     National Diva Association 

    Kawki Leonard "I wanna go to LA"

    Jimmy Butler   "I wanna go to LA"

    Now Anthony Davis wants out of New Orleans. Just signed with Klutch Sports with Lebron so although nothing has been public, rumor of Lakers could have some truth to it….

    Can you blame him? His team is terrible, they consistently fail to get solid wings in a league that has a plethora of them. They try to bring him in some "help" with Boogie Cousins…Yeah I’d want out too.

    But yes I’ll agree Butler is coming off like a huge diva, dude changes where he wants to go on a daily basis. I kind of hope Minny trades him to a team he hasn’t requested. Butler is good and all but he’s not the type of good to demand where to be traded.

       I agree with you. What have the Pelicans done to put players around AD?? Overpay for a guy like Solomon Hill that’s what they did.

     No where does it say he has demanded a trade, said he wants to leave New Orleans, or slighted the Pelicans in any way in favor for the Lakers. 

    The Wasserman Media Group has neglected Davis in favor of Westbrook and it caused that relationship to dissolve. For what it’s worth, Klutch Sports Group hosts 4 other former Kentucky Wildcats.

     And I think it’s premature to punish Kawhi Leonard b/c no one really knows what happened 

    Kawhi has been the consumate Professional for 7 years & he clearly feels betrayed by something that happens behind the scenes – he never refused to play in Toronto & it looks like the Raptors have at least a solid chance to resign him & that’s all you can ask for when a guy is a Free Agent 

    Butler has had problems in 2 club houses in 2 years & in both situations he was being counted on to Lead young, immature players & teach them how to be proper professionals & in both cases it looks like Butler has made it worse & then wanted out when it got difficult 

     But the "Brow" has been a class act from day one, he’s been a rock solid foundation for an organization that has struggled to get on its feet & just b/c Davis has changed agents a whole lot of people in the Media are making Giant Leaps b/c they WANT to believe Davis will go to the Lakers or Celtics but Davis has indicated No such thing. The Only thing Davis has said is that he wants to win the MVP this season as a NOLA Pelican

    Usually Im completely against NBA stars demanding trades but if anyone has the right to ask for a trade its Anthony Davis. The Pelicans have consistently made bad decisions since drafting him.

     Whatever guys, the league is just heading towards the wrong direction IMO.. back in the day all we read or listened about the NBA was what happened IN the court and rarely anything else (usually some scandal yeah).. these days half the media and the people are interested in who said what and who wants to go where etc. like it’s a reality show or sth.. A few days back I heard Butler and KAT had a beef over some girl and that’s why Jimmy demanded a trade.. Don’t know if it is true or what but imagine hearing it about two stars in the 80’s or 90’s

    The Brow has two years left on his deal so if there are trade rumours then NOP could easily get a very good return as a lot of suitors would be very interested. There has always been talk about Boston wanting him, the Lakers, Knicks would likely be near the top of the queue. If the T-Wolves move Butler then they have assets, Phoenix have nice assets. If Miami don’t get Butler they will likely take a look. Philly could like the idea of AD and Embeast etc.

     @slepchor –

    not sure if you’re being satirical or not, but search Triple J ranch, Toni Braxton incident.

     

    would post a link but the site is being weird about pasting links, basically Jim Jackson, Jason Kidd, and Jamal Mashburn had a huge falling out due to Toni Braxton

    Boston but nobody gets mad at programmer Joe when he leaves his local internet company to work at Google or Delivery Boy Jim goes from Pizza Pizza to Papa Johns. 

    Its ridiculous to expect someone to stay in what is often a foreign city for the rest of their lives just because that team hit the right ping pong balls half a decade ago
