    TIFWIW but this is being talked about on Twitter recently and Scoop B and LeBron's trainer (who broke the news that Melo was getting waived by Rockets) is insinuating a deal between the Lakers and Pelicans with Orlando involved somehow.





    If this is true very bad news for Rockets fans and the rest of the West.

    i would think ainge could beat that and probably has some pressure to make a move right now. not sure which team silver would prefer AD on though

    Anthony Davis still has two years left in his contract. Pelicans can do this next year.

    Boston cannot trade for AD this year. Derrick Rose rule. So time is on the Lakers side until this summer when Boston is free to trade for AD.

    Magic and Pelinka are ready to get it done this year before Boston even has a chance.

    It makes more sense for Pelicans to wait for next year. Let Lakers and Celtics compete for AD.

    Anything Lebron wants, Lebron gets. I'm sure this will happen. The league bends over backwards to help Lebron. I hope they both get fat and have to retire from the NBA because of meat sweats.

    Let's also not ignore that Jarrett Jack said this was going to happen too:

    yea I agree. would make more sense to have the celtics included in trade discussions to up the value and just wait until next summer.

    p move if KD and broN are on the same team. So it’s rings over any kind of competitiveness in the nba now?
    I mean Lebron just wants KD to do all the work for him while he rest and gets more rings. We all know how KD is a real Bch even his team mates acknowledge it. And AD is not at fault he wants a ring

    Hope Harden somehow convince him to join us but idk how we could get him anyway.

    But if this indeed happens I won’t watch the nba or if I do I just won’t watch the playoffs. Plus it’s gonna get crazy here in LA.

    LMAO.

    4 first rounders and Capela is better than that deal.

    Ingram being the headliner in a trade is vomit-inducing,

    If the Pelicans make that trade, every single person who had knowledge of that trade and didn't voice negative opinions deserve to lose their job.

    I think there's a good chance this is going to happen, and Durant will go down in history as the biggest coward ever, for me he is already but well...i guess this would cement that for more people.

    That’s what I am thinking Capela would be a perfect trade piece for AD. You’d lose the best C but gain a top 5 in return in addition to picks and good players like Clark or knight and they might want to take a flyer on Chriss.

    Not to mention Capela is locked up for many years on a reasonable contract

    I love dellusion of rockets fans when it comes to trades. Capela for AD? You serious? no ammount of picks rationalizes that

    Let's relax a bit. Ingram will most likely be better then any player from those 4 late first round picks, Ball is in his second year and not a scrub (certainly a work in progress), and a Vucevic is currently in a breakout season. Then add another FRP to that.
