highly unlikely that the suns are going to give up multiple premium assets(and their 2019 pick right now and ayton are both premium assets) for AD

In NEGOTIATIONS LaVar's comments are far more damaging to the team trying to do the buying because they are literally trying to convince us of Balls worth to get AD.
This isn't rocket science dude.
The Celtics STILL WANT AD. So AD's dad making comments don't matter as much. Lakers are trying to convince us to take Ball in a package for AD. His dad saying he doesn't want to be here hurts their trade package. -
02-04-2019, 08:44 PMNMThreeMVPCan’t read all this when it starts with something untrue. Find me where Ainge has said anything publicly about trading for AD and I’ll stop posting...Quote:

That, plus the MULTIPLE leaks that say Boston is willing to trade everyone but Tatum, and that Boston is telling New Orleans to be patient and wait because Ainge is willing to put everything on the line.
Of course Ainge isn't going to come out and say ''We are willing to trade all of our assets for Anthony Davis, the forward from New Orleans'', because he'd had $100k stripped from him before he could press send tweet. -

He also said he would sign an extension and we did the trade. We had another opportunity -- I won’t name the player, but that player wouldn’t commit to re-signing, so we didn’t do the deal.

Lol. The highlighted part is not an Ainge quote, and clearly someone else’s interpretation who can’t read.

02-04-2019, 09:04 PMPelicanidaeThat's not Ainge's ''full quote'' at all. It was a radio interview, of some length. Here's some more answers from that same interview:Quote:

''It’s not about selling the player. They want to be themselves and they want to win. It’s about creating an environment where they can reach their goals. That’s usually how you keep players.”
What does that say to you? It tells you that yes, if it is a player he wants and he can make the deal, he is willing to trade for a player with no guarantee they will resign because he believes the Celtics can create ''an environment where they can reach their goals'' and ''thats usually how you keep players.''
The idea that Ainge would refuse a trade without a promise of extension goes directly counter to what Ainge himself said. Come on man. -

He can opt out of his deal after next season, and there’s the chance that if anyone other than L.A. acquires Davis at the deadline or over the summer, they would be doing so on a rental basis. That could just be a power play by Davis and his agent, trying to force the Pelicans to make the deal they want now, rather than later.
But if no deal happens before next Thursday, would Davis being a potential one-year rental scare away Danny Ainge? Not at all, according to Wojnarowski:
GM Danny Ainge is undeterred on making a trade for Davis, even without an assurance that he would agree to an extension with the Celtics, league sources said. Boston has been calling New Orleans for the past year-plus on Davis, and has gathered multiple first-round picks and young players to include in a package for him. Davis has a strong relationship with Irving, and Boston knows that trading for Davis would assuredly perish any possibility of Irving changing his mind and leaving the Celtics in free agency this summer."

I dont think NMThreeMVP understands that GMs will almost never just explicitly come out and state that they're willing to trade their war chest for another player, especially such a high profile player. Tampering is not allowed, and Ainge is not an idiot. He will not come out and just say that he's gonna sell the farm for AD. That would violate league rules, AND throw his negotiating position under the bus. That's not going to happen. If that's what you're waiting for, wait forever cause it won't happen.

I don’t know how anyone can listen to that interview (I did) and come away convinced Ainge is willing to give up premium assets if AD isn’t willing to commit to resigning. Hell, he explicitly says he wasn’t even willing to do it for KG. And didn’t do it for another player.
I think he’d trade something for a rental. But as he says, it depends on the package, ie not everything he would if he had a commitment.
Yet somehow this gets conveyed through as he’s all in and doesn’t care.
Celtics have the better assets, as I’ve said and some people can’t read, so if Ainge was all in, why negotiate with the Lakers at all this week? It’s very obvious and clear to all of you that 1. Ainge will offer everythjng 2. Celtics offer is vastly superior ...
So seriously, why are Pels ... who could be focused on Niko/Julius trade or NFL draft ...negotiating with Lakers who have “trash” assets? Is Ainge or anyone else going to increase offers they can’t make until June anyway just because the Lakers throw in more trash assets? Yet...clearly Pels and Lakers are talking.
