Is Davis afraid of a hostile crowd?

What a big load of fucking bullshit. If I'm the Pelicans I'm calling the NBA office up and telling them to fine the shit out of the Lakers. I mean what bigger draw is there on the schedule and the big pussy doesn't want to play.

NBA not happy . Lakers played last night . Davis played. Davis could have taken off last night and played today.. The people want to see everyone play. The NBA is in a tough spot.

Sore knee, sitting out the second half of a back to back. Must have really bothered LeBron since he just turned the ball over on a free inbound.

Line moved 4.5 points to close new orleans -1.5 or -2.

thinking that the brow is worth 4.5 points is nuts when you still have lebron.

Lebron 34 pts, 12 rebounds, 13 assists

markets got this one wrong.

lakers 122-114 win.

They are going to have to give a week off between playoff games so these pussies will be able to play all seven games in a series.

The way to fix this I guess is going to be to cut the season and spread the games out more so there is 2 days rest between games.

But they will NEVER cut out games.

I don't know what the answer is. The NBA applying a $25,000 fine is NOTHING. Plus if the fine gets big enough a team can suit a star up, start him, play him for 4 minutes and sit him for the rest of the game.

What is the NBA going to do then? have a minimum minutes played requirement.
 
Yeah not much they can do but Davis is a big pussy who is going to get exposed in the playoffs if he's so afraid of showing up for a game in the city he pretty much trashed on the way out. Be a man and accept the criticism instead of claiming bullshit knee soreness.

Imagine how the Lakers would react if Giannis every season skipped his game against the Lakers but always played the Clippers. The Lakers would cry bloody murder a top draw refused to play and the NBA would back them up and fine the Bucks. But Giannis isn't a big pussy like Davis so it doesn't happen.

This discussion is getting a little far fetched when making comparisons relating to games missed. Giannis has played 54 games, Davis 51. If it's a Kawhi move, understood. But it's the second of a back to back with a sore knee, so it's not like he's not injured.

A few notes on Anthony Davis from a Laker blog:

No superstar in the league has suffered more minor injuries than Anthony Davis.

He’s missed time due to a concussion, back spasms, sprained ankles, quad issues, toe problems, hip pain, groin soreness, and more.

His 2016 season ended early due to a procedure on his left kneecap, and he spent the ensuing months rehabbing a torn left labrum.

TYVM Morgan William!!!
As a Lakers fan.........all I care about is late May and June. As long as AD is playing then (and he will) I have no issue with "load management"
