Any way we can get him without giving up our 1st this year?
If we do this deal now, we?d almost certainly have to protect the pick to some extent. Just as a precaution (although I think it will be difficult for us to get a top 5 pick even if we don?t acquire Beal). As someone said earlier, it may just be better to wait if we don?t get the deal we want. Time is on our side. If we somehow pull a miracle out of our butt and manage to flip assets from Lonzo, Bled and Red in a trade for Beal, then it makes more sense to do it now. Otherwise, we should wait.
Seems like a total lateral move. Beal wasn't near the player Ingram is at the same age. Obviously, development isn't linear; but when your best player is 20, you shouldn't be moving a 23 year old star for a 28 year old star. The only way I'd ever consider trading Ingram is if we think Zion is ready defensively, and there is a true superstar available who is still in his prime (Luka, Giannis, etc)
They can have anything they want besides Ingram, Zion, or this years first unless it’s top 7 protected.
They can have 2 of our future 1sts and 1 laker 1st and one Milwaukee 1st for all I care.
Judging by the Twitter replies it seems this source is clickbait but we will see,
