Any way we can get him without giving up our 1st this year?
I heard that Pels could do it if they are willing to part with BI. I wouldn’t do that.Originally Posted by HornetGuru
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.
Doubtful unless they are just in love with someone like Ball, NAW or Hayes. Best case would be to get some light protection on the pick (top 3-5) and even that would be a longshot.
Pshhh no deal.
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.
For a year and a half rental?
What makes you think he wouldn't extend?
Can we afford another max player? Wouldn't we go into the luxury tax? Especially since we'd have to pay Zion then as well.
Judging by the Twitter replies it seems this source is clickbait but we will see,
Give em Adams
That’s the thing is they will have to try and match Salary and that would leave Bled, Adams, JJ, and Zo as the perfect candidates.
The plan has always been to go get the third star. Can easily fit 3 max guys under the tax. The tough part is to then hit on the fringe moves.
Can match Beal's salary with Lonzo, JJ, and Melli. Don't need to include Adams and Bled
or........
What makes you think he will?
Wouldn't say "easily" but can be done. The disadvantage we would have is that the winning teams with many expensive star players are destinations, so vets will sign with them at a reduced cost. Would they do the same to come to Pels?
All three are expiring contracts.
And?
I’d be willing to chance it. If it doesn’t look like we’ll keep him, I’m sure we could get a good haul next year trade deadline.
