How good are the lakers with Anthony Davis?

[CarbonBraddock]

But first of all, is it even possible? Saw this video on youtube today and there is a rumor that AD could go to LA. Is he the type of player that will be helped or hurt by playing with Lebron? And does that team become the best in the league? I've seen some preseason of the Lakers and they look good, and even beat Golden State, so they aren't complete trash to begin with. Discuss.

Beating GS in preseason doesn’t mean much, but I saw some good defense out there. With AD they’d have a really good shot though.

Lebron needs the lane open for him to be effective.


This is why shaq and greg oden didnt work.

Lebron bulldozes to basket and kicks out, dunks, or crab dribble travels layup.


Having a center clogging the lane is counterproductive to his style of play

I feel they can keep Ingram, they are the best team in the league

Bron, AD, Ingram are an unstoppable trio. Bron and AD cannot be stopped from getting to the rim. Bron and Ingram shot the three last year at 37% and above. All three would be single covered. In this instance Zo would be a perfect PG. Defend and pass. They would only need 10-12 points from him.

This is not true at all.

Bron won MVP and put up 30/8/7 with the corpse of Shaq in Cleveland, and the team won 60 games. That Shaq couldn't move 2 feet. That team also had Big Z and Varejao as bigs. He had Ben Wallace as a big. AD operates all over the half court so he won't clog the lanes anyway. Bron is also taking 5 threes a game now, just like he did in '10.

The Lakers are a top 3 seed lock right today and I still think they add someone before the deadline

1.GS
2. Hou
3. Lal

Depends on what they give up, Pelicans will ask for the whole team and if its an old Lebron and AD..they might be the 2nd best team or under Houston. If they can keep Ingram, I think they are a very good team. Still don't see anyone beating healthy warriors

You really gonna use Greg oden and a 38 year old Shaq as good examples?

What the fukk did I just read?

 

[god shamgod]

if the pelicans don't do shyt this season ad is 5000(don't know where he'll end up), you can hear it

rachel nichols lookin like an entree again

 

[Stop_It_5]

ADs locked up for three more years, Pellis are gonna ask for the whole core



Ingram, Zo, Kuz, Hart + some picks and that still might not be enough to win the bidding war. Boston's been waiting for the greenlight on Davis forever.

Who are you giving away? Trading away talent/depth won't work.

Have you watched Anthony Davis play?

 

[Bilz]

I don't see why the Pelicans would be rushing to get rid of him anytime soon. They have him for at least two seasons. The media is shameless with their Lakers gossip.
