Anthony Davis is said to be on the block now.

[warriorfan]

Nobody ever said he was traded without approval from the owner. Stop speaking so confidently about a situation that you clearly haven't looked into much, not that I should expect anything else from you except utterly confident ignorance.

So you understand, even though you will still refuse to believe what factually happened because your stupidity and overconfidence is set in stone, here's the exact order of how it went down.

1) Cuban hires idiotic ego maniac with the stupid idea that it was for player relations primarily and Cuban would still run basketball
2) Cuban sells team to someone who knows 0 about basketball under the condition Cuban would still run basketball
3) Idiotic ego maniac gets in the ignorant owner's ear and pushes Cuban out
4) Idiotic ego maniac trades Luka and rushes it through without opening up bidding because ignorant owner would see the fan and journalistic backlash and know how stupid it was
5) People on the internet that believe everything is a lie and a conspiracy think Nico was just a fall guy

Nico Harrison is an overly confident below average IQ idiot who failed upwards by sheer dumb luck. You are him minus the failing upwards part.

There is article after article out there explaining the situation, explaining that Nico Harrison was a failure at Nike also that botched the Steph Curry meeting all those years ago, and that he surrounded himself with yes men in Dallas and fired anyone who opposed every impulsive thought he had. But instead of reading those articles, here you are, thinking you know, spreading your ignorant bullshit.

Damn.

I know this sounds crazy to say but I wouldn't want Davis if I were trying to contend.

He refuses to want to play Center, yet came into the season wearing a fat suit and cannot hit 3s.

Sounds exactly like a Center to me.

I think it's more about the defensive side of things. He's fine with playing the Center role on offense obviously but would prefer roaming around on D and not just protecting the paint and fighting bigs all game which I can understand. Issue is there isn't a prime Brook Lopez on his squad who would make sense next to him offensively, so now you're giving up a lot on the spacing side of things. Giannis is kind of in the same boat which is why the Bucks overpaid for Myles Turner to replace Brook Lopez.

The problem is a lot of the time there is only one big on the floor. There isnt a center and a pf. There are bigs wings and guards now. There isnt much banging down low. Spacing is an issue with him so he doesnt just fit anywhere offensively again assuming he can even stay on the floor

Well, a superstar should have at least some basketball IQ about these things. As you said, it's not as if his current team has stretch bigs. Flagg, Washington, Gafford, Lively, Powell... none of these guys can hit a 3, Davis included. Given the circumstances, he ought to be the one asking the coach to play Center to get more spacing.

A max superstar in his feelings rather than trying to sacrifice to win is not a superstar I would want on my team.

Bosh did not like playing Center at all, but he did whatever was necessary. That should be the prevailing mindset.

[BarberSchool]

I don’t give a flying **** what insane team takes on a contract $11million more per year than Luka’s … for a guy that never plays more than a couple handfuls of games in a row before being out again for 6-8weeks.

Just as long as it isn’t a team I actually enjoy watching:

Bulls

Nuggets

Lakers

Rockets

Pistons

Heat

Spurs

Warriors

Orlando

Milwaukee

Minnesnowta

Serious question:

Is any owner seriously stupid enough to want Day-To-Davis at this point ?
He isn’t even Day-To-Davis anymore, **** days. N!cca sits for months, after playing for days.

I don't think he's in his feelings he just wants to prevent the injuries. He's been the 5 since the 2021-22 season. If Mavs 3 bigs are all healthy they can definitely run some of those 2 big lineups.

It’s not about you and what you think though. You need to just look at history. I don’t know why fans generally speaking have this idea no one wants a player becuase they are 1. Always hurt/day to day 2. Massive contract/gross. When the facts are none of that tends to matter as we’ve seen teams do 1 or 2 if not both. Anthony Davis had the same injury label when he was with the Pelicans. And yet was traded to the Lakers. Davis had the same injury labels you mentioned with the Pelicans and now the Lakers. And yet was traded to Dallas. And alas here we are questioning if an owner will take a chance on him via trade? Come on. There’s never been a place where given Davis injury history he was just a throw in when he was involved in a trade.

A lot of the stars miss 10-20 games a year and need to be load managed but their production in the Playoffs is still worth the hit in the RS. Luka himself has had nagging injuries every year but doesn't get the same label even though you look at his history he's constantly playing while injured in the Playoffs and misses about 15-20 RS games a year. AD played more games in the RS in '24 and '25 and he doesn't have serious knee or back problems so his value is still very high.

Luka doesnt get that label? That was a big reason he got traded. He was hurt when he was traded. They thought he was hurt because he was a fat ass and didnt want to pay him

[Nowoco]

AD is probably the most toxic player in the NBA right now. I wouldn't go anywhere near him no matter what franchise I was the GM of.

$60m for 3 more years of a washed up, perma injured, getting heavy guy who's mentally decapitated? No thanks.

Well people mostly overlook that part and just hyper-focus on AD's injuries is what I'm saying. His value is still high because almost all the top players miss a significant portion of the RS (12+ games) every year. They had to make a 65-game rule for the awards just so these dudes wouldn't sit out more games. AD's been available more times at the end of the season than Giannis for the past 5 years despite the injuries he's had. You can load manage AD and have him ready for the POs and he's top 5 in Playoffs history in PER and WS/48 right behind Lebron & Jokic, and is also 12th all-time in BPM in the POs, so yeah he's going to be sought after regardless of the street clothes shit.

Luka will get the same label if he continues the trend. Davis probably didnt have the label this early in His career either

Nah he's always been that way apart from a couple seasons. His early career the games missed is basically the same as Luka's. They started clowning him for getting injured because he played with Lebron even though if you look at the '19-'25 seasons he missed 43 more games which over 6 seasons isn't really that big of a difference and it was last season that widened the gap so the 5 full seasons they played together he missed about 5 more games per year.
