AD wants out in NOLA

[cjr3888]

Where did you see this?

NBC Sports Chicago reporter it but now the Phoenix media is saying there’s mutual interest between Ball and the Suns

[CajunT]

Ball is already saying he wants the Lakers to get either Chicago or New York involved so he goes to one of those instead of New Orleans. Pelicans will wait it out until the Celtics can get involved so they get the best possible deal.

Agreed! Davis is on contract for another season, they should wait until the summer when the Celtics can get involved and maximize their efforts. There is no need to rush to get a trade done by the deadline next week. In fact, after the way Davis and his agent have handled this I damn sure wouldn't do it right now, especially to the Lakers.

Yes. The Celtics are assuring them that they will get better value from the Celtics than anyone else if we wait and that's what we should do. That's the Celtics issue if he does make true on his word and bolt after a year to L.A. If Tatum, Rozier, Brown and handful of picks are what we get, I'm singing Happy Trails to AD.

Well, the first "offer" came in this morning. What a slap in the face. The Pels should just end communication with the Lakers until the end of the season.

I wish David Stern was still the commish. He would butch slap Klutch and the Lakers.

If the Pelicans can get a better deal from the Celtics, they should do so. Not only would the deal probably be better, but AD would be in the East rather than the West, thus not having to face him as many times during the season.

Adam Silver should veto any trade to the Lakers due to tampering but he is a Bish ..... Pels need to do the right thing and send AD to Boston

100% agree!

[CajunEXPRESS]

LeBron can interfere, he did it to put Miami together. Granted there’s not an arms length between him and management. Is this Lakers tampering? If so Silver indeed should block Lakers.

[zephyr]

So much for only wanting to go to large media markets. Like I said earlier Express, large markets can be defined by multiple criteria, not just your media exposure. AD is now saying that amongst the teams he's willing to go to, the Milwaukee Bucks are one of them. They have a youthful, good team centered around Giannis the Greek Freak.
