And while it’s been a talking point on social media, the Lakers are not considering trading Anthony Davis, according to sources. For any dialogue of that nature to occur, his agent, Rich Paul, would have received calls from interested teams inquiring if Davis would agree to an extension if they traded for him. Those conversations have not taken place, sources say.

The difference in physicality from playing the 5 and 4 is literally night and day. Centers feed their family off the glass.. every possession there’s a collision at the 5. Then you want AD to be your first/ second option. They gotta slide him to the 4 to get the most out of him! – 12:51 PM

The 17 free throws that Lakers attempted tonight was a season-low for games played by the LeBron James/Anthony Davis/Russell Westbrook trio.

That was an impressive rally from the Lakers, outscoring the Clippers 31-16 in the frame. They had several chances to take the lead but couldn’t get over the hump. LeBron James has 16 pts. Anthony Davis has 11. Clips didn’t make a 3 in the 2nd. – 11:11 PM

LAL held the Clippers to 16 points in the 2nd Q, while scoring 31, to trim all but 2 points off a 17-point deficit.
It’s 54-52 LAC at the half.
LeBron’s 16 points and AD’s 11 lead the Lakers. – 11:10 PM

It’s “only” an 11-7 run for the Lakers. But all of the 2nd quarter points for the Clippers are from the free throw line. They’ve gone 4:48 without a field goal.
Paul George, Marcus Morris Sr., Anthony Davis return after Lue’s timeout. LAC up 46-34 with 7:18 left in first half. – 10:52 PM

Lakers stars can never seen to line things up. LeBron, after a cold patch, starts this one 3 for 3. Russ, in the midst of a heater as sixth man, starts 0 for 3 including two right at the rim. AD also hasn’t scored yet.
Clippers lead 23-13 with 4:04 left in the first half. – 10:25 PM

More on this storyline
The question often discussed in Lakers’ headquarters nowadays is whether they should go all-in expeditiously on revamping the roster around James and Anthony Davis, or are they better served to postpone wholesale changes until the end of the season? -via Bleacher Report / November 10, 2022
Not to mention, Ryan never even saw Austin Reaves throw him the cross-court inbounds pass while he was curling around the screen set by Anthony Davis. “I just remember turning the corner and I think the ball was in the air,” Ryan said. Ryan doesn’t want to be known as a one-shot surprise. “I thought my ‘Welcome to the NBA moment’ was after we make that big shot, then we play Utah a couple nights later and I pretty much did nothing,” Ryan said. “One night you might have to save the day, the other night you might literally not be asked to do anything. So it’s just a matter of just staying ready, trying to be as consistent as possible.” -via ESPN / November 10, 2022
“Signing this extension last summer, it was just so confusing to me because I think he did it because he was committed to the organization. ‘You’ve got two picks, I’m going to show my commitment to you so you can go make some moves,’ because you knew what this team was a year ago and they haven’t added any tangible pieces . And for him to sign that extension, to show his commitment, the biggest confusion of all of the extensions was Rob Pelinka, because you were like ‘what has Rob Pelinka done?’ Because LeBron James? LeBron James came to LA because LeBron James wanted to come to LA. Anthony Davis was coming to LA because, well, he wanted to play with LeBron James and win a championship. So when you look at all of the moves made by Rob Pelinka, does he deserve an extension? So for LeBron James to commit to an organization and say ‘hey, do you know what? I want to be here, I want to make sure you feel comfortable to trade future assets, I don’t need a contender, I just need a good team.’ So for him to sit on the wall and be a good professional and say ‘well look, we’ve got a lot of guys who haven’t played’ this is arguably the greatest player we’ve ever seen, one, two, three, wherever you rank him, he’s about to pass Kareem as the all-time leading scorer, this is the roster you put next to him. The formula has been shown for two decades how to win with LeBron and they have thrown that all away.” -via Clutch Points / November 9, 2022
