AD feels the same way his pops feels. He's mentioned the IT situation several times before his father did. The only way he ends up in Boston is if Danny is that stubborn and willing to risk it all... So yea, he'll be a Celtic. Lol.


They don't actually feel that way, just laying down bull excuses to try to secure LA more. They aren't idiots.


Doubt it. I truly think thats one of the few reasons AD doesn't want Boston. I

All propaganda to get a trade going now instead of the summer.

Pels do not do this trade now.. waste more of LEbrons time.

KD can go **** himself but his talent is absurd. I'd take him here in a hot second.

I'd be extremely reluctant to take that ring chasing ****.

Literally every single tweet that has been sent out has been bad news. Time to start seriously contemplating just moving on.

If you believe that, you must believe AD and his father are hypocritical morons who must also have some modicum of respect for a short ass mediocre basketball player. It's possible I suppose.

Everyone calm your tits. We can't trade for AD at the deadline unless Kyrie is traded in the deal. Davis wants to play with Kyrie. Hence we are not on the list UNTIL the summer

Alright lads how many tweets like this do we need to see before we question if he’ll actually sign here


Who do you think is feeding this “reporter” this info? How many clearly propaganda tweets do you need to see before you question whether this is all just garbage from LeBron and his team

AD wants a move NOW and to LA. There's no reason for him have us on the list.

Can't argue with you despite disagreeing. The dude is indeed a mother ****. Just a sucker for that talent level, lol. I want more rings so badly.

Drag this out no matter what. Waste lebron’s year this season by possibly not making the playoffs with that mediocre roster. No point in not dragging this out

If say the Celtics go to the finals and take like 2 games from the warriors. Opinions will change. Remember the hype Tatum, Brown, and Rozier got from the playoffs? It wasn’t from the regular season. The Celtics playoff run can be a big factor in having a player like Davis and Kyrie change their mind about wanting to stay in Boston or in Davis’ case, being traded there. No reason not to pursue and just gift Lebron whatever damn players and coaches he wants. **** him and take this to the summer. Lebron and his load management needs to compete the rest of the season just to make the playoffs.

Moving on from what?
A Tweet is nothing.

Actions are what count.
Let's see what the Real Actual Physical (and Contractual) Actions are.

Factual -- Actual -- Contractual.

The entire strategy, from the time of the demand, to the telling teams anyone else is a rental etc. has been designed with one thing in mind. Get AD to the Lakers ASAP. That's what he wants, his agent wants, and the Lakers want.

IMHO, it's just a matter of time..

At this point, I wish NOLA would just let AD rot in New Orleans until he can become a FA and sign with his precious Los Angeles Lebron's.

Clearly that won't happen since they'll want to get something for him, but hey wishful thinking :pray:

I don't even care about this anymore. I've just got to the point where I want to just focus on the rest of the year

I'm good with AD. Its really not worth the hassle. He can end up on any other team and will most likely have a worse record than we do this time next year. Save the assets for someone that wants to be here.

SO this is why A team,an owner, a franchise, cannot allow this to happen on someones else time line.
The Pels need to take control and say, you may be a Laker but its mot going to be before the 7th.

That may be the wisest choice.
I'm sure that Ainge will explore all of that, before making any iron clad commitments.

Bro, it's Woj. Unless Bron has turned him to the darkside it has to be legit.

Again, many months ago AD referenced the IT situation regarding teams not being loyal. This is not something they pulled out of their a$$ recently. I don't think it's the ONLY reason, but I def think its A REASON. So when his father is asked about Boston.. that's going to be his answer. Do I care about Rose or Butler? No. But if someone asked me do I want to play for Thibs, I'd say nope and reference how he ran both dudes into the ground. Its the same nonsense.

It also tells me 1. Kyrie may not be returning.. OR 2. AD doesnt have a burning desire to play for Kyrie.

Because I'll tell you one thing... If Lebron/KD/Curry etc were in Boston, the IT situation wouldn't be as pressing.

Return to Boston Celtics
