    Ramona Shelbourne apparently said on Ireland's show that an AD trade before the deadline ain't happening......

    You pair AD with LeBron, and quality role players will be lining up to join us. And if we have the money, players wanting to be the 3rd star will too. You get the stars first, then the rest you figure out. Kyrie didn’t win anything before teaming with LeBron either, neither did Bosh, or Love, and AD is better than all of those players. The West is tough, and AD has been the lone star on his team his entire career, and the one year he had another the guy tore his achilles and the team still won a playoff round without him.

    Crazy seeing the reaction on Reddit. All week everyone’s been saying the Lakers have no shot and NO would be dumb not to wait until the summer. But in the post for the tweet about Lakers offering Zo, Kuz, BI,and Zu everyone’s saying NO would be dumb not to take the offer now.

    That's reality. I agree. No chance the league let's this happen.

    At this point it seems we’ve done everything we can. We being, the Lakers FO, Klutch Sports, and AD. If Magic put all his chips forward and the Pels are just being super salty. then there really isn’t anything left to do, but move forward with another plan.

    Dude is annoying, and I wouldn’t consider him an insider.

    BUT, he’s been so far up Lebron’s a** for so long that he’s almost like part of his camp. He seemed pretty confident it would be Lebron to LA during the summer.

    So it’s feasible he might have heard some buzz about a AD trade. I think the more likely “surprise” is that Lebron suits up tonight.

    Or most likely, Nick Wright is full of crap and nothing significant or relevant to the Lakers goes down tonight.

    exactly

    the lakers made their offer. NO will take a few days to see what other teams have to offer and that should be it. they know what boston could offer in the offseason

    everything is right there in front of demps

    this is why I didn't put any blame on Maginka not getting Leonard deal done, Pop would've NEVER done it. Pg on the other hand, well we shouldn't have low balled them to start with that randle/clarkson offer.

    Ramona doesn’t have a crystal ball, these things can change on a dime. The Lakers can make an offer the Pelicans love, or they could find a 3rd team to get all the necessary pieces to NO, we won’t know until the deadline comes.

    Yeah, that Steve Blake wannabe lookin idiot is garbage. The stuff I've heard from his guy is nonsense. Like, what credentials do you even have to even be speaking about basketball. Your local 24 and 2k don't count.

    Dallas gets Porzingis in exchange for a salary dump and 2 picks and nobody cares.

    Lakers offer the entire young core plus picks for AD and the entire league colludes to say this shouldn’t be allowed.

    Ridiculous

    I actually like the KP to Dallas trade for both teams. NYK sets themselves up to tank this year and make a run at Zion, also gets good young player in DSJ and serviceable pieces in DJ and Wes, who can be flipped for picks or bought out. Dallas gets a shot at Dirk 2.0 to pair with possibly the most exciting rookie since Lebron. Both teams win.

    there's ALOT of potential for this to set NY back a decade IF they dont land a legit max FA or two, dont get #1 pick or even get the pick wrong.

    You know, I know the bias is huge here but I just don’t believe the young C Bags are that much better than our guys. I credit Stephens for a lot of their success.

    If nothing else, it will make Ainge wonder about Kyrie alot more. There are now 2 big market teams that have the salary room to snag him. Durant and Kyrie to NYK is far from certain, but its certainly a possibility now. Ainge playing defense is a good place for him to be as far as I am concerned.

    Sure NYK could screw up a free lunch when it comes to the draft, but honestly, drafting Nos 1 through 5 aint that hard this spring, I think even I could handle that one.

    Nick Wright deserves to burn in the deepest level of hell for all eternity. The man poisons young men's minds to look into stats instead of comprehending the game and his ridiculous statements, reasonings, and ideals.

    He probably has never played the game or played it well in his life and probably dribbles like Stanley from the Office.


    In my world, he'd die a slow death of torture till his ending days. The man does one thing and one thing well and its having lebron's privates his mouth.
