oh , I guess the Lakers never traded anyone.
Or magic never got coaches fired because he never liked them or Lebron who traded his old team midseason for another team.

AD himself said something about the IT trade and loyalty last year. This is frustrating, because he is being loyal to the Pelicans how?

Having your best player come out with that, with this timing, when you're talking about getting the team on track to contend for a championship, has to be tough. Seemed like Brad heard real negativity, was taken aback by it - said 'um' a couple times, that Kyrie's comments weren't "all negative", he said some good things about Boston, you just have to block it out (seemed like he was speaking as much about himself as players).


Nothing telling here imo

It only goes one way, apparently. Organizations supposed to be loyal to players while the players do whatever they want.

This is about the least concerning thing I've seen today. Davis is a grown man. You think he gives a crap about what his dad wants him to do? Lol

It's compounded by the fact that AD himself said something about the Celtics not being loyal to IT, last year.

Yeah and if we want to talk about loyalty, isn't Davis not being loyal but turning down the Supermax?

Hypocritical dad for sure.

Watching pregame and Mannix looked like his dog died. Something stinks in Cs land and they are all scrambling to figure this out. I’m sure Ainge is fuming right about now. Wyc too probably.

It would so be an Isaiah Thomas move to Tweet out in defense of Boston.

There were rumors that Davis Sr. got 200k when his son chose Kentucky.. it's on Wikipedia - there was a major back and forth, UK and Dad Davis threatened to sue and never did, the newspaper that reported it stood by the story.

I get why the IT deal upset people, but it would be blind and stupid loyalty to stick with an undersized point guard with a developing chronic condition when you can super-size him to Kyrie Irving for another fifty cents.

And Anthony Davis just asked for a trade with a year and a half left on his contract - is that loyalty? What about LA being willing to trade everyone but Lebron? Who is this dude?

My only condition if we get Davis is that he shaves the unibrow. Trademark some new t-shirt **** like 'Two brows are better than one' or 'Divide and conquer'
