re: Has any "Super Star" ever been scammed as much as AD

I wish AD nothing but the worst.
It will be hard for anyone to make me dislike them more than Davis.
The only thing I could see topping this is if Zion pulls a similar stunt or god forbid, Jrue shatters everything I think about him as a human being (like gets arrested for domestic violence or something).
Only then, it’s because the higher you are, the further the fall. AD had always seemed like a decent guy, so this one sucked, but Zion/Jrue give off an entirely different vibe. AD has always been a decent dude with a little primadonna (I don’t want to play 5, you drafted Nerlens Noel?!, Etc). I don’t want to downplay the efforts Davis put in NOLA at times, but goddamn getting swindled by Lebron James, one of my least favorite personalities of all time, is just a knife to the gut. Quitting on the team. All of this bullshite.
We had a team talented enough to do some damage last year. With the injury to KD, I think it’s very feasible the 17-18 version of the Pelicans could have beaten the Warriors. The West was weak last year, we returned the playoff team minus Rondo plus Payton/Kenrich/Randle.
I’m unbelievably satisfied with the end results. I mean we landed Zion, how can you not be? But as we keep learning more and we see how the West was won this year, Davis really pissed away a golden opportunity for his brand, the franchise, the fans...all for Lebron James because LBJ needed him or the Lakers situation was going to be a waste of the last few years of his career according to LBJ.
