I really hope this house of cards game blows up in Lebron’s face.
If the Lakers/Pelicans trade goes through wouldn't it leave the Lakers roster pretty gutted. They already are 2 games out of the playoffs and AD and James is a good duo but you still need a complete team to win a chip. Ingram, Ball, Kuzma on pretty low contracts so if a deal happens it will likely be a 3 team trade. Just saying AD/Bron is good but not if the roster is gutted I know they will sign some scrubs if a deal goes down.
I hope NO gets a better offer for AD and takes it.
LA is in the spot they are in now because the guys they are offering aren’t good. You can find replacement level players for all of them currently yet add AD. Come on people
Yep you get AD and Lebron, and LA is an attractive place to go play again. Lebron already moved the needle for them, AD would be huge. You swing for the fences when that kind of talent is out there, that's why Celtics, LA and 76's have egg on their faces for trying to low ball the spurs for Kawhi. Toronto now has the best chance in their history to make the finals because they were willing to take that chance.
Potential talent doesn’t win championships, proven talent does.
Corey Brewer?
It doesn't matter. Those scrubs aren't taking LBJ past the Dubs and I'm sure he knows this is building for next season. If you can get AD and lebron you don't pass it up Imo especially since none of the Lakers assets have anywhere close to superstar potential
Clan the Spurs Fan says Spurs interested in Thon Maker
Lakers new trade offer. Ball, Kuzma, Ingram, Rondo, Lance, Beasley and two 1st round picks. Holy Lakers would be fools to actually do this.
I have a feeling NO is going to cave and give AD to the Lakers for their trash.
Yup. Same here.
Lonzo has excluded the Lakers from his bio on twitter
The Celtics will probably take Tatum off the table once Kyrie decides to bolt so waiting for the summer to trade AD might not be the best move. Take the best package by the trade deadline and be done with it, this news is just hovering over your franchise and it's nothing but disrespect towards it.
He doesn't want to be on your team anymore, I like what the Knicks did by shipping Kristaps to Dallas fast with no drama.
I just don't know why the Spurs haven't made an offer for Davis yet, they really should.
Lakers offer isn't the best but sometimes you have to take less for a star (Kawhi deal).
I'm sure the Spurs have made an offer. I'm sure every single team in the league has. Just because it hasn't been posted on Twitter doesn't mean teams aren't having discussions tbh
Lol so you mean NO is going to get all these guys? Pels have that much roster space? LMAO
Call me crazy, but I think the lakers are kinda crazy giving up all 3 of Ingram, kuzma, and ball. Whenever AD gets hurt like he usually does the lakers will be screwed
Yeah I would sure hope the Spurs made an offer for AD. I bet DeMar and LMA weren't included though, Pels quickly hung the phone up. Just speculation. I know why Irving wasn't traded to Spurs though it's because LeBron knew he was going to be a Lakers player.
They are gutting their roster for Davis, they are definitely going to lose a few games after the trade. Magic is thinking long term most likely. If the trade happens like the media is reporting.
None of those players are worth a , and the picks will be garbage if Davis teams up with LeBron. NO would be stupid to do it.
Oh, so you mean keeping AD around could turn them from a lottery team to a.........lottery team? I mean, come on. This is your franchise and some hurt feelings and a “dark cloud” are concerns X, Y, Z. Concerns A, B, C are getting the best deal which can’t be had right now.
Trading a pile of trash for a top three most valuable player in the NBA? That'd be a steal for the Lakers.
Honestly? With what LA is offering, I'd take Jaylen Brown and salary filler, plus one of Boston's two GOOD picks. That would be a good deal for Boston, and net more return than LA's dumpster fire sandwich package.
If I were the Pelicans, I would use the Rockets' trade offer of 4 1st round picks to get Butler, a player half as good as Davis. Any team wanting AD should start with that: 4 first round picks.
Tatum, Brown and a couple good picks is an offer that blows the Lakers offer out of the water. And if I'm the Celtics, I do it in a second.
The only reason AD's camp is saying Celtics didn't make "the list" is because they want the Pelicans to trade AD before the deadline and he literally can't be traded to the Celtics until the summer. Come summertime, if AD is still on the Pelicans, the Celtics will suddenly be an approved team.
They won’t offer both of those guys.
Note: I meant to add especially if Kyrie leaves.
