Anthony Davis is said to be on the block now.

[Kblaze8855]

Yeah but I just dont know how keen teams are to try these 2 Center (which Davis is) experiments midseason.

Not saying they cant work but I think theyre ideal with a full season's runway. And AD aint gettin any younger. If youre gonna trade for him it's probably to contend this year, not to wait til his body's another year older.

I just dont know that Miami is incentivized to give up Ware for Davis. Theres too many unknowns. Pairing Bam and AD midseason AND hoping Davis stays healthy is not a slam dunk by any means IMO. Unless Riles knows has plans to retire in the next two years and wants to take one last wild swing beforehand. But I think it's got a dubious chance of success.

If two bigs is a concern they wouldn’t value ware to begin with unless they view bam as a trade piece. But they could have landed multiple superstars by now if they dick intend to keep him.

I think the feasibility comes down to if they think they can land Giannis now that Luka is off the table

Luka doesnt really fit the heat culture

It's different when you can add a guy with a mid first round pick making rookie deal money versus giving up two young pieces (Herro was just an allstar last year) to take back a guy making 54 million a year. Youre really investing a ton in something that has long odds of working right away. If he doesnt click with Bam theyre just fooked. I would be interested to see it as a viewer but I dont think it's a gamble I would take for that team right now.

I think the two-center stuff is interesting and has potential around the league, but that's when one of the centers is a low risk acquisition. Steven Adams, Mitchell Robinson, Jonas Valanciunus. Luke Kornet. You trade a second rounder for them and/or sign them for role player money, then see how they fit with your star center. Trading Herro and Ware for Davis when you already have Bam is just too radical. And Davis makes 54 million a year, bringing him in to play only 20 minutes a night... I dont think the Heat are goin for that. Theres just no way.

Dallas Mavericks minority owner Mark Cuban told The Athletic the franchise would not try to trade Anthony Davis this season. “We won’t. We want to try to win,” Cuban said Wednesday in an email when asked if he and Mavericks governor Patrick Dumont would seek a deal for Davis, the oft-injured, 10-time All-Star who was the centerpiece for Dallas in last season’s Luka Dončić trade.

Good luck mark

To Houston makes sense or GS or Chicago or NYK

Ny or chicago maybe because they have centers that stretch the floor which davis doesnt and he has to play the 4!

[John8204]

The only options are Zion, Trae, or Ja...and really which team is going to take the AD problem

[bdonovan]

I'd love to see AD go to the Warriors but I'm not sure we have anyone they want. I'd offer Kuminga (potential future all-star), two of our guards (from: Moody, Podziemski, Payton, Hield), and future draft picks. If the Mavs are building for the future, those young guys might be valuable.

[ImKobe]

Lol. Never took you for a mornin drinker.

Two core pieces of Denver's future on value contracts just entering their prime for a guy who never plays?

I think youre way overestimating this dudes trade value.

The guy never plays. I dont see teams giving up real things for him. And yes, some insane team probably will, but I dont see it being the Nuggets. Theyre too measured. It would have to come from an overzealous owner, like Mat Ishbia or Steve Ballmer. Owners who believe they can "will" bad questionable decisions to work out.

Is he? Lakers got Luka for him, Christie and a 1st, so I'd say his value is pretty damn high, even with the injuries. He's an incredible performer in the Playoffs.

He has nagging injuries sure, but you can load manage him for around 50-60 games a year and get an elite performance out of him come Playoff time against the best teams in the league. He doesn't have a bad knee or a bad back, he has small injuries like pulling his groin or calf, he definitely needs to drop a few pounds but he's still a top 5-10 player in the league when healthy and there's only so many guys who can play at that level. He doesn't make sense for Denver but there will be a number of teams that will offer a lot for him.

In a move nobody criticized either, the consensus was the Mavs got good value back on that trade. It moved Nico into the convo of best GM's in the league, a title I'm sure he'll hold for quite some time.

[Axe]

Is it true that ayton now has around the same or more minutes played with the lakers since this season started than what davis has with the mavs since getting traded there earlier this year?

petty and stupid

Who plays center? Davis is a 4 as far as he is concerned. Who is the big stretching the floor next to him since he doesnt? Dont see the fit other than another old guy that cant stay on the floor

[jayfan]

Detroit has plenty of space. A healthy AD (big if, as always) teamed with Cade, and with the way that team plays, & how they've been playing, would be a scary prospect for the rest of the league.

Wouldnt mess up the pistons with crutch

We have Post and Horford to give him a breather at the position.
