Lakers Close to Landing Anthony Davis?

[homie1975]

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

No. The number of draft picks went from 2 up to 4. It was never 6 picks. They wanted 6 players and 2 picks them it went to 6 players and 4 picks and then the Lakers dipped out. I live in LA and am following like a hawk.

Lakers fan?

Can you post your opinion on the trade offer.

Do you feel LA is offering too much or do you think the players being offered are bums and you'd love to see them go?

HMAN I'm a clipper fan. Don't like the Lakers but do love following LA sports

But I do think they are giving away way too much

Thanks for the reply.

As we speak the Lakers are getting smoked in Indiana.

Why was LA favored in this game???

Lakers might as well pull the trigger and get a deal done before Thursday. It has gotten to a tipping point within the organization. They can’t afford to whiff on Davis. Lebron, his people and Magic are lined up against Luke and Ms. Buss and want this now. Lebron probably has 4 “Lebron” seasons left in him. He doesn’t want to lose out the next 2 w no AD. Carmelo and some other old guys/shooters will sign for veteran minimum to round out roster for remainder of season and then they can use summer to try and build a Gst beater. The kids involved in deal can’t be happy going to work everyday either but that is life on planet Lebron.

The guys they are giving up are nothing special and the draft picks will be lower end of 1st round. New Orleans can spin the kids they don’t like for other assets and Rondo has value for teams needing a playoff tested pg. This team could be in Vegas by 2022 anyways. New Orleans is under less pressure to make the deal. LA needs it.

This is my opinion as well.

Those guys they are trying to unload aren't ever going to be difference makers.

[cincinnatikid513]

pelicans should wait boston has better draft picks better young talent

[MiDNiTe]

It will be funny if Davis says no chance he will sign extension if traded to critics

[Big John Studd]

Walton will be fired in the next few days

[bjb7223]

down by 40

[Shafted69]

Lakers tanking for Zion. Or "Quit tryin for Zion"

[cincinnatikid513]

wonder if luke gets fired after tonights game

[TheMoneyShot]

Who are they going to sign??? Stan Van Gundy?

Lebron is the kind of a$$hole to throw a game to make a coach look bad. He's a fukking prick.

Trade them all

[kidcudi92]

He’s already done

GM/Coach Lebron already is ready to fire him

[TheMoneyShot]

I have a feeling Anthony Davis isn't going anywhere....

Unless Lakers empty the tank... and give the most players and draft picks for 1 player in the History of the NBA.

No reason for New Orleans to give in.

yes 10-1 in sbr sportsbook he is on pelicans start 2019 season is great value

[TheMoneyShot]

yes 10-1 in SBR Sportsbook he is on pelicans start 2019 season is great value

I didn't even know that. Maybe I should rephrase what I just said... New Orleans shouldn't give into the Lakers... but you never know with Boston??? They come up with some good trades. Could AD land in Boston? Very interesting.

[Big John Studd]

Davis is an ugly oyster

[spippen]

Biggest one ever in sports

Thats why Paul George wanted zero to do with going to LAL.

[homie1975]

yes 10-1 in sbr sportsbook he is on pelicans start 2019 season is great value

chances are very high that he gets dealt in the offseason so the odds are that high for a reason

[sheedy17]

call me crazy but I wouldn't trade multiple picks and Tatum for Davis. I probably wouldn't do it straight up.

[homie1975]

agree with first part, do not agree with second part. you won't find a GM alive who would not trade straight up Tatum for Davis. Davis is better and it's not even a discussion to be honest. Pelicans will demand tremendous assets in return and a lot of them at that

[thomorino]

The Boston rumors seem like bullshit, why would Boston trade Tatum for Davis in the offseason when Davis would only have 1 year left on his deal. Pelicans knew Davis wanted a trade before the season started when Davis hired Klutch sports, this idea that Davis sprung his trade requests on the Pelicans is garbage. Its pathetic to see all these NBA analysts report everything they're told without knowing if its accurate or using common sense. The Pelicans are being offered 5 first round picks since they could trade Ball to Phoenix for a first round pick, that's fair value for a player with a year and a half left on his deal. If New Orleans trades Ball to Phoenix for a first round pick and tanks they could have 2 top 10 picks this draft in what should be a deep draft class.

there is no way phoenix is giving up its 1st round pick for lonzo ball, he cant shoot maybe some other teams 1st round pick that would be a late rounder but a lottery pick for ball no way

[thomorino]

Phoenix desperately needs a point guard and their aren't any great ones in this years draft class. Ball has shot well from 3 point range, its free throw shooting and the midrange game that he needs to work on, he's young he will get better.

[thomorino]

The Phoenix pick they would trade for Ball would likely be top 5 protected, outside of the top 5, their aren't any players that project to clearly be better than Ball, and Phoenix needs a point guard.

[bjb7223]

Watch Lebums body language in Boston tonight.

[bjb7223]

Jerry West just stole their lunch money. Zubac and Beasely for Muscala. lol

The Lakers plan to evaluate the full buyout market once it takes shape, but Carmelo Anthony is expected to be among the considerations too, league sources tell ESPN.

Rozier will be a target for them in offseason likely via sign and trade. Ainge likes Jackson and Suns have enough wings.

Lakers took a big L at this trade deadline. They will hire Kidd or Billups to replace Luke by March and see how far LeBron can carry them in playoffs.
