Great discussion of potential trade for Anthony Davis.... We lose Kuzma, Ball, & Hart for Anthony Davis. We keep Ingram & Randal but our bench is totally annihilated with this and the trades to Cleveland that has been made

With 15mil or so left to resign Randle and give the rest to PG....I'll pass. Rather keep the squad and go after 2max free agents.

If Davis comes in, better give them Randle back.

Despite that Davis would turn this team momentarily around, the described price is too high. Pass.

I love Davis' game. But he's so prone to injury it would give me pause to give up that much for him.

Our youth movement would be gone. We've sent out DLO, JC & Nance. Add Lonzo, Kuzma & Hart? That would be 6 young players with talent.

I've seen what those 4 new players have done for the Cav's, I think we need to wait on the FA's...

Posted this more at length in the thread about asking which 2 players we'd want to team up, but I wonder what people would think if we could team up all 3 of LeBron/AD/PG, while losing Ball and Ingram (and Deng's salary) but keeping Randle and Kuzma and Hart. It would be possible to do that if PG didn't opt out and got traded here. Oh, and that pesky part about the Pelicans trading Davis for Deng, Ball, and Ingram. And possibly a pick or two.

Deal got delt wit. JK
Like a few people already mentioned, AD is younger than Nance and Clarkson.

It's like when someone posted a thread the day of the DLO trade saying, "today we threw our youth movement out the window" But in reality, all we did was managed to become the youngest team in the NBA. We have rookies left and right, but if it's not DLO then it doesn't count I guess.

That's not my point guys. What I'm saying is that AD would be here with Randle & Ingram? We wouldn't have trade away all the rest of our resources ? Then what ? a bunch of scrubs to fill the holes?

Another way to go could be really fighting for our Star FA. I know, no one is actually offering AD, I'm just saying we may be one star away from actually competing whil developing our youth.

The Open Floor, from SI, podcast has a great take on this in their latest episode.

Basically said "Everyone says Boston is the prime spot for Davis, but the Lakers can actually provide a better package. If PG and Lebron are here, what better way to complete the Big 3 than with AD". And the hosts aren't pro-or-anti Lakers or Celtics, just telling it like it is.

Many fans are way to impatient. What if the Warriors traded Curry early on because he was small and had bad ankles ect.

Just hang on and enjoy the ride with your young crew. They are getting better!

so many ifs

Will Lebron leave Cleveland

Will PG13 leave OKC

Will NOL even take a phone call

Lebron will play how many years more

Since AD is a PF, Randle is coming off the bench?

Which quality PG will take a serious salary discount to play for the Lakers

Who will play the 5

These Superstars will have to play major minutes because of the lack of a quality bench that leads into injuries

If Lebron plays only one season, then what
