No, no, no, and no...

maybe DeRozan since he's the most attainable of those 4 but I don't think NOLA would want him or he would fit with Jrue/Zion


U know damn pop ain’t helping them tf out


That's true. I didn't think about Pop's hatred for the Lakers.

The fact that the package has been leaked again makes think they don’t give a **** about LA package especially after Rich Paul SI interview.

I know Rich Paul is calling out the Celtics but if things go a certain way both of his or Davis' preferred destination may not have cap room next year anyway to sign Davis. That is if Knicks and Lakers get stars to sign this year filling up their cap space. If Celtics do trade for Davis, he probably would end up staying here a little longer in that scenario, wishful thinking may be on my part.

I think he's a parody account at this point.


Same guy who says Smart can't shoot every chance he can is also the same guy who was so happy to hear the news that the Celtics were talking with Rozier about coming back next year. Pretty funny that Marcus shot better than Rozier last year, and of course, finished 1st team All-Defense. But sure, "no one wants Marcus Smart". :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Not wishful thinking. They either punt another year of LBJ's career or they sign whoever they can and trade for whoever they can if Davis fall through. Then it's the Knicks who might suck for another year and have the cap.
Good assessment:

I broke my foot over the weekend so I've been working from home the past 2 days. The SI article with Rich Paul filled my morning up,and the Woj bomb has made this day so fun, it makes me forget that I'm going to be in a **** cast for most of the summer. :lol:

I just don't think anyone would give up a proven player, let alone an All-Star/fringe All-Star for the #4 pick in a two-player draft. Lakers are gonna be hard-pressed to find that third team.

I don't believe Griffin is looking for someone like Kevin Love or LaMarcus Aldridge either when he specified All-Star.

Should take less from us to get him just to remove the issue of Davis in the west. Imo but granted that's just fan talk.



I always thought that was crazy thinking. ( not calling u crazy) . Gotta take the best deal.


That's true but good luck getting to the promised land that way.
