Anthony Davis requests trade, part 3

[Parliament10]

Per real Shams:

Clipper, Bucks, Lakers, Knicks. That’s the “handful”

That Kid is gonna go in Circles.

Is he really that stupid?

[SmartWentCrazy]

My honest opinion:

I think its weird that this keeps coming out that he wants no part of Boston. Im not going to disbelieve it cuz its negative when I’d be high fiving everyone if he said the opposite. I think its likely he knows Kyrie may be more seriously considering leaving than he’s publicly said.

I also think its weird that were sitting Kyrie in the last game before the deadline. It could just be a coincidence, but it still feels weird after a public stink was made that he’s now fully healthy. I think the chances of us dealing him before the deadline are higher than most are believing.

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:

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.

Hurt? Nah, man, AD 1000% does not want us. I've been saying this through all three threads. I just heavily disagree it has anything to do with Isaiah Thomas and think it's laughable anyone does. I think his comments are bull ****.

I think AD doesn't want us because he wants to play in LA only and doesn't like our team even with Kyrie and possibly doesn't like the weather in Boston like most people.

You know what Kid? -- Sign with whomever you want.
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?






"Path"

One is Easy
And there is little Resistance

The Other is Hard
And takes much Persistence

Choose Wisely . . .

This looks like the real Shams.

Aka... I want to play with either Lebron, Kyrie, Greek or Kawhi.

Nah, you always take this view that the Celtics' situation isn't as rosy as it is.

Rich Paul has shown himself time and again to think he is some mastermind and being pretty bad at doing it. We all just see through it.

I mostly think he’s doing this. Part of me does worry more about Kyrie, though.

Dude, if he’s trying THIS hard NOT to get traded to Boston, you think he’s re-signing even with Kyrie?

Hm. I don't know. Maybe the father saying he won't go to Boston, and providing the list of places that he would sign with (who don't have the assets to get him) - maybe those are coincidences? But the revelation that he wants a trade, at a time when LA needs a trade and Boston can't do a trade? That's tactical, and not by Davis.

What is he saying here?

What Cave has been saying but I will keep my head in the sand until I eat crow.

Ok. Just to make sure we are on the same page... You don't think AD would be OK with ANY other team except the Lakers?

[DK-All Day]

Jerry West is going pull of another miracle with the Clippers. Best executive ever.

New Orleans might be doing Danny Ainge a big favor by trading AD before Thursday trade deadline.

[GotDaSauce]

See? Miami, Chicago, Phoenix, Milwaukee. Teams that can't get him.

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.

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.

Trade him to the Clips and watch Lebrons life crumble around him!! Hahahah Would be A1 theater!

Right. Because LA is his dream scenario. Boston is a place he has no interest in. But there is an inbetween. And thats what Shams just reported.

Yeah I hear you. But what can you do? I am just trying to enjoy the ride and if he leaves it’s up to him. I think he would be crazy to go. But this year has been a bit of **** show. So I can see why he has a changed his stance a bit.

It's all Speculation.
But, Kyrie made an impassioned statement that he was going to re-sign here.

He even made a commercial, with his Father in it.
I can't see him turning coat, after all that.

But again, it's all Speculation.

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

Lol it’s been multiple reporters man on every single news outlet. Open your eyes

Do you have any idea of how this stuff works? They all have the same story because it came from the SAME PERSON. This isn’t even difficult to figure out. The reporters are pawns who post what they are told to by these guys which is how they have access to LeBron, etc. Don't be naive

Knicks have the assets.

But then he made it a point to backtrack on that statement by saying it was the heat of the moment. The commercial was likely filmed around the same time he made that statement or before. I think Kyrie leaving is very possible. I'd probably say 50-50 at this point.
