I just think the question is, who is like to blink first?

The Pels who have no reason to blink, or

AD who does not want to spend another year with this franchise and is given the option of other winning situations.

Its AD.

They did this NOW to try and force their way at the deadline. Once that doesn't happen they will open it up to more teams this offseason.

Its easy to be drawn in by the LAL hype machine.




well dude, he is a client of Lebron James' agency. They share the same agent. He's having fricking dinner with him after a game in LA. They are leaking that he wants to go to LAL. It's safe to say that is his preferred destination, and as long as that is public its going to hurt the pelicans

also have to consider that if you're boston/whoever and this guy is basically saying L.A or bust, you are possibly trading away key pieces for a malcontent

why would anyone do that?
Seems to be working out fine for Toronto, no?

There's a difference between "preferred destination" and "I won't re-sign with anyone else, frick you trade me to the lakers".

That is just what draws attention. Because FANS are just that: fanatics. And team based forums like Saints talk & this one always hold out for the best. I do not post about my own teams with a bias. I just dont operate like that.

No one notices when you agree with everyone. I never say anything to be contrarian. I am a realist bunchie. I take information, process it, and draw my own conclusions. And im usually pretty good with it.
Has anyone ever accused Boom and LE of being the same person?

THat post just screamed Boom, it was straight out of the Boom playbook.

The packages will get worse this summer and the Pelicans will be left begging for prospects.

If it gets to this summer Davis will just say he is going to sign with the Lakers and the Lakers will offer only Ball and Ingram after they sign Kawhi Leonard, Kyrie Irving, or Klay Thompson.

Serious question, if this level of tampering goes on what recourse could the Pelicans or NBA pursue against the guilty parties?

Kawhi was coming off a season where he played like 2 games. He had a “serious” injury and a poor reputation as a teammate. These situations are apples and oranges.

AD has been injured for a shite ton of games here. he hasn't exactly been cal ripken for us.

i agree he isn't a malcontent but if you're rich paul and the lebron people, you spread the word that AD is going to LAL no matter what and Boston may still even be interested, we'll just get a worse deal

I didn’t even bother reading it until you quoted it and said that, but that’s pretty spot on.

I'm shook to my core right now.

We need to stop worrying about AD and focus on this bombshell.

I’m talking about the spurs who are in the same position as us

Even so, Do i need to explain the differences here? Toronto didn’t mortgage their future. Of course they’d trade Derozan for a year of Kahwi. The same way someone would trade Kevin love for a year of AD.
