NBA fans are massively trolling Anthony Davis when the baller recently spoke to reporters about his role in leading the Mavs as a team. Davis was confronted by reporters after trade rumors about him wanting to leave Dallas have been swirling around for some time. After Davis’s comments went viral, fans everywhere have been mocking the player for his remarks, especially since he has been on the injured list for most of his time in Dallas.
“Man, look. Y’all make it like we’re going to war or something. This is basketball. It comes with it. I think everybody in their career has been involved in trade talks or you know being traded or some type of move. So that doesn’t affect me. I’ve been in trade talks for a while. My job is to do what I do when I’m on the floor, play basketball and try to lead this team. Whatever comes out of that comes out of that. I don’t have any control over that. I have an open line of communication with the front office and I am just ready to get back on the floor.” Anthony Davis said.

“’Try to lead this team.’ Bro you’re never on the floor (crying emoji)” one fan pointed out.
“’when I’m on the floor’ too bad you’re never on the floor” another fan echoed.
“’My jobs is to do what I do when I’m on the floor’ So never? (smiling face with eyes closed tightly emoji)” one more fan added.
NBA Fans Continue To Joke About Anthony Davis’ Leadership Role With Mavs
NBA fans are definitely not letting this one go and are continuing to troll Anthony Davis for his comments about the Mavs. Fans clearly cannot believe that AD spoke about leading Dallas with the hooper hardly making a splash after being traded to the Mavs.
“Leading like a coach cause you’re on the sidelines ADisney!” one fan came up with a new nickname for AD.

“Debut against the Lakers to dropped 50 points. Then out for at least 12 weeks” another fan reminded.
“I like his attitude and his talk, but I can’t tell how he feels about being a Maverick. It’s been a pain in the a**. He really needs to move down to second or third option” one more fan remarked.
While AD seems pretty confident about his relevance with the Mavs, trade rumors are continuing to swirl, with one report stating that the player might soon go to the Clippers. At the same time, there are so many fans who believe that AD has just a temporary slump and will perform pretty well soon enough.
