If you believe the Los Angeles Lakers have gained the upper hand in the Anthony Davis sweepstakes, Danny Ainge would like a word. Davis officially requested a trade from the New Orleans Pelicans on Monday. On its face, that's bad news for the Boston Celtics, who can't trade for Davis until the offseason unless they deal Kyrie Irving and have to hope the Lakers or another team doesn't snatch him from New Orleans before the Feb. 7 NBA trade deadline.
