    I should add on top of the three reasons I posted above:

    He may be their best player. For sure it's either him or Kyrie, but that's a close call.

    It will be interesting to see if he regains form, and how he looks alongside their up and coming stars like Tatum.

    He may no longer be their best player actually. A few variables in play.

    Similar situation to Leonard. Both these guys for the first half of the season rightfully should be compared to how they played prior to their injuries.

    Davis is coming, boys; I don't know how much of the roster will be gutted for him, but f*** it, It's Anthony Davis.

    Come on down...

    Wrong. Locate the Clips anywhere other than LA and see how many sniffs they get from FAs.

    I firmly believe but at the very least I hope Magic and Rob get accomplished with a much smarter attitude than that Pop .... bringing AD here. So far they have given every indication of valuing our best young talent more seriously than that. On the path to becoming top heavy salary wise and talent wise if we have a star FA signing in the works this summer as well. I trust our "You've been Robbed" GM to take care of business in that manner. How about you though .... at least waiting to see the first half of the season to be better able to see exactly what we already own here on our roster?

    :Magic Brows:

    Love and hugs

    Your son

    With all due respect, my guy, AD is 25 and a top 5 player.

    When a player of his stature is available, you do anything you can to get him.

    And irrespective of what I may think, we will get to see the kids this season as you wish...

    Sincerely,

    Your Pops.

    Hey Ainge is white and was traded by the cbags, so I don't care who you are, if AD is available, you try to trade for him using whatever resource you may have.

    That being said....

    Eerily similar to Bird even...

    So even if the cbags wanted to trade Hayward (and with news like this they probably do), they wouldn't be able to get off his contract now unless they incentivize the f*** out of it.

    I don't think race is a factor in that decision. If you can get the better player, you do it.

    Only way NO trades Davis is if they completely miss the Playoffs this Year & he demands a Trade..

    would prefer to keep bi n make everybody else available...think a base of kuzma/ball with multiple picks could peak nop interest.....chemistry with jules there too n allows holiday to continue his success at sg spot

    I think BI would be the better package than Ball/Kuz, for both teams. I really doubt NO would want any part of the Lavar circus if he gets traded to them.

    Kuz is a nice piece, but not enough for AD. BI has the talent to be a standalone star at the moment, and the closest one to it.
