But he doesn't have that physical presence of Lebron, and he also doesn't have the flash of Kobe. So it's hard to say. Maybe it becomes a focus on particular teams.
Anthony Edwards probably...that narrative is already starting this playoffs.

Maybe...but Lakers have a ring to show for it with Anthony Davis which is all that matters. Lakers probably make a move like that whether Lebron is there or not. They made or tried to make those same moves when Kobe was there too.

It's the Lakers way.

Brandon Ingram
Lonzo Ball
Josh Hart
Jaxson Hayes
Nickeil Alexander-Walker
Didi Louzada
Herb Jones
Dyson Daniels

I'm still taking Anthony Davis over that mismash of players that the Pelicans ended up with out of the deal.

Now if New Orleans actually turned the 4th overall pick into something in 2019 (Garland?) and if the 2022 and 2025 picks become something then maybe it would be better. But overall I'm taking Anthony Davis and that championship right now.
