Cousins X Lebron is NEAR after Anthony Davis left groin injury

New Orleans Pelicans is just hanging by a thread. Ranked 8 in the Western conference, now is facing one of its worst nightmare. Anthony Davis and DeMarcus Cousins clearly carries NOP in every game. Remove one of them then its a free fall.  

Early in the game, Anthony Davis was forced to exit with a left groin injury in the New Orleans Pelicans' 114-108 loss to the Utah Jazz at Vivint Smart Home Arena on Friday night.

After the Knee Injury Scare, now the groin, will Anthony be healthy enough to compete on the stacked West? Intriguing questions now lurking on the front office of Pelicans if they can still keep up with the current injuries. If they move fast, they can still manage to save this season by tanking the rest of the year and trade DeMarcus Cousins for a first round pick and hope for younger generations to come.

There, Cavaliers can enter the conversation. With the front office turning out cold, hungry for another championship year and trying to retain the king of Basketball LeBron James. They need  to trade the 1st round pick. Even LeBron said the pick might not turn out too good anyway. A sign that the front can throw anytime necessary and get someone who is already a championship ready DNA and is already established. Perfect for the small lineup cavaliers. Cousins will fir the 5 and Love can return to the 4 with Jae Crowder off the bench.

"I don't think it means too much for the team, but I think more importantly as one of his brothers, that's somebody we got to know these last couple months," James said. "We want, whatever he decides to do, we want the best for him. At the end of the day, you can't substitute nothing for happiness."

The Injury itself is not career ending but it is on the mental side.


"We hope this ain't the end, but if it is, I was happy I got an opportunity to spend a couple months with him and watch him be the great point guard that he once was," James said. "But at the end of the day, a clearer head, there's no substitute for that."


Rose left the team earlier this week to deal with what the Cavs say is a "personal matter," though it has been widely reported he's unhappy and frustrated because of yet another injury that's keeping him off the court.


Rose missed his eighth straight game Friday for Cleveland -- a 100-99 win over Charlotte -- and the Cavs are 7-1 without him. He's averaging 14.3 points per game this season in his limited time as the team's starting point guard.

Coach Tyronn Lue declined to discuss the details of Rose's departure, though Lue told cleveland.com he was generally aware of why Rose was gone when he left the team. Neither Koby Altman, Cavs general manager, nor B.J. Armstrong, Rose's agent, have returned messages seeking comment.

Lue said he texted Rose to tell him he still had a place on the Cavs and expects him to return at some point. Lue didn't say it, but Rose has an $80 million endorsement deal with adidas he'd lose if he retires, according to ESPN.
