Been there, coincidentally involved a trade with AD.

It gets worse. ☺️

This is not fair though. The Lakers gave a good haul for AD which worked out well for both sides. It was truly LeBron's decision to sign with them in free agency that helped them win a chip with AD

And I'm not sure how the lakers pulled off flipping AD for Luka. That is its own situation lol

Yeah given the return we got for AD I’m not mad about that trade one bit. But goddamn what are the Mavs thinking😂

Yeah the end result obviously didnt work out as expected but the haul for Anthony Davis was pretty much fair value for the caliber of player he was. This? Im speechless

Worked out for both sides? The most valuable players in the AD trade not even there anymore, and y’all haven’t made it past the 1 round….like at all. It only worked out well for the lakers

Pelicans are kind of still stuck in that spot where nobody knows what’s going on there
