Jackie McMullen:

We have been told, I think, through channels – most of us have heard this same scuttlebutt – that Gayle Benson has basically told him, “To the Lakers, over my dead body.”


Jackie is extremely reliable imo. But I do feel like this is the kind of thing to leak from elsewhere, not us.

Lakers Championships - 16

Pelicans/Hornets Championships - 0


Good idea to not trade with the team that may have the best offer. If Boston doesn't offer Tatum and the Knicks balk at take back salary then the Lakers offer may be the best

How are you still allowed to troll on this board?

This about the small market push back against this new player empowerment movement. She has to send a message, not only for the NOP, but for the other small market teams as well. The NOP not so secretly have the backing of multiple other organizations that were disgusted by the Klutch and Magic ploy.

I wonder how far she’s willing to take it though? If the Lakers offer is overwhelmingly the best offer, would the organization change their tune or is there now too much at stake?

If the “best offer” isn’t good enough, we hold him and go into the regular season with him.

It’s a risk but so is taking a pupu platter of crap you don’t want on the assumption you flip it for better pieces.

I really hope that Zion does not pick Klutch. That would be bad.

Why should the Pels contribute to #17?

Hopefully, this "news" only motivates the Clippers more to get into the mix.

I assume this is coming from LA to put pressure on us to come to the table. Would be dumb as frick if this came from the pels.





frick I hope this didn't come from us.

Given the current state of the Lakers, we could give them AD, Jrue, Zion, and all our future picks and they would find a way to frick it up.

Listening to the interview with Zion’s father, it doesn’t sound like Klutch would be the type of operation they would want to affiliate with

It's the right stance to have, but the wrong thing to say.

Hopefully this gets exposed as leaking from the Lakers/AD/Klutch camp and blows up in their face...again.

As a Lakers fan and also someone who roots for the Pelicans- my personal hope is.

1. Davis signs the Supermax with the Pelicans and they begin a new dynasty.

2. Davis does not get traded to the Celtics

3. Davis gets traded to the Lakers.



I would prefer Kawhi Leonard and the youth along with James over gutting the team for Davis.
