Not sure haven't heard. Heard that Charlotte wants to keep Bridges though.

Those are the locks, others depending on how the rest of this season/post-season goes, Toronto, Clippers, Bucks, Denver...etc.

Thats completely pointless, we all know whatever they land will be completely subjected to the opinion of whoever has an asshole, and there will be MANY differing opinions. The fact that our opinions differ so much on this Lakers package represents that.

Id also say this is a very fair assessment of the deal from Nate Silver:

IMO the whole key to the Anthony Davis saga is that, per our numbers, both Ball and Ingram have played to only the ~10th or 20th percentile of their preseason projections. They've stagnated, maybe even regressed, in a year when they were supposed to show a lot of development.

I should do the math on this more precisely, but the reduction in long-term expected value from Lonzo + Ingram (combined) works out to something like $35m in cap space per year, i.e. it's basically like losing a max-level player

That just takes so much value off the table. If their development had been on track, then say Lonzo + Ingram + one 1st would have been a pretty fair offer for Davis. Maybe the Pelicans squeeze one more asset out, maybe even 2, but the trade happens & everyone feels pretty good.

Toronto package trash, plus kawhi gone
Bucks package trash
Denver wont do it

Clippers the only other team who might go for him bc JWest has balls like that
But might just try to sign Kawhi Jimmy Or KD and keep the other pieces around

Hes gonna be a Laker and the package will be worse than the one pelicans just declined

 

[DJT]

But the knicks offering possible top 3 picks. Celtics have nice pieces. LA will have to compete with those at the very least.

Rupture and a tear is the same thing lol

And i dont think he slipped and fell haha, somethin else happened that he cant say bc of reasons that might void his contract

 

[Paulius]

Pelicans just shooting themselves in the foot by playing this game

Thats all i gotta say

This topic is boring now

 

[DJT]

I honestly don't think they are shooting themselves in the foot. From the moment the trade demand came out it has been in their best interest as a team to wait till summer. Collect their offers and take the best one.

 

[Mexi]

It will be better than that heaping pile of garbage the Lakers were offering.

only if they're getting Tatum or Zion and Knox

 

[DJT]

Settling for LA's one possible best offer now will be doing them a disservice. That means they don't think any of the other 28 or so teams have an offer anywhere close to as good as LA's.
