    sh*t, I doubt Boston is topping that...AD’s camp keeps saying he has no interest in staying in Boston long-term, so I doubt Danny would include Tatum if that’s the case

    Between AD joining Boston and Lakers at least its better if he ends up in LA.

    Lebron is old, their FO incompetent, they dont have draft picks or cheap young star players, they wont have capspace and they dont have a good coach.
    Hell they are interested in hiring Kidd.

    Ending up in Boston with that old fox Ainge and Stevens is much worse for the rest of the league.

    It will be interesting to see, as Kyrie is probably playing his best ball as a Celtic right now and the Celtics are 9-1 over their last 10.

    I do NOT believe this report.

    Everytime the same thing. Bogus reporters get fed straight up lies and it is later revealed that the actual offer isnt even half of it.

    Yea and with Irving being so non committed to Boston theres no way that cheapskate offers Tatum now.

    No team is topping that offer. They will take Hill’s contract too? No brainer for N.O.

    How can the Pelicans say no?

    If that offer is real, it's probably the best they can get.. That's the absolute best package LAL can put together.

    That's the Los Angeles Lakers... especially if/when your whoever is Julius Randle.

    Plus Jrue.

    And I like Jrue... but c'mon.

    Where will the 2 picks end up? One late teens and one in the mid/late 20s?

    I think the offer sucks... but maybe it's just me.

    The best player they will get is, AT BEST, a #3 on a championship team after 3+ years more development.

    That LA rumor just looks like a young, disgruntled group of guys who would very likely not stick around once they get a chance to bolt.

    I could be wrong, but I can see why New Orleans may not like that offer, as valuable as some may think it is on paper.

    Listen, when obscure reporters give live updates on offers and they seem like no brainers but the trade hasnt happened it is evidence that they get fed lies by the team.

    It has happened again and again. Wondering why Indiana didnt take all Ainge's 1000 picks? Because they were never on offer.

    I have learned my lesson with these fake news.

    Who out there is offering something better than that?

    AD’s camp keeps insisting that AD is not gonna re-sign in Boston? U really think Ainge is gonna give up Tatum when that’s the case? Boston’s offer without Tatum is not better.

    Unless the team that gets the #1 pick is NY, NO will have no chance at getting it because AD is def not re-signing with any of the other trash teams that are tanking.

    I have to agree. I have been misled by phony reports several times this season alone. I guess we will see by Thursday.

    Even a #3 pick might be better than any single piece the Lakers are offering though. I still think if NY offers its unprotected 2019 pick, they get AD. How likely is it that Zion ends up better than Davis? Possible, but I wouldn't call it highly likely.

    I wonder how Harden feels about this right now. He must be furious at Morey and Tilman

    Well, that's the question. NOP clearly asking themselves that as well.

    You have to increase risk here, to get increased reward... but worth it imo. Keep in mind, the NOP will suck anyway.

    Guys if that deal goes though...the Lakers are GUTTED. They would have no real PG, no wing depth whatsoever.

    They would be forced to sign Melo just to have a starting PF. Let that sink in.
