That made more sense before Dipo got hurt. As it stands now Davis might be gone before Vic is back or at least 100 percent.

I don’t think that’s enough.

Sadly this reeks of everything aligning for Davis to end up in Los Angeles, unless the Pelicans just refuse to trade him to the West

Don't think it's a good idea for a small market team to trade for AD unless you have a real shot to contend with him right now

I'd pretty easily take that offer over what LA has.

Looking at it from Indy's perspective they've historically refused to tank, and they're right there in the hunt for the East despite missing so much time from Vic. I think it's pretty similar to where we were with Russ's future undecided.

Also, scared money don't make none.

Read on Twitter

If the NBA actually cared about enforcing the rules, they would prohibit the Lakers from trading for signing him. The whole franchise has been tampering every star player available since Johnson arrived and they don't even care.

The hand out these fines that are a slap on the wrist for public image but that’s it. It’s pathetic.

I don't think they will send AD this trade deadline just to **** on the lakers but it would be good for us if we are targeting KCP on the trade deadline. Lakers would have to include him on the deal to make it work. Don't know what kind of assets we should send to get KCP though.

Less than 1/4 of 1% of his yearly salary....

Real punishment means loss of draft picks or not approving a trade to Lakers

If you figure Davis’ annual salary at an hourly rate based on a 24hr day he makes around $2900 per hour. This is the equivalent of 17hrs of pay that he’s losing.

the lakers could pay him 500K just for him to say publicly that he wants to be a laker...

Real punishment is suspending agent's licenses when they leak things publicly. Make the player do it themselves, then suspend them for conduct detrimental to the team.

Pls let the Lakers panic and fire Luke Walton just to replace him with Jason Kidd.
This is the kind of ineptitude that I crave from them.

I wasn't wrong on Beasley for the Nuggets. Denver's roster is absolutely loaded.

I got a combined 120 PTS/19 3s/23 REB/22 AST/4 STL on 68 % shooting out of Westbrook-Schröder-George-Beasley for my fantasy team last night. Can't complain.

Confession, I think the special all star slots for washed beyond all recognition Dirk and Wade is super lame. The only thing lamer was watching literally every nba beat reporter in my twitter timeline slobber all over it like it was just the best thing ever for Adam Silver to conduct the all star team like a make a wish event for past their prime players.

Luka with 28 at half. I love his game. I hope KP comes back healthy. They could be so fun to watch.

It is very frustrating to root against the Nuggets. Will these guys ever mess up?

Yea, they really are a sound team.
Thats what system does for you, you put in any pieces inside that and they work without flaw.
