Griffin is on a conference call today announcing Swin Cash. Jake Madison reported this little nugget for our over analysis

Griffin on the AD trade request: "It's not something there is a shot clock on"

He also said he doesn't anticipate anything between now and the draft happening.


That time frame doesn't preclude a draft night agreement, but to me it sounds like he's trying to put pressure on teams to get a deal he likes or he'll wait.

Winning Zion really changed everything. Yes you'd like a maximum return on AD, but you don't desperately need it any more so you can play chicken with other teams and still be ok.

ETA: Andrew Lopez with the full quote.

Full quote here from David Griffin about any potential Anthony Davis deal coming before the Draft.

He tries to downplay the timetable part.

Yeah, if the offers don’t come in, AD might be more valuable as a one year rental to the Pelicans tbh.

All these rumours and leaks seem to conclude that AD is crying over the fact Lakers and Knicks do not have the assets to get him.

I will think its comical, but unlikely, if we go into the season with AD on the bench and wait until a playoff team makes a post all star break trade offer.
