Where will Anthony Davis play next season?
Nick you petty af lol you really hate the Celtics smh
NICK BOUT TO CRY IN THE CAR BRO
This dude looooves boston
+carpiedeim Nah Boston is the greatest racist city in America that pretend that they aint racists.
Roland Koliyah walk around as a white
man in black neighbourhoods and see what happens. Some of the biggest racist in the us are black
Didn’t Ad say he wouldn’t go to the Celtics he didn’t even have them on his list
BootherJr but why would they not take the Lakers deal which is offering more.
*NEWS FLASH* It’s not up to AD where he wants to be traded since he is still under contract…
What are u talking about? AD can’t choose where he wants to go. He will be traded. Do u know how the league works? He can make a list all he wants. Pelz don’t have to accommodate him. They will trade him to wherever they want. If Boston gives them what they want then he will be in Boston til 2020 minimum.
*Lmao yep, but these losers use the Paul George situation to validate their delusion.*
I think Mannix was trolling the Lebron lover with this one
+Johnny Gleason POOR GUY🤣🤣
Mannix got owned especially at the end 😂😂😂
Naah Mannix been a Lebron Hater for a long time lmao i dont even know why
Maybe because players remember how the Celtics did IT
Did IT? IT was an awful player. He’s 5’9 and relies too much on iso. His sister’s death has nothing to do with the Celtics. Can people stop whining?
+jdigga24 nice to see someone post with some common sense! You’re 100% right! Thomas still not healthy! Genius move by Ainge
You do know the NBA is a business right? So stop with the IT nonsense
IT sucks not a max gtfoh
The Celtics homer believing this , wow what a surprise
+Gregory Hayes exactly, Ainge is telling NOLA to wait till later because Davis value will drop in the offseason when he doesnt commit to a team. Then ainge gonna lowball with brown, rozier and picks. Lol, Nola getting fleeced by Ainge.
The same guy how said the Celtics would beat LeBron last year in the playoffs and he said the Celtics could beat the warriors this year hahahahahahahah
Ronnie Alston Boston will trade him he won’t leave for nothing
+Charly Fritz They wont have to gut their roster to get AD if this happens after the trade deadline. Boston has better options to offer. But they will not offer much for a 1 year rental of AD. So therefore the Lakers will not be offering the Pelicans as much as they are offering now. They will give up some but not everything. Also not many of the Lakers players are really that much of a difference maker on a championship team while Lebron is on the team because of his playstyle. They will have cap for another max player or a few mid level all stars in free agency plus whoever they have left. It’s all up to AD. If he says he aint signing to Boston or Knicks etc then Lakers will offer up considerably less or the Pelicans can let AD walk for free or the Lakers wait another year for AD to come via free agency while still signing another max player and/or other allstars.
+Black Prizm What? You just said yourself that not many Lakers players have much to offer but somehow they will offer less in the summer? You also say that the Lakers can just wait another year and get AD in free agency, that’s nonsense as well since Lebron will be 36 by then and the Lakers are on a the clock lol. And by the way Boston is just 1 example, there are 28 other teams that can make an offer and by your own wown words the Lakers don’t have a lot of players with much to offer smh
So let me get this straight they trade Tatum and picks and maybe two more player for a one year player who says he not resigning if it’s not the lakers and kyrie might leave I’m lost
Coach Dude right kyrie leaving and now it’s to the point why did you give up IT for a three year dude
+BigHomieMEP because the Celtics knew better than anyone that his health wasn’t the best. I don’t think they knew just how bad it was, but mainly it went down because if you get a chance to sign a Super Star to your organization, your gonna take it, ecspecially if your Boston and can afford it.
+Tomb413 Exactly. Idc what anyone says or how players feel, when you start winning, you start loving that team.
When was the last time Chris Mannix was right about anything? 😂😂😂
He’s right bout AD having a better chance wining a championship with the Celtics then the Lakers
when was the last time Nick ‘cavs in 5’ was right about anything?
He’ll be right in July when AD is a Celtic!!!
The Graen Reactor and would be wrong when AD leaves
How can he be right if it did not happen yet? Kyrie might even leave you Celtic Fans crying in the summer. 😂
If u not woj then i dont believe you😂 aint he a celtics fan?👀😑
+Danny P im a nets fan, there’s no reason for me to hate the celtics
+Josh McCown is old ya u do lmao nets fans hate the celtics for the finesse they did to their team
Danny P change your pic kyrie leaving
C Jizzle B.M.G. Facts
Ain’t nick a lebron fan they both trying to get AD to there team
Chris Mannix has some sort of love affair with Danny Ainge, what doesn’t he understand? AD basically said he wanted to be a Laker and that he wouldn’t re-sign if he were to be traded to the Celtics so why would Danny Ainge give anything up for a guy who doesn’t want to be there plus we all know that Danny Ainge is a gm who will do anything in his power to better his chances at winning a ring even if that means back stabbing his players so that doesn’t exactly better the Celtics chances at getting AD
As for Brooklyn, it wasn’t like KG and Paul Pierce fell off a cliff. It was overestimating their own players and potential. Deron got a massive contract and stop producing and then the team was apathetic outside of Pierce and Garnett which caused them to implode. Ainge can’t be completely held responsible for other teams overestimating their roster and giving them pieces everyone in the NBA thought the Nets needed. As for other trades, Ainge has indeed fleeced teams like Suns for IT then flipping him for Kyrie. I still think his acquisition of IT is the most underrated move by Ainge as he gave Thornton and a late cavs 1st round pick for IT who then became a staple and 30 ppg scorer. Overall, you are correct though. Teams do need to be careful when trading with Ainge as he has consistently done well to maneuver pieces to fall in his favor.
+Hooks J IT & Fultz is ijury prone 😂 Because of genius of ainge they get Erving & Tatum. Are you serious D-Williams play the nets in he’s prime. Look the stats of D-Will compare to KG & Paul pierce in nets uniform. Why former nets GM billy king regrets KG & Paul Pirece trade to nets. Now why Dell damps trust Danny Ainge. https://amp-si-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/amp.si.com/nba/2018/11/16/billy-king-trade-nets-celtics-kevin-garnett-paul-pierce-pick-haul-2013?amp_js_v=a2&_gsa=1&usqp=mq331AQCCAA%3D#referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com&_tf=From%20%251%24s&share=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.si.com%2Fnba%2F2018%2F11%2F16%2Fbilly-king-trade-nets-celtics-kevin-garnett-paul-pierce-pick-haul-2013
ainge will trade for AD IF they first sign kyrie. A legit chance at a championship, even for one year, is worth the risk.
+Tomb413 KG didn’t want to be in Boston because he wanted to win in Minnesota. It’s not the same as Anthony Davis.
celtics have won 1 championship in the last 30 years. Why do people think the Celtics pedigree matters to the young players in the NBA?
Arthas Menethil Boston have 17 14 came before 1980 in the past 40 years LA been the better franchise
Ronnie Alston without a doubt in the modern era, but they did have 9 straight which regardless of time is still very impressive. The Yankees have 27, but most of them came before the 70’s. The Red Sox have 5 I think since 2004. But I would still consider the Yankees a greater franchise. Plus basketball was invented in MA, and that’s where the hall of fame is. So it’s close, but if the Celtics win a couple chips before the Lakers now I would have to give them the edge. But right now it’s probably the Lakers. And I fear the worst might happen for the Lakers with this entire Lebron experiment. They won’t get to the playoffs this year, the Celtics will trade for AD. Kyrie is his close friend, and he will tell Him
Lebron is a snake and doesn’t care about him just wants to use him. No free agents stars want to play with him, he gets hurt and old. And then he leaves not winning anything at 38 years old. And they become the Dallas Cowboys of the NBA. For years to come.
Arthas Menethil yeah but they won 8 striaght when there was less than 10 Teams in the League also LA definitely the greater Franchise because yes they have 1 more ring then the Lakers but when it comes to great players LA have 5 of the top 10-12 Greatest players ever and that don’t include the other great players the Celtics have 2 in the Top 10-12
True but I believe the Celtics have a couple more HOF. But the reason the Lakers have been a complete joke since 2012 is the passing of Jerry Buss, and phill Jackson, and Jerry West leaving. Jeanie Buss, and Magic are mediocre managers/owners. Wyk, and Danny Ainge plus Brad Stevens is much much better management than the Lakers. That’s why the patriots have become the best dynasty in nfl history, fantastic owner, best head coach of all time, and greatest qb of all time. The lakers had the best management in the NBA and now they are mediocre and that’s what helps create dynasties. Boston has the best management now then probably golden state which did a fantastic job at drafting, and signing free agents. Toronto is also very good. But Lakers and Knicks are baaad.
Lmao Mannix is getting so triggered with his Boston homerism 😂
So ESPN should be charged with tampering.
Getting called out for hometown bias. I wouldn’t be surprised if he claim Boston is keeping Kyrie, getting AD, and then KD signs(for was less than the max) to play with them. “Because of Boston’s heritage from +30years ago”
Nick Wright is doing the same thing for the Lakers
Chris mannix believing Anthony Davis is gonna be a Celtic surprise surprise
At the end of the day Ainge is not gonna give up his assets; why, he knows AD will only play one year with the Celtics and then go to LA…. everybody’s wasting time and energy on this (including me) – regardless of what happens, AD is going to Tinseltown (Ainge knows it deep down inside)… and if he does the pull trigger….
ESPN everybody like hating scumbags. And Paul POS gets away with tampering everyday on tv. Fk you all
Why not.. the lakers already pullout kn trade talks..
+R. Fazor if danny gets ad he wont go to la after a year big stars dont like jumping around like that trust me
+NoCap 757 Lebron’s been jumping around!
lol this guy is a joke. Hes not credible for anything…
kevin kwak More credible than nick Wright
Punit Modi Mannix is never right about anything. Nick constantly reminds us Lebron is the best player in the league and it’s a little too much fanboyism, but he’s not wrong.
juju 32 yeah but nick wright isn’t objective either, everything he says basically either supports lebron or dismantles warriors. His entire motivation in any basketball is how it effects lebron or how it helps lebron.
KD was right about the circus that surrounds playing with Bron….
Michael Mazzocco Every team isn’t trying to give up the house for AD. Everyone knows AD wants to be in LA. This has been known since he signed with Klutch sports and Rich Paul. LeBron and Rich grew up together and are friends and LeBron also has stake in Klutch. I mean I don’t know how you can ask what does LeBron have to do with it?
Michael Mazzocco , did you not watch the video?
Did you not see that this video was about the Celtics and the Pelicans, yet somehow the Lakers were brought up by the analysts?
T Sanders is correct. Durant was not lying.
But I don’t expect LeBron Fanboys to understand that.
Kelvin Guerrero
My previous comment applies to you as well.
Hmm. A Boston insider thinking Boston will get AD. Who saw that coming?
Eile Except we got more than enough evidence that AD prefer LA
+TheRedemptionRain AD doesn’t matter. They don’t need care about his feeling when make the trade.
+Eile They will when AD doesn’t resign.
Eile THEY WILL… DAVIS LEAVES KYRIE IS NO LONGER A CELTIC MAYBE TATUM IS GONE WITH BROWN. Yeah if I was a Celtic fan who made the conference Finals last year with young and very good core players, I will be vomiting.
Lakers would be fools to mortgage their future for Davis. And Pelicans would be fools to believe Ainge will mortgage the Celtics’ future.
MrRufusRToyota they only have Tatum who else on that team would you get for ad
MrRufusRToyota : What future??? A bunch of nobodys, other than Kuzma??? Rufus please!
My friend it’s only about being a buthurt to any team in the West. Not about draft picks or better players. West will only trade to the East point blank.
MrRufusRToyota they don’t need to mortgage the team to get him they have a lot of picks.
Why would anyone want to play in Boston? They’ve had one ring in the last 30+ years…..
Might as well say the Pistons are a Championship organization too
Celtics literally won in 2008…. 😆 they have the most banners in the Nba too lol, do you even know basketball?
Boston’s the greatest sports city in the world.
Boston have more titles than anyone else that’s why plus rn they have one of the top 3-4 rosters in the NBA rn
+ryan123dxable you obviously don’t understand what he’s trying to say. Won a mjaority of those championships in a league with 8 teams and the weakest era of basketball outside the 70s
jaydexe you can’t judge players and teams for the era that they played in, Celtics and lakers are the biggest franchises and teams in the NBA if I was a pro player I’d want to play for them
Chris Mannix is full if BS and just pushing the Celtics narrative for Danny Ainge, gtfoh!
Nicolas brick how would this help the Celtics… ur reaching
He was getting Triggered when they talked bout celtics lmap
everyone else pushing Lakers narrative for Magic, LeBron and Rich Paul tho…..
+Joel Filomeno Rich Paul, AD’s AGENT, is pushing the Lakers…which means AD is pushing the Lakers. That’s why everyone is pushing the Lakers…BECAUSE HE IS. Wow, people are really stupid
I’m starting to think celtics fans are almost as delusional as cowboys fans
I mean, if you asked them they’d say losing 8 straight times to LeBron in the East is better than LeBron making the Finals 8 straight times and winning 3 titles.
