real draw to this deal is yall are getting out of solomon hills contract which i doubt anyone else would be willing to take on


But getting out of that contract doesn't really matter when we aren't contending for the foreseeable future.

Lakers president Magic Johnson has New Orleans engaged in talks on Anthony Davis, but must still overcome significant support within the Pelicans organization to let Thursday's trade deadline expire with the All-Star remaining on the roster.

After talking to NBA people I can’t get read on if Pelicans intend to let trade deadline come & go, wait till summer or if they get deal done w/Lakers.
Either way, LaVar’s comments have “hurt talks” I’m told.
So here’s new deal I came up with.
ORL also gets two #1’s from Lakers.

Fletcher loves to fire up retarded trades in the espn trade machine.

Fletcher can be good for breaking news from inside the Pelicans. Disregard everything else he has to say.

My next question was going to be "Does he have a history of drug abuse?"

Fletch can be good for breaking news? Wtf. I’m not sure what Johnny is smokin.

Fletch is something of a running joke and one of the least connected guys. But at least he actually covers the team. He has no legit sources.

If you’re looking for legit Pels info, it’s Kushner or Stein. Woj has no legit inside sources with the Pels, his info comes from other teams.

Danny Ainge has encouraged the Pelicans to wait until the offseason to negotiate with the Celtics. Boston remains determined to try and partner Anthony Davis with Kyrie Irving for long-term, but plans to pursue AD regardless of Irving's free agency plans, per sources.

Milwaukee is interesting in that its legit only a 30 minute helicopter flight from his beloved Chicago. The drive sucks arse though.

Yes. So far, the Lakers have felt conversations with New Orleans have been one-sided and they are growing increasingly pessimistic about the Pelicans willingness to do a deal with them.

Yeah the worst thing about the NBA is this sense that people have that small market teams owe it to big market teams to just do their bidding whenever they want.

Milwaukee doesn't really have the pieces.

Agree. I think the Pellies have got to wait until the lottery to see where the Knicks land.

It's almost as if we are humoring the Lakers and will let the deadline pass and then open things up this summer.

I wonder who has been saying that...

Jabba has spoken. Maybe Laker fans will listen now

Pelicans have never had any intention of doing a deal with LaL. Nor will they. They are there for show.

It's NYK or Boston. Always has been.
