Anthony Davis requests trade

Per Woj.

[Pelicans78]

I wouldn’t let Demps make trade. He will screw it. Wait till the offseason once a new GM and coach are hired.

Calling it now, he wants to go to GS.

I bet they trade him East though.

Who will give up anything of significance for a potential 1-year rental? Lakers would "take a chance" that he would re-sign with us. It's a big gamble on Maginka's part tbh.

I think the Celtics would, although they'd have to wait until the summer. However, not only can they offer the best deal, but at the same time giving up some assets wouldn't hurt them too much either as their team barely works.

Laker fans seemed to think Ingram was massively disappointing until this AD talk started heating up. He is statistically a pretty below average player and Ball is no better. Their trash prospects haven't taken them anywhere but the lottery since LeBron's injury. You do remember Leonard telling the Spurs trade me to LA right after he sat out an entire season right? And that wasn't enough to get a deal done even before we could condition on Ingram still being a scrub three years in. I also never said Leonard couldn't be traded without getting Tatum. I said the Spurs shouldn't have.

[baseline bum]

I would love someone to explain to me why the Pelicans should be falling all over themselves to trade their first ball hall of famer in his prime who is under contract for at least 1.5 more years for a couple of lottery busts and more assorted trash from the Lakers grab bag of crap.

Kuzma has been fine ...

TBH i dont even know if a trade will get done.
Signs seem to point that way but maybe like Spurs, Nola will say anywhere but L.A.

I just enjoy the butthurt on just a potential trade ...
if one does happen I will enjoy the ish even more ....

I lurked but signed up right after Pau trade ... if history repeats itself the butthurt will be immense.

Its like the KL talks all over again ...relax. Maybe he wont come.

IF we are being honest despite whatever faults Kyrie has ainge was the one that got a star for pennies on the dollar they have basically Sexton to show for trading Kyrie who may be overrated but is a star and proven clutch shot maker.
YOu can argue Spurs got bent over a bit in KL deal but they got a playmaker in DDR
and my guess is ainge will do hios damn best not to inlude tatum and outside of MAYBE jaylen Broen its really only picks that celts have outsiode for Tatum that is worth anything ...

You are bnnever gonna get fair value for a superstar.

The Spurs said anywhere but LA because the Lakers could only offer garbage. If Kawhi would have demanded the trade in summer 2017 before the draft maybe the Spurs would have done it to get the #2 pick, but instead he wanted to hold out for a year and then ask when LA had nothing good to trade. I know Laker fans think they're entitled to other teams' stars and they don't get the trades they want because the rest of the league is butthurt, but maybe you should consider that your prospects are massively overrated by the media and haven't done anything to impress other teams' GMs. Ingram is three years in now and still hasn't shown anything.

BS
they chose to send him as far from LA as possible. and if we are beilevuing conjecture they asked for everything except Lonzo.
Ingram has been a mild sdisappointment but has shown flashes.
Just last week reports were Gm's were inquiring about him so apparently there are GM's that have interest.

Maybe rthey think liek Druss he will blossom elsewhere. Whatever. you arent a GM and neither am I ...
But you sure seemed to be bothered by this conjecture.
It will be okay

You guys were so convinced you had all the leverage last year with Kawhi. But your trading pieces sucked then and they're even worse now that you can condition on neither Ingram nor Ball improving this season. New Orleans also has 1.5 years until they could lose Davis for nothing. It's not like he is holding out like Kawhi did, so they're not in a rush. At the very least it would make sense to wait until the summer to get Boston involved.

[Laker_1995]

No point of getting excited. After seeing what happen with PG And KL I don’t get my hopes up for shit lol. But The NBA season is more exciting now than the playoffs that’s for sure.

Maybe why Lakers started zubac the past week to up his value dude dropped 20 16 with 4 blocks moved his feet well on booker when they trapped or in PNR last night ...but it was PHx but he has been playing well for weeks. Like poor man's MArc Gasol tbh.

again maybe history repeats itself.
Smells like teh Lakers/Memphis trade


another factor bum is not considering is agent relationships.
Just like Lakers let randle walk for nada sometimes, relationships with agents are big on why deals happen.

Cubes has been teh most honest owner on this.
But if you read between the lines on how Magic/rob praised Rich Paul and Mav Carter ... you can see Lakers are playing the same game.

I actually would like to see LeBron ring again in LA since the Spurs contention window is dead and I have been a big James fan since he was in high school. James and Davis together would be a lot of fun to watch. But just because I think it would be a cool pairing doesn't mean I'd throw out the window the fact their young players suck and probably wouldn't interest the Pelicans when they could get better offers elsewhere.

[superbigtime]

so tired of pussy primadona athletes dictating to the owners where they want to play. vast majority of these players have no pride and certainly no loyalty. AD is another cunt like Kawhi, Durant, LeBron and the rest of them. what a bitch.

rich paul already said they wavin that trade kicker if he’s dealt to los angeles.


ya think danny ainge is gonna convince AD to play in boston with marcus smart, MAGA howard and aaron baynes?:lol

I do think teams will take the chance that LA isn't as appealing a destination with 36 year old LeBron as it currently is with 34 year old LeBron, so will make New Orleans better offers than the Lakers can.

You laker fans sure are a delusional bunch. First PG, then Kawhi, and now AD? :lmao

all things considered not a horrible trade.
But you also gave up green and did not get any of their best young assets back.

As bum and I were arguing you had to get back teh other team's best young player not just a pseudo 2nd team all nba player.
DDR will be lucky to sniff that this year so in actuality you did not even get a third team all NBA player. he made second last year, for the Raptors.

there is some talk he wont even make all-star team, but one of him and LMA has to make it (imho) unless Doncic steals his spot ...

all stars locks:

Bron, steph, giannis, PG, Davis, KL, Kyrie, Kemba, KD, harden, Embiid, Jokic, dame

Probables: KAT and Russ

bubbles: Aldridge, DRR, Tobias Harris, Jamal Murray, Beal, Middleton, Druss, Booker, Doncic, Blake, Galinari

Lakers have no leverage son. In fact, given the recent turn of events (George signing with OKC, Kawhi being traded elsewhere and supposedly preferring the Clippers over the Lakers) they might be pretty damn desperate.

If I'm the Pels I'm asking for any semi-promising young Laker player (Kuzma, Hart, Zubac, Ingram, maybe even Ball) and multiple draft picks.

Magic not down with it? Then well, good luck selling Lebron the idea of wasting one and a half more years of the last breath of his career to get Davis.

not about ethics. you just make it harder for your team to execute a trade, potentially keeping you locked there longer than you want to be.

now that teams know that the pressure to trade him is absolute, they dont have to give the same quality of offers they otherwise would have, and the pels are less likely to pull a quick trigger. will likely wait until the summer or even next year's deadline. but had he just told them privately, and pels took the initiative to make calls, i think a trade would happen much more quickly

I don't think it makes much of a difference myself. If the Pelicans are making Davis available then everyone knows he told them he wasn't going to sign the extension. The fact that Davis just says he wants to go to a contender probably shouldn't depress his value as much as Kawhi sitting out a season and saying LA or bust.

I've got no problem with the Brick. He was a hardworking heterosexual male who wasn't going to fit in the Magic and the FlamerTime Lakers. Neither was he going to get any real calls when up against Denise Rodman in the rigged Seattle - Bulls Finals series.
Point being, Thompson, while descending was exactly what the Lakers needed at the time. Michael Cooper was out and injured. Trading to in interconference team like that was shameful. Thompson needed to merely be a 6th man.

If the NBA Entertainment industry wants AD on the Lakers, he will be on them.

Pelicans would be stupid to take the Lakers trash package of Lonzo, Kuzma, 1st rounder. They will get better offers for Davis and always trade a player that good East, show your franchise and competitive spirit respect.

Bulls need to get to work and see if they can get him, they have the pieces to do it.

The one and only one way I could see the Lakers pulling off this deal is if they take Holiday's contract in addition to giving up their young crap, but the only way they could make that deal would require KCP to sign off on it since it would cause him to lose his Early Bird status. If New Orleans wants to slash salary and somehow likes Ingram/Ball/Kuzma that's the one way the Lakers could actually pull off the deal. Pelinka would have to completely gut the team, but who in his right mind wouldn't to get Davis? Then go sign Melo. :lol

[Pelicans78]

Pels need to sit AD until he is traded. No upside by playing him. Don’t need to rush a deal either. Definitely wouldn’t let Demps make a deal. He should be be fired after the season with Gentry. Or fire them now. Trade Randle and Miroshit before the deadline.

Probably would make sense to shut him down and tank if they can't make a big move at the deadline to make him want to stay. Then see if you can squeeze anything out of Boston before the draft. Ainge has to see how much of a retard he was not making a play for Leonard last summer, so hopefully you guys get some kind of combination of Tatum and picks from that faggot.

[DPG21920]

While it’s possible that LA gets AD due to the tampering (no joke, it was obvious Klutch was planting the seeds of discord and destabilization) they really lack the assets compared to most teams.

For perspective, none of the Lakers young core (Kuz, Ingram, Ball or Hart) even have a league average PER?? I mean, that is crazy. They have 2-3 years worth of tape and have not leaped anywhere close to all-star, some have injury concerns (Lonzo’s leg) and beyond that I’m sure NO isn’t happy about LA doing this.

Even if AD is willing to drag his name through the mud like Kawhi (Kawhi was pretty much a villain in most people’s eyes) it’s AD. Some team would probably take a swing even if they didn’t know if AD would sign. Worst case, you can recoup assets you give up by flipping AD to another team. He’s the prime asset here.

But it’s crazy how the Lakers can be one of the most inept franchises for the past 5-6 years in all phases (draft, development and free agency) and still have people like Bron going to them. AD has said he wants to go to a competent franchise that has a good track record and can set him up to win and LA is at the bottom of the list if that is the true requirements.

Beyond that, how does LA after spurning (stupidly) PG and Kawhi still get FA that want to play there :lol? It’s amazing.

This type of stuff hurts the Lakers when they are already on thin ice. Lonzo last time a trade came up announced a surgery. Now? He’s telling NO that if you want to trade for me, I will pull an AD and won’t stay. LA has zero margin for error here and Lonzo throwing a wrench and having to add another team decreases the likelihood it does not happen

if you want PER which is a very outdated metric. zu has a PER of 21.4 :lol

[DPG21920]

Im not saying PER is the end all be all or anything; it is just one thing that highlights how mediocre these guys have been. Forget expectations and just evaluate how they have been; there are numerous metrics that paint them to average to slightly below average players.

[Pelicans78]

Not only are their PERs underwhelming, but their win shares/48 are pretty bad too compared to what Boston could offer. Pels can get those Laker prospects anytime.

[Joseph Kony]

ima laugh when the Pels say fuck LA and trade his ass to Toronto or something :lmao fuck these divas trying to force their way out. overrated clown can barely stay on the court

[apalisoc_9]

Kawhi effect? Stars requesting trades left and right :wow

you’re gonna get lonzo and lavar. and you’ll like it:lol

No this the Lebron effect from the Decision. It created all of this.

Dlo was also below average. kid is probably gonna be an all star this year.

The one trait that he has that Ingram/Lonzo don’t? He could always shoot.

[apalisoc_9]

Yo lebron didnt sabtoage their trade values to force a trade. Kawhi did and so did butler and now davis. :lol

This is a completely different animal

[Spurs da champs]

Demps wants to bend the knee & send the franchise player to the Lakers again, huh? Sucks that Stern & the league cant save the Pelicans from this clown this time around.

[Mikeanaro]

whaaaat?!
you dear besmirch MVpau?!
Amb and Cripple nation will tell you he carried the Lakers to backtoback titles "by himself"
Nope, they can say all they want.
That wuss was there with Fisher, Odom, Artest, an effective Ariza.
His lack of balls and the way he was missing layups was embarrassing, Kobe had bricks but he shot from everywhere not just from 3 feet from the rim.

Also all that about the MVPau, but where was he in 2011-2012? at 31 years he was avg 17 ppg, thats lame.
Kobe was the soul, Pau the foul smell.

Per Wiki, Lakers 2013 season
Kupchak told Lakers season-ticket holders the team needed Gasol to be more involved, and the Lakers needed to play better defense. He did not believe that the team, whose roster's average age was 28.5, was too old to win a championship.

That bastard was avg 13.7 points...

[Kyle_Kuzma]

damn, now klay is interested in joining the lakers if AD joins the squad

:lol

[R. DeMurre]

I think the team that can offer the best package is Toronto.

Something like Siakam/Valanciunas/Van Fleet for Davis/Elfrid Payton works on ESPN's trade machine.
Toronto's already swinging for the fences with Kawhi on the last year of his deal, so why not go all in and get Davis too?
For New Orleans, adding those three to Holiday and Mirotic makes them a better team than anything the Lakers can offer.

[Ghazi]

I don't think PER is "outdated", it just sometimes paints an inaccurate story.

I think it IS notable though that none of the young core has a PER above 15, you can't ignore that... it makes it unlikely any of them will ever evolve into a superstar.

[KobeScored81]

No point of getting excited. After seeing what happen with PG And KL I don’t get my hopes up for shit lol. But The NBA season is more exciting now than the playoffs that’s for sure.

This is a different situation than those. I think with PG and KL, we could’ve acquired them but front office wasn’t willing to give up enough, due to believing too much in the young guys. Right now I’m sure Magic is willing to give NO everyone but it just might not be enough at this point. If we miss out on Davis, and a max free agent this summer, then it’s our own fault.

[KobeScored81]

But it’s crazy how the Lakers can be one of the most inept franchises for the past 5-6 years in all phases (draft, development and free agency) and still have people like Bron going to them.

That’s because the Lakers run this league. Always have and always will. We will always be the marquee brand of the NBA and the Spurs will always be below us, far below us.

[ambchang]

The main reason the NBA is no longer a good, or even average product.

The salaries are now so huge that players a willing to give up tens of millions just so that they can play with their friends.

Eventually, small market teams will lose fan interest and become farm teams for big market teams, while the big market teams have no incentives to become a professionally operated billion dollar company.

Yep like San Antonio. But who cares its a boring ass irrelevant city anyways. Irrelevant city and team. Even when the Spurrs are good no one gives a fuck. And the bitches in San Antonio look terrible

[UZER]

AD is overrated. He’s a really good player, but this dude is as soft as they come when it comes to little boo boos.

He definitely needs someone like Lebrun to be the alpha.

[smaka]

AD is empty stats player, period. Has like 1 playoff win in his entire career, lmao. And don't say his teams were that bad, because they weren't. Empty stats player plagued by different strange injuries.

[Kyle_Kuzma]

aight you bros are getting all worked up for no reason but here’s some facts:lol

-ad signed with lebron’s agency
-declined a legit supermax offer (called it on the other thread)


y’all know what’s next?

rich paul with leaks that AD will only sign with the lakers

:lol

Clipper Nation tell me how lebron moved to la to take it easy and retire :lol

[Killakobe81]

Cant believe some Laker fans worrying about depth

just keep one of zubac, Ingram Kuzma Lonzo ...

Let them have any 3 plus KCP , wagner and a unprotected first.
they want something else flip Ball/Ingram/Kuzma for a pick or player ..and get the deal done now.

again I still prefer A healthy KL but IDK ...KL has lost something ...
Doncic was cooking and KL never switched over to him.
The spur version of KL locks Doncic down.

IF Kawhi isnt healthy and KD is staying there is no other star despite his nagging injuries worth ttrading 4 or 5 to 1 for ...

get it done, Maginka.

[DPG21920]

The pressure is immense now on LA. They whiffed publicly on 2 stars to pair with Bron and everyone sees their faith in the youth was misplaced at best and negligent at worst.

Now you have one of the last true stars available and again asking for LA to get it done. If they miss on AD despite Klutch/Bron having the inside track it may very well signal one of the most embarrassing times in LA history.

Not to mention there are no seemingly realistic stars left. PG is out. Kawhi seems out too. If you don’t get AD which stars are even available to pair with Bron? KD seems unlikely but possible. Greek Freak seems content as does Harden.

Everyone left is B level at best.

[RsxPiimp]

I can’t see this happening at the deadline tbh.

[LkrFan]

there is pressure i dont dismiss that.
But as you just said yesterday the fact remains, that stars STILL wanna come here.
IS more improtant than anything else.

And they did not "whiff" on Kawhi stop making up shit, Deeps.
They gambled and whiffed on PG13.
We wont know about Kawhi until this off season.

they still got bron who is easily worth more than any of those guys.
So you can paint it as "dire" but when the best pplayer in teh NBA and potential next wanna play for your team ... that is not "dire".

There is a sense of urgency for sure ... but Deeps keeps painting tehse dire pictures but yet AD wants to come here ...
