I think Boston has the best package to offer, but it seems like they may be out of the running? Tatum + Brown + Smart + Memphis 1st >>>> other packages easy in my eyes

People really don't understand how valuable a unprotected lottery pick from Memphis is.

Robinson is better than all your half baked goods and makes way more sense than a bunch of glorified 6th men pretending to be starters.
:francis:

There needs to be a more sophisticated neg system. This is just a completely awful take. Imagine taking Mitchell Robinson over Brandon Ingram with a straight face.

Celtics trading for AD would be the stupidests thing they could do. How abundunatly clear does he have to say Boston ain't it. Its even more baffling for our fans who want the trade. Unless its for unloading Hayward. Even then leave Brown and Tatum outta your plans.

If your AD's agent...what do you think is better, joing the Lakers/Knicks next year as a free agent or gutting the assets this year to joun.

When you think about it, AD demanding a trade with a year left makes no sense. Any team he goes to will have to gut significant assets to retain him. After the melo debacle, its fairly obvious as a player that it's better to wait a year than to gut out a team in a trade. The only person that benefits from this timeline is lebron James.

Once LeBron inevitably falls off and leaves AD there with a bunch of minimum level vets and Josh hart, AD gonna realize how LeBron and Rich Paul used his ass to try and boost bron legacy. I predict Adam silver will begin banning player's owning player agencies while in the league cause it's a clear conflict of interest.

All this to turn down 80million.

Alvin Gentry saw through this bullshyt

the nba already investigated if lebron had an ownership stake in klutch sports and determined he did not. they obviously have deep ties and you can certainly say theres a conflict of interest or collusion, but theres nothing the nba can do. you can also say the same thing about any agent who has a prominent client who is obviously more important to him.

klutch made a power play to try and force a trade before the last deadline, it failed and made anthony davis look bad. if they would have waited until after the season davis would have avoided almost all the bad pr. from a lakers perspective though, they'd rather make a trade because by the time davis hits free agency lebron will be another year older and they wont have the cap room to sign another max guy. now if theyre unable to entice another star to join then davis probably hasnt improved his long term situation. in the end this whole debacle actually worked out in their favor because without it maybe they end up with a much worse draft pick than no.1.

Lol, Klutch is partly LeBron's company. He just crossed his t's and dotted his i's.

Bro, please stop. Lebron is the reason Rich Paul even has an agency experience when he worked under Leon rose at CAA. Also where do you think Rich Paul got the funds to start an agency?
