If we filter this thread to everyone saying the same thing only just one time then this thread would be less than 10 pages long.

They are, not literally but they are working to find a 3rd team that would trade a star to the Pelicans for the 4th pick.

Can't wait to trade for Davis and Kyrie stuns everyone (but me) and stays with Boston.....

Then everyone says Ainge did it again and Kyrie is forgiven.

I've never been more indifferent on a move in my life than whatever kyrie decides to do.

The Pelicans would know better who they want and what they may be willing to give up besides the 4th pick.

Oh please. The Lakers are offering the 4th pick to the Pels but Griffin doesn't want a rookie. He wants to use the pick to get a veteran starter.

I want players that want to be here. Sick of this L.A bull. Big market crap. Seems like BSPN is on the lakers payroll.

Because last time having a disgruntled player on the roster worked out well....

Boston winters are fine, it’s not like Minnesota or Buffalo, and if you’re Anthony Davis rich you’re going to be driving on a heated seat from underground parking garage to underground parking garage, looking out the window of your luxury apartment at the leaves and snow..

I don’t get the way free agents have always liked Phoenix - that city gets stupid hot

What if the Irving story is just a smoke screen to keep the price point for Davis down?

Wow today was boring. I've given up on kyrie for the most part *not completely* but not AD. No amount of leaks will make me give up on AD until it's official. I refuse to believe we are going into next year, a wide open year, not being a contender. I won't believe it and you can't make me.

Pelicans dont even get the better pick out of it while losing Davis.

Sounds about right.

Doesn't seem like a good deal for the Bulls. Move up 3 spots in a bad draft and swap LaVine for Lonzo/Lavar.
