Anthony Davis traded to Lakers(page 272)

Celts pregame: Any deal for AD will have to include Tatum 

Duh.

[celticinorlando]

Reports of AD requesting a trade and AD not wanting to go to Boston and Irving looking like he might leave Boston. All three reports come out in order in short time from different sources.

Are we to believe this is just coincidence all three reports came out within hours of each other from 3 different sources?

This is so obviously a Rich Paul orchestrated effort to tamper and get Davis to LA like Paul's boss Lebron wants.

Come on people. This is so obvious.

If I were Kyrie, I would have a word with LeTurd and Paul. Serious repercussions for floating that.

Yeah I'm finding it hard to believe the Pelicans are simply fine with Zubac, Ball and Kuzma and some Lakers 1st that's likely going to be in the 20-25 range. Even some of the main media members and talk show hosts seem to think it'll take the Lakers all of Ingram, Ball, Kuzma, Future 1st, Zubac + either Hart or another pick. Plus how exactly is Lonzo supposed to shine in the Pelicans spotlight when his dad will wreak havoc there

Man...you sure like to pick fights with people. Can't even pass on info without you making a smart ass comment.

it pretty much has to

It seems that its a done deal with Davis to be a Laker .

seems like a fake fantasy but some LA times reporter to send a few of their underperforming young guys to NO

I am afraid the announcement of AD wanting a trade might have been been the last thing coming out instead of the first. Feel like the deal might have been agreed to already behind the scenes.

So AD plans on playing out the season? Are we sure we want that? lol

"Duh" is picking a fight? Don't be so sensitive. Common sense says NO would want Tatum. The same reason you want to keep him over Brown is the same reason they want him over Brown.

everyone getting testy over something that had a 10% chance in happening not happening.

Team is hot mess right now, players arent gelling, I hope someting happens with Davis soon so that the team can make moves to improve as opposed to sitting on thumbs playing the what if game

Hot mess?

We’ve won 5 of 6, and since the bad start, 20 of 29.  We’ve got a top 10 offense and a top 5 defense.

Brad Turner (LA Times) was just on Mason & Ireland.

- Was asked about the deal he tweeted out. He said NO "also interested in BI" but Lonzo, Kuz and Zu are the Laker players that intrigued NO the most is what he was told.

- NO thinks they can build a team for the future around those 3. They really like Lonzo and believe he'll be better out of the LA spotlight. Turner didn't go into detail on Kuz or Zu.

- Thinks there's an 80% chance that AD ends up on the Lakers.

Of course he thinks there's an 80% chance of it happening - he's a LA reporter. Lol And this reeks of him trying hard to sell people on Lonzo, even with his disappointing play thus far and his family baggage.

Shams, on the other hand, says that the general feeling around the league is that GMs doubt that AD is dealt before the trade deadline, as it makes no sense to trade him before the presumed top buyer (i.e. Boston) can get into the mix.

RJ wasn't picking a fight. All she is saying is that Tatum is a necessity in any AD trade. That's the only reason that NOLA would wait until the season to deal with us. Sucks, as I love me some Tatum, but that's what it will cost if you want AD.

EDIT: RJ, I believe I remember that you are female. My apologies if I misgendered you!
