There's a lot of famous players in this league, who never won a Championship.
So listen to your Pops, your Agents, your Ghosts.
What will your Legacy Be?

One is Easy
And there is little Resistance
The Other is Hard
And takes much Persistence
Choose Wisely . . .

Re: Anthony Davis requests trade, part 3
Handful of teams that have no shot of trading for him other then the Lakers.
I’m really starting to not want this guy, he’s just being a giant bitch about it.

In my opinion, if AD doesn't want to be in a great situation like Boston then Danny Ainge needs to move on.

Re: Anthony Davis requests trade, part 3
AD made his mind up when he signed to Klutch Sports. He wouldn't sign Rich Paul if he was gonna want to go to another team. All the talks about interest with Knicks and Bucks is just PR that he isn't forcing himself to the Lakers. These teams have nothing to offer really. If Knicks get #1 pick they're in the convo but its a long shot

Is anyone saying this? I see people saying that Danny would have the balls to trade for him but most recent comments on this are negative.

Yeah at this point it's clearly personal.
He must just hate Ainge.
Maybe this is what's lead Irving to reconsider signing here.
I don't know if it's worth a new thread or not, but I'd be interested that if given Ainge won't give up real assets for a player that says he'll leave for nothing... does our new logical choice is to trade Irving before the deadline?
If Irving isn't fully committed, and AD refuses to play here there isn't a road to a ring with that core and a broken Hayward.
Might be time to turn ship and build around the youth. We have good youth in Tatum, Brown, Smart, Rozier.
It would be annoying but we wouldn't be starting from scratch. Trade the vets: Irving, Horford, Baynes, Morris. Try to get another Tatum through the draft.

Phoenix could. They have Booker, Ayton and their 1st round pick this coming year as major chips. Don't know if they have any interest in moving any of those for AD.

I don't agree. I think they are both talking out of their ass. Davis doesn't give a **** about a 5'6 dude who overachieved one year getting traded to a championship team with Lebron. I don't care how many months ago he said it.
So you think his pops is making this up to avoid a trade to Boston? Why are they doing this with Boston of all places? Why not NY? Woj said AD's camp gave a longer list of teams he'd resign with... and didn't include Boston.
I think AD and his camp expressed clearly they dont want Boston, and his pops is giving real insight as to why.
Because Boston has excellent assets to trade for him, arguably the best (and certainly ahead of NYK as of right now) and they only want LA.
As for you Woj question:Kordic27 wrote:Lebron and co. are doing high level manoeuvring here... they say he's not signing long term with Boston, so here's a list of teams. Guarantee the list of teams are handpicked to not be able to to offer a better deal than LA (ie. Clippers, Knicks, Brooklyn). And either way, ADs value is highest right now (if you remove Boston in the offseason, which they've done) rather than the offseason, therefore you have to trade with LA right now.
This makes no sense. Rich Paul is fully aware that the Pelican can give AD the Kawhi treatment.
Everyone making this into something bigger than it is. Like Rich Paul is some mastermind plotting and planning. I honestly think it hurts some to think that a player doesn't want to come to the team they root for.
This whole thing is pretty simple... Paul said "my client wants out. His mind is set on LA. Make it happen" ..... Pelicans come back and say "Their offers suck. We are exploring other options"..... Paul delivers that back to AD. AD thinks OK, well here are some other teams I would be OK with if the Lakers keep pussyfootin... Thats it.

They would have to gut the team but I guess Phoenix was fake shams. Real list is apparently Bucks, Clippers in addition to NYK/LAL.
