Would you trade someone like Durant or Carmelo for Anthony Davis?

Child, please
Re: Would you trade someone like Durant or Carmelo for Anthony Davis?
Durant, I'd consider it but probably not.
Melo I'd ship out in a heartbeat, as would any GM in the league.

I'm trying to find a good trade value for him. If he's in the Durant stratosphere already, then that's ridiculous

Durant, no, Carmelo, yes.

I think 80% of GMs would take Anthony Davis over both Durant and Carmelo.
100% would take Anthony Davis over Carmelo.

Re: Would you trade someone like Durant or Carmelo for Anthony Davis?
Watching the USA v Brazil game yesterday, I just can't think of a single player with a ceiling as high as his. I would honestly trade Lebron (age) for him. Durant is possible, probably wouldn't do it though. Anyone else, I'd trade without a second thought.
People were criticizing his offensive game coming out of college...and just 2 years later he's already got a wet midrange jumper. He says he's been studying a lot of Dirk and KG tape..if he can extend his range to the 3 and improve as a passer..how the **** do you guard him?
People were calling him skinny..just two years later he's bulked up to just under 240, and he's still going. Reportedly he's also grown a bit..he was a 6'3" guard just 5 years ago..and now he's a near 6'11" 240 monster with guard instincts.
I think everyone knew at the back of their mind he'd improve even if they had some doubts..but I don't think anyone would've predicted he'd progress this rapidly. I mean it's at the point where he could be a top 3 player behind Lebron and KD (and not even a distant 3rd, on their level) by the end of the season and I wouldn't be surprised at all.

Only thing that gives him Durant value is his age. If Durant demanded a trade, Thunder would take Davis straight up.
Melo would be traded in a heart beat as said earlier.

Good college starter
Re: Would you trade someone like Durant or Carmelo for Anthony Davis?
For anyone that hasn't been paying attention for the last year:
There are only two guys that potentially get you Anthony Davis in today's game - LBJ and Durant...
... and NO would have to think long and hard about it.

Right behind you.
Re: Would you trade someone like Durant or Carmelo for Anthony Davis?
In my opinion AD is the best since LeBron and the third best since Jordan. I appreciate Melo and Durant greatly but i probably would take AD over them, maybe not over Durant this year but 2015 for sure.

If healthy, Embiid will overtake him as the player with most potential

Re: Would you trade someone like Durant or Carmelo for Anthony Davis?
AD is overrated
What's the difference between him and pre injury jermaine o'neal?
U guys get too hyped about 20/10 and some blocks
