AD has no killer instinct


It's really disappointing

Pels should deal him to Boston if you can get the Brown/Tatum/Horford/pics deal. He's not winning in NOLA. Move him before it's too late.

Brown, Tatum and those picks would come down here and underperform

It's a culture problem, not players. Look at all the guys who left Boston in the Kyrie trade. They mostly suck now

I am really high on Tatum. He ends up being a stud. Right now you could get him young. Brown too.

I just see the Pels ending up losing Davis with nothing to show for it, which would be a waste of 7-8 years.

I agree with those dudes being studs... But AD is a stud, and they haven't done shite

This organization is the problem is what I'm trying to say. They had 2 top 10 players in the league and we're fighting to stick around the 6 seed. There's no leadership, structure, etc. Until that's fixed it doesn't matter who is on the floor

We are talking about the premise of AD not being a killer. He's never proven to be. It took Cousins being an Alpha for the Pels to move up in the standings. So either you think cousins resigns AND fully recovers, you get another alpha next to AD (unlikely) or you keep AD and hope he gets that killer instinct and stays instead of bolting like most players do these days to at with another superstar.

Trading AD would be a huge mistake. I wouldn’t trade for any Boston players. Stevens uses them to their max abilities and there’s a fast track record established of players leaving his system and losing about twenty percent.

AD is a stud upon studs. He’s still young. His game is expanding. They have put zero pieces around him. Cousins was great but the fact that Jrue Holliday this year is the best guard AD has played with in a perimeter driven league is a travesty. They’ve consistently had to run out g league players to given them any semblance of depth.

Sign and Trade boogie for as many competent players as you can get. A haul similar to what the Cavs got for IT. The pels need three more rotation players.

It's not just Boston players. They have Lakers and Memphis 1sts in next two years.

Tatum is bonafide. Smart is a nice piece. Hit the reset button, it's time.

Nooope. Hitting the reset button doesn’t include trading a superstar before he hits his prime. None of those players have ADs upside.

They need to make moves to get cap flexibility right now. Out of ajinca. Finally got rid of asik. They need guards.

He's going to demand a trade by next year if the Pels miss the playoffs again.

How? They don't have any assets. They have had all these years and they have 1 8th seed sweep to show for it.

I hate the Pels fans on this board but I honestly root for them to do well. It's just frustrating to watch them waste away AD with no plan. Boogie fell in their lap and they were so unfortunate with that injury. I think dealing AD and building through the draft is their best bet. But I see where you are coming from.

If they can trade away asik they can trade away anyone.

look port you know you I don’t care about the pels. You just don’t trade a player of AD’s caliber. He’s not an all star. He’s a potential MVP candidate. You can’t replace him. Not even with draft picks. When AD goes this team goes to the cellar. There is no Kong’s ransom. There’s no rebuild.

the best plan is trying to make any move to please him and keep him happy. they’ve had some bad luck the last few years. But the team has improved.
