He doesn't know. It really sounds like a Knicks leak aimed at scaring Boston off forcing the Pels to take the Knicks deal now.

I’d still probably take it. There’s a clear 1 in this draft, but RJ and Morant are both very good prospects. Big drop off after

Because the players have enough power to block it and the Owners are afraid to pay the best players what they're actually worth.

Leak that shite considering AD’s whole thing is that “It’s my time” and he wants to compete every year, yet he doesn’t want to play on arguably the most talented team outside of Golden State.



Like I said before the fake Chicago/Phoenix tweet, we can pretty much guess.

The largest of large markets, or teams that already great or have superstars that can't offer us shite.

The only thing that matters is the list is expanding.

Think how much it will expand in June.

If the Knicks get #3, I only make they deal on draft night once they are on the board and we know who we are getting.

Trading for #3 before you know who is left is like having unprotected sex. It may feel good and work out well but there’s a high chance of shite going wrong long term.

New Orleans rejected the Knicks on a Porzingis offer recently, and likely don't have the assets to gain the Pelicans' interest unless they defy the odds on a 12 percent chance in the draft lottery to get the No. 1 overall pick in the June draft.

That’s PR bullshite to counter the Klutch/selfishness narrative. He can say see I had the lowly Bucks on my list because I just want to win knowing the entire time that the Bucks have no way logistically speaking to make that happen.

It’s still LA or NY.

Right. If they want a trade now instead of this summer then including Boston on the list is counter productive since they won't trade for him now. He may actually be fine with Boston, but why give the Pels an excuse to keep him past the deadline?

Doesn’t the worst record have a 14% chance? Either way, using “defy the odds” seems a little much in this scenario.

Uh duh.

Like I said on the MSB, he's expanded from 1 to 4 after a week.

What will that list look like in June when he's forced to contemplate sitting out an entire season.

Bet it will go from 4 to 14.

The Lakers have offered a new package to New Orleans that includes multiple young players, multiple draft picks and Pelicans salary cap relief for Anthony Davis, league sources tell ESPN. The offer appears to move closer to the objectives that the Pelicans are pursuing in a deal.
