel Embiid has surpassed him, [Nik
ola] Jokic has surpassed him. The Lakers have just regressed every single year.



"We know he's not this mean, overly aggressive player, but we need to see the ag
gressive version on Anthony Davis ths year because that's the Lakers. So, to me
, there is no player out there that if everyone is looking at because the last t
wo years for the Lakers and for Anthony Davis have been sad."
