So Davis by himself is 0-6. In order to get him we'd need to trade all of our young assets.

So we go from a balanced 3-3 team to an 0-6 team with one star?

That is the problem, though, you cannot ignore injury with him. And I really doubt NO is looking to trade him anytime soon. I didn't really agree with the contracts they gave Hill and Moore, but I doubt they signed them as potential running mates with Davis only to then trade Davis. I wouldn't be surprised if one of them were available in trade.


Word was Hill chose NO over the same offer from the Lakers based on a promised starting gig. I wonder if the UofA product still interests LA who upped their free agent offer to Deng once Hill was off the table.

I suppose you also have the issue of what kind of deal it would take.

Or, the Raptors are 4-1. They won 56 games last year.

We can trade all of our team for the Raptors team. We'd have a nucleus of Derozan and Kyle Lowry....

If records are important, there you go....

Hell no. Three potential all stars for one superstar is too rich for my blood, especially since Davis is somewhat injury prone. The most I'd give up is

Randle/Ingram/Clarkson/Zubac

Leaving us with

Russell
Young
Deng
Nance
Davis

greatly depleted bench...meh. Stick to the rebuild. If the Pelicans are serious about trading him, they won't get a better package than the above. But I think that's a bit too much, even for Davis.

Once you start w/ "the most I'd give up..."

Pretty much there's no deal.

Davis is going to cost you a package that you really don't want to part with...

That's like going to Bora Bora and saying "the most I'm going to pay for a room is $200..."

Well, you're not going to get that nice of a room.......

Garbage sources and no thanks. It would take way too much to get him, especially more than we would be comfortable parting with.

Those sentiments might be reversed if we drafted Davis and he became a 23 year old superstar for us.

Probably wouldn't trade him for some other team's 3 prospects...

Let's say Ingram develops into Anthony Davis. Same stats, same game by the age of 23; w/ the same injury concerns.

Would you be willing to trade him for some teams 3 top prospects when he's 23?


Pelicans aren't going to be successful trading him because they'll want everything. "Smart" teams won't give the sun and moon for an often injured player who's stats doesn't effect wining. Plus, you guys are debating over an Inquisitr rumor.

They probably couldn't do better than Ingram/Randle/Clarkson/Zubac. But honestly that might be too rich for my blood. Ingram and Randle are going to be studs in a couple years. You're giving up star power AND depth.

For the record I put no stock in this rumor but...

I wouldn't do it. We'll gut the team to get him and essentially turn ourselves into the Pelicans. If we put in draft picks we could find ourselves in a worse position.

Also think about this. Russell, Randle, & Ingram are all going to get paid. Probably max players or close to it.

That's $70 mil per year for all 3?

Davis makes $23 mil to $28 mil for the next 5 years.

Once you start paying your players, you're pretty much locked into that core. Look at OKC. That's it for them.

They locked up Adams, Oladipo, Kanter. That's it. That's their future for awhile.

In order to win a championship you need a top 5 player. So either Russell, Randle, or Ingram becomes a top 5 player or we sign a top 5 free agent. It's unlikely we can sign a top 5 free agent in his prime.

Once this core 3 starts getting paid, we won't have the cap space to sign a top 5 free agency type player.

In Davis, you have a top 5 player.

Lakers have the start of something special.

Stay the course and give the young core a couple years to develop together.

Davis would cost too high a price. If any truth at all of a trade, it is more then the Lakers can afford to give away.

If Ingram develops into Anthony Davis, would you be willing to trade him for a boatload of prospects at the age of 23?

Great source lol. AD is locked for longterm and isn't going anywhere. They will sack the coach and try different things as Sac have been doing. Why would they trade a guy who got them into playoffs and has a longterm deal? They effed up hiring Genrty and will get rid of him soon.

Inb4 moved to Trade forum.

And what makes you think NEO will trade Brow? Are they dumb when they made playoffs only a year ago? They will get rid of the coach.

Anthony Davis with middle of the road talent put us in the exact same position the Pelicans are in right now. I'll pass on that. However Anthony Davis on this team with our young Talent could be something special. So that's what you go for. So if we want to do that let's make ourselves a playoff team within the next two seasons. So when Anthony Davis is a free agent we can actually be an option to add him to the core we already have it is ready to break out by storm. That is the best way to go about it as opposed to doing what the Knicks would do and mortgage their entire young core just to get Anthony Davis and not changing the situation or their record one bit.

If Ingram were Davis, that is, an injury prone star who doesn't have as much impact as you would like, then yes I'd quite possibly trade him for another team's equivalent of DLO/Randle/Clarkson. If Davis had real superstar impact then that's a different story, but like I said, he looks a lot more like 2010 Kevin Love than he does 2006 Kobe.

Great. Now all that needs to happen: NOL ownership goes bankrupt, Silver just takes over the team, and ladies and gents I give you "Basketball Reasons Part Deux". Boy, repeating the last 4 years is gonna be so much fun.

No, it doesn't matter since we would have to trade half our roster to get him. We all know the easiest way to win is to get players in free agency. Building through the draft is tough not to mention its a very lengthy process. You give up nothing but gain a player like a superstar if the situation is right in free agency The real legitimate superstars hold all the power in the free agent market.

Don't forget that today's players if they are dead set to go to a particular team they will leave thru free agency. They have their own power in that they can refuse to sign an extension even if they are traded.
