OFFICIAL: Anthony Davis traded to Lakers

[Paulius]

Zion RJ era in New Orleans

Get on the wave before its too late

 

[bosoxlover12]

The question is did New Orleans lose their primary leverage for Davis?
 
Kyrie's gone, so the Celtics are out of Davis talk.
And if Durant joins Brooklyn, they will probably be situated with their roster and not trade for Davis.
If Durant's in Brooklyn, Knicks are out.
 
So what do the Lakers have to beat out? Just SGA and draft picks? I dont think the Lakers even need to give up Ingram at this point

 

[jonathanlambert33]

Lol no

 

[VonteegoCummings]

Even as a warriors fan id love to see KD sign to Brooklyn and then see them move for AD. This isn't 2k though and I couldn't imagine it.

No Kyrie, no AD.


I think it's Lakers or Knicks.

I dont see KD going to brooklyn though and I think the lakers are it. Move the pick and youth. I can't see them retaining Ingram though.

I dont think we can count the Knicks out either though. Picks and youth for AD, lure Kyrie and maybe retain Deandre Jordan.

 

[Paulius]

Im starting to get on the hes going to be traded to the Lakers train, then there would be other small deals after that.

But you told me i was crazy when i said pelicans fucked up by not taking that big package a couple months ago

Now, if it is the Lakers, yall arent getting that kind of package

Tried to warn you , Nola

 

[Mexi]

There were some that legitimately thought KD wouldnt play this series either.

me

But Nola where is AD going

 

[Paulius]

me

But Nola where is AD going

He promised us he’s going to Boston

 

[jonathanlambert33]

me

But Nola where is AD going

Still think it depends on how much Boston offers. If they offer Tatum, Brown, and the Memphis pick I think hes a Celtic. If not I think he is a Laker. Nets are a dark horse.

 

[Paulius]

Kyrie is gone, they aint offering anything

Everything. We. Tried. To. Tell. You. Months. Ago.

 

[jonathanlambert33]

But you told me i was crazy when i said pelicans fucked up by not taking that big package a couple months ago

Now, if it is the Lakers, yall arent getting that kind of package

Tried to warn you , Nola

They arent apples to apples. There was no reason to take the deal at that time, and the way this entire thing has played out with the Pelicans getting 1st overall and the Lakers getting 4th overall shows that. If the Lakers end up being the team, the Pelicans will get everything they want and more considering that first rounder is considerably more valuable now.

 

[jonathanlambert33]

Yall are still wrong. Boston is still offering Tatum plus more, but it still comes down to whether they include both Brown and the Memphis 1st. Like I said months ago.

 

[Paulius]

We’ll see once we find out the package yall get back

It better be better than the one you were so against a couple months ago...

Nola here might be sitting on a historic L [emoji102]

Find out next

 

[Paulius]

And you’re still wrong about thinking Boston will want AD if Kyrie is gone

Kyrie and AD is a great plan

Losing Kyrie, and then trading all the young talent for AD and watching AD walk in a year is definitely not the plan

Why do you keep thinking thats the plan. Getting AD without Kyrie defeats the purpose of convincing him to stay

You had all these months to think about this, and still you keep riding w this stuff, man

Yall are still wrong. Boston is still offering Tatum plus more, but it still comes down to whether they include both Brown and the Memphis 1st. Like I said months ago.

 
you can have terry rozier and marcus morris if you want
 
boston isnt offering tatum

 

[jonathanlambert33]

Well see once we find out the package yall get back

It better be better than the one you were so against a couple months ago...

Nola here might be sitting on a historic L [emoji102]

Lol I was against it for obvious reasons. There was no reason for them to accept a deal with anyone at the time.

A lot has changed. Some teams are more attractive, some are less attractive. Some assets are more attractive, some less attractive. I cant tell you specifically wheres hes going, but I can tell you the core of any deal he would be involved in.

 

[Paulius]

Either way, you guaranteed us that Tatum will be a Pelican

Im just waiting for that

 

[Pugz]

i think ad could end up in boston still but he has to guarantee an extension first. especially with kyrie walking. if hes a laker, that original package will not be in the table.

pels have literally lost every drop of leverage they may have had.. and they didnt have much before

 

[jonathanlambert33]

Either way, you guaranteed us that Tatum will be a Pelican

Im just waiting for that

Lol stop putting words in my mouth.

 

[Paulius]

Lol stop putting words in my mouth.

Nola....

Dont make me go back

You literally said the deal is in place or something along those lines

 

[Pugz]

you definitely said something very similar lol
