Anthony Davis can't seem to catch a break from various Injuries. Do you think it's time for the team to Trade him instead? We can secure good pieces for him & maybe Future 1st Rounders. |

Wait until LeBron leaves and then trade him for picks to jumpstart the rebuild. |

The ideal window for buy high sell low was 2 weeks ago, we missed the boat. |

Winning the title this year and then trading him would be a baller move. |

To those who think we should trade AD: Don't you think it would piss off LeBron if we actually did that? He's already been pissed that he doesn't have enough help around him to begin with. |

The easiest way to part ways with AD, and possibly Klutch (not happening) is when Lebron retires or leaves for Cleveland. _________________ βYou have to dance beautifully in the box that you are comfortable dancing in.β - Kobe Bryant |

I agree that the optics and LBJ factor make it super unlikely if not totally impractical that AD would be traded anytime soon.
That said, analytically, and from a "can you build around this guy in 3 years when LBJ is gone?" perspective there is at least some logic into "selling high" soon.
I think there is evidence that even a beast mode AD by himself with various role players is still around a sub .500 team R/S especially given the history that AD has been out for extended periods and looking at the fact that he will be about 32-33 when LBJ is gone. We also see that LBJ by himself with various role players can at least sniff .500. So, logical to say, that while LBJ is a definate #1A type player that AD is like a #1B-#2A type player in terms of contender roster. Lakers would need to get at least another #1A type player or more to improve around AD in the future.
LBJ+AD at the moment if healthy = gotta give them the puncher's chance in the playoffs so this year and maybe 1 more.
LBJ + AD in 2 or 3 years = punchers chance is gone and a bunch of question marks about the value of keeping AD at 40+million going forward. |

Funny, but I am ok trading him, he is too injury prone to create around, long term... _________________ βAlways remember... Rumors are carried by haters, spread by fools, and accepted by idiots.β |
