I'm not hearing anything, it just seems likely - Philly wants to load up, they were chasing Lebron and Kawhi - once Cousins is gone from New Orleans, the Pelicans are still capped out, and their only move is to try to sign a max player next summer, which would mean renouncing Mirotic, too.

Philly can offer any/all of Covington, Bayless, Saric and Fultz, and have Simmons, AD and Embiid as their core, with cap left over for Reddick, Tyreke, or Avery Bradley..

Lmfao. You seriously think that poo poo platter would get them Anthony freaking Davis?

Seeing Bayless on that list is one of the more shocking things I’ve ever read, even on this site.

Jaylen alone tops any player on that list, and Boston has two picks more valuable than any Philly can offer. An AD move—which isn’t on the horizon—goes through Boston unless Philly is going to throw Simmons in the mix, which they absolutely should if AD bet became available.

Bayless is an expiring contract, that’s the only reason I mentioned him.

Jaylen is a better prospect, but teams don’t all evaluate players the same way - Fultz has go-to scorer upside.

I don’t see how Davis and the Pelicans are both going to be happy running it back another year, and New Orleans can demand more value making a trade now.

I don't know.

Maybe we should have a sticky thread to say good bye to the King?

It's a nice 14 years period to enjoy the EPIC battles against the King. (2003-2018)

James, King of East, 2011-2018.

Farwell.

Have a nice time in the WEST.

Lakers will still suck, maybe become mediocre, but still be able to sweep the season series with the Kings. As a matter of fact, if Conley & Gasol are healthy, is there anyone in the West aside from the Clipps (as currently constituted) that Sacto has a chance of winning a game against all year? That pick looks tasty...

Lmao. I mean let's be honest..LeBron and LA is like a match made in heaven. The most douchey slime ball franchise signs the most douchey diva in the NBA.

All I need now is for Lonzo to start dating a Kardashian..add that to LaVar and LBJ and LA and wow. Must see TV lol

Boo. The bandwagoners are already in full force especially on social media.

I can't wait for the first time Lavar blames LeBron for a loss, or for not giving the ball to Lonzo at the end of the game!

I expect KL and Cousins to join the Lakers.

Yeah I think they must've worked something out already like when Bron joined Cleveland in 2014 and must've already known that they were gonna trade Wiggins for Love.

That Lakers team is pretty bad; Randle was probably their best player from last season and they may not even re-sign him

But but. Kyrie was a snake and selfish not wanting to stay in Cleveland and be left with that **** roster.

While I wanted LeBron as a Laker, I completely overlooked that we have an eternity of “The East is Trash” posts due to everybody’s fixations on all stars. Groan.

Man, didn't you know? When Kyrie does it, it's "selfish." When LeBron does it, it's "WELL HE'S MAKING THE BEST DECISION FOR HIMSELF!"
