Mike Miller hit 7 threes in a game to win a championship for Lebron with a half broken back....

They might need to sign him if they give away most of their squad

I believe he lives in a trailer park in Louisiana

Magic Johnson was brilliant as a player....

As President of Basketball Operations.... he has a fiery type of mentality. He doesn't think everything through.

He's hoping Kyrie Irving somehow makes his way to LA in the offseason. People say.... well.... Kyrie isn't taking Lebron's sh#$ anymore. But who really knows? Kyrie doesn't want to stay with Boston. So where does he go?

Worst case scenario... you just do your best during free agency in the offseason... and sign players around Davis and James. But James may only have 1 more good year left in him. So.... whatever they do... it has to be done fast.

The trade may never happen either.... New Orleans has to think everything through as well. They seem to be in no rush.

That was the only thing I could see

Some other jackoff "star player" is ready to go there next year

but I have to imagine none of those kids are getting paid much so its not like they will make a bunch of cap room, while also taking on Solo's contract

wouldn't doubt it although one phone call from Lebron and he'll have Korver in LA for Cash considerations

I heard Pelicans want 4 first round picks.

they are on crack. if the rumoured offer is true (ball/ingram/kuzma/rondo/stephenson/beasley/2 firsts for hill/davis) that is more than fair enough

**The Kraken** · 02-05-19, 05:53 AM

You guys think you have it all figured out and that an nba exec hasn’t already considered everything you’re all saying months ago

They’re trading Ingram, Kuzma and two first round picks for Davis. The rest is fluff that is easily replaced.

Upcoming FA’s include Durant, Klay, Leonard, Boogie Cousins, Al Horford, Irving, and so many other decent players that if they land Davis, they will also land other bigger players in FA by next year.

They’re playing for the championship next year if they get Davis

Forget Rondo, Beasley, Stevenson and the draft picks, they could all be replaced tomorrow

Someone with a brain, finally.

Embarrassing what a once proud organization like the lakers have become - being Lebron bitch now - guess what ? You ain’t going win shit - Lebron is already on the decline - those injuries will pile up

**Hman** · 02-05-19, 10:28 AM

Keeping my fingers crossed crossed that AD decides he doesn't want to be traded to LA where LeBron will control him.

honestly wouldn't mind it... would make the early rounds of the playoffs easier to bet

You're right there, but there's a reason other stars don't want to play with LeBron. Davis is too naive to understand that and doesn't know what he's getting himself into.
He would he playing for LeBron, not the LA Lakers.

They should ask for Mirotic, not Hill. If the Pels say no to that offer then fk 'em. Get Davis for free in two years.

And how often has getting something for nothing worked for the Lakers. The guy won't be their in two years.

**Hman** · 02-05-19, 12:35 PM

New Orleans should not take this offer.

Better ones will come.

Hill would probably never play for the Lakers even if this trade goes through, he is most of the "cap relief". Lakers would only be adding AD.

**ikid2groove415** · 02-05-19, 02:37 PM

Lakers have pull out of the AD trade

Pelicans wanted kuzma/Ingram/ball and 6 draft picks lololololol

**Shafted69** · 02-05-19, 02:50 PM

Let the Pelican tanking commence ....

**ikid2groove415** · 02-05-19, 02:59 PM

Lakers would be a top 3-4 seed in the west with Paul George instead of Lebrenda this season - he’s carry OKC all year

**kidcudi92** · 02-05-19, 03:14 PM

So they ADDED Hart and Zubac last night along with Ingram Kuzma Ball and the 2 1rd picks AND take on Hill's awful contract

WTF more can the Pelicans want?

**DiggityDaggityDo** · 02-05-19, 03:21 PM

Davis just liked and then unliked the Lakers' trade offer on Instagram.

**IBetYou** · 02-05-19, 04:32 PM

Lakers need to trade for Beal if the Pels aint bluffing. Wiz have to make a move with Wall OUT for a season and a half. Lakers aren't getting Thompson next season if Durant leaves.

**packerd_00** · 02-05-19, 04:46 PM

No one wants to trade with the bloody Lakers.

**mr. leisure** · 02-05-19, 04:49 PM

The Lakers were not going to give the Pelicans the six to eight draft picks they wanted for Davis, the person said, knowing that the four first-round picks and second-round picks were more than the Lakers would offer.

**IBetYou** · 02-05-19, 04:57 PM

Ted Leonisis would be mad not to take Ingram/ Zubac/ KCP for Beal. They've needed a reset in DC for some time. What's the alternative? Miss the playoffs with a veteran team two years in a row?

I'd be surprised if Beal isn't dealt.

Apparently 6 draft picks instead of 2.

To be fair, this was the Pelicans' fault, upping request to 6 draft picks.

Bleed them for every penny. If the Lakers don't make a trade, their season is over.

They probably upped it because they know Magic Johnson is desperate. Guy tips his hand.

i agree... NO ain't getting a better offer than 3 good young players, 2 first rounders and taking on dead salary. i would question whether they'll even get that in the summer. LAL have only a few seasons with LBJ as the top player in the league (if he is).

people think they'd get more in a deal with a star player but then the star player probably doesn't want to play in NO and the pelicans won't control him like they would LAL 5 assets offered.

NO is crazy not to take this deal...... surprised NO doesn't have to include holliday

**homie1975** · 02-05-19, 07:05 PM

Pelicans know Lakers are desperate to get AD. They also have him under contract til 2020. Only way AD is a laker by thurs is if they get ripped off by the pelicans.
