My bad I didn’t see there is some discussion in the “around the league” thread. Feel free to keep this open for discussion or delete it.

Ok, so what happens if/when AD refuses to step foot on the floor for the Celtics?

Dell Dumps got what he deserved. They should have been more professional about the negotiations.

Like I said when he was being a begrudging ass with us; buh-bye, Demps! I hope you’ll like your new job.
Talk about being a narcissistic idiot, putting ego over team interest. We offered him a full rebuild starting five of an average age under 22. He said no. I hope his butt hurt ego pays him well.

This gives Ainge an excuse to bail on offering Tatum without backlash. He can say that he had an agreement with Dell and since there is no Dell them there is no agreement.

I'm just interested to see them crash and burn. Serves them well for being idiots not taking the offer and the damage inside the Laker locker room.

Seems like that's up to our 'trade pieces' more than anyone else.

Yeah, Silver should disenfranchise them, for basketball reasons.

I'm not sure if this helps the Lakers at all.
The Pelicans are soliciting offers from all teams, not just those on AD's list. Since he has a full year left on his contract, that invites competitive teams to roll the dice, as the Raptors and Thunder have.
Moreover, Gayle Benson was incensed that AD and Rich Paul handled his injury (just left the arena, didn't inform the team). She is not going to let AD and Rich Paul wag the dog.
Danny Ferry, who is a great GM, is not going to lose this opportunity to get back in the game after the Luol Deng incident. He is going to work very closely with Gayle Benson to get her trust and save face for the franchise.
And now, Anthony Davis reportedly said Boston is on his list (Wojnarowski).
None of this is good for AD to the Lakers.

If true this is good for the Lakers IMHO. Trading the entire group to NO is not getting us closer to a championship. I hope we give up on these stat hounds and balance the team around Bron. Trading 1 or 2 of the young guys to do it would be a great way to do it.

Yea not sure why anyone is still holding out hope for an AD deal. NO ownership and Mgmt gave us the biggest middle finger they could at the deadline after we offered everything thing we could. Move on

I think AD trade is dead. Hence, AD comments. Lakers to max someone else and move on.

in light of the Davis' "29 other teams are on my list" and "I never said the Boston Celtics were never on my list" comments

AD is going to Knicks. KD is already heading to Knicks and he needs another superstar and that is AD.
Knicks will offer 2019 FRP (Zion) plus Kevin Knox plus DSJ plus FN plus Mavs 2020 FRP and Mavs 2022 FRP and Knicks 2021 FRP. That package is better than that of lakers.
Not sure if we can entice Kwahi and Kyrie to come to Lakers

Lakers should've rested Lebron and tanked the year for the top pick.
