    I really, really dont want AD to the lakers. I will be so annoyed if NO trades him to LA. Anywhere else ok, may not like it but whatever. I hope they sit him the rest of the year and that they find some good deal this summer, just dont take the Lakers mediocre players for AD...

    Im afraid LA will be willing offer whatever it takes, but NO should take advantage of the leverage they have in moving him to LA.

    LA Times claims the Lakers offered the Pels 5 different options, along with the threat that if a deal isn't made by the deadline, they are dropping out of the bidding.

    The image of Magic and LeBron threatening to hold their breath until they turn Laker Purple and have streams of Laker Yellow running down their legs kinda tickles me. :biglaugh:

    If any team should tank right now it should be the pelicans. They should sit AD and not trade for anyone who might help the team win. Trade everyone else but AD until after the lottery.

    Unless they offer LBJ they literally have nothing on that roster that should be too interesting for NO. There have to be better packages somewhere else.

    I agree, however, many teams including ours wouldn't want to include their big star?
    Maybe OKC would include Westbrook? lol
    Maybe Philly sends Simmons back to N Orleans?
    I wouldn't trade Dame for him, I mean were talking about a guy thats injury prone and hasn't done a whole lot in his tenure.
    I kind of think the Pels would be interested in Ball, and Kusma and Hart with picks.

    See I don't get that... Ball Kusma Hart and what will be bad draft picks from the lakers if they have AD and LBJ. I know Rich Paul and the Lakers / Lebron have tried to burn as many bridges as possible here to force their hand to get him to LA now rather than in a couple years when Lebrons older, but it seems like someone gotta be willing to try it... I will find it so irritating if they ship him to LA before the trade deadline...

    Most NBA owners should be against LA landing AD. When players under contract can force a trade to one specific team it’s bad for 80% of the owners and fans. I would think one would step up and take a gamble.

    Or just whine to Adam Silver after it happens for him to veto it.

    Nope, this summer several parts of that trade will be free agents so it doesn't work then either.

    I don't even think the great Danny Ainge can turn this around for the Celtics.

    Papa Davis has spoken.

    Portland was very nice to Isaiah (JR Rider) so maybe Papa Davis would approve of Portland. :cheers:
