I would prefer Beal + a decent pick or two
Tatum + a decent pick or two
I do think it's a good thing Griffin is waiting. I think it will end up between what we hope and and what we fear ultimately. But we will see. I think he is taking his time because he knows how important this is. This is a career dealbreaker/maker move. Maybe he has an offer we would all take. But he is going bigger. We will judge when it's done.
can anyone recommend a strong drink for watching Ball and Ingram highlights?
Gasoline.
Edit: In all seriousness, usually when I'm about to do a long video session for analysis, I don't drink. Don't wanna get too out-of-focus. But if I'm doing a more casual watch, I usually run with either scotch on ice, or Chambord.
Basketball.
I don’t think I have every heard of anyone going Scotch……if not Chambord. Its like I really wanna watch Inglorious Basterds……damn its not free on streaming……Guess I will roll with Legally Blonde.
Hey, what's good is good. Chambord is raspberry flavoured, but it's cognac at heart. Don't worry about it too much.
33 proof Cognac…… I never understood the fascination with it(Cognac) never had a really good one either so I am sure that plays in to it. I love scotch and bourbon.
You see, I've never really understood why anyone would bother with bourbon when there are so many better options in that kind of field as well. Different strokes, I guess.
A lot of it is price as compared to Scotch, there are some great Bourbons in the price range of a Glenfiddich or Glenlivet 12.
Maybe I've just not had the required experience in bourbon, cause over here in the UK there aren't that many options available. When it comes to scotch, I usually end up running with Ardbeg, Dalmore, Talisker, or Fettercairn. Admittedly, some of those sit at the pricey end and only come out at Christmas
i'm bummed out. do I have to go start watching ingram & lonzo highlight videos now?
Man. We can't even agree what to get drunk on. Lol
Can you watch the future? Because all the highlights will start next season. I'm tired. I know that joke was lame. Just caught up on a weeks worth of paperwork this all distracted me from.i'm bummed out. do I have to go start watching ingram & lonzo highlight videos now?
BI, Zion, and CJ had a net rating of +3 when on the court together. BI and Zion had a +13.4, BI and CJ had a +13.2, Zion and CJ was just +5.4.
BI and Zion worked. BI and CJ worked. It was CJ and Zion and all three together that didn't work.
The Lakers and the Knicks are playing us for weak because of the trade demand. The Knicks know that we don't want AD in the west that's why their low balling us. The Lakers are low balling us possibly because they believe Davis has told Griffin he only wants to play for the Lakers. That is his ace up his sleeve. I don't for one minute believe that he wants to play for the Knicks. Danny Ainge is simply helping his protege Griffin with leverage. The Celtics are out of it. We will trade him to the Lakers in the end for a fresh start with Zion. Ingram might be out of the league in months due to blood clots. I hope that we can get something for ball.
In what sense is Griffin Ainge's protege?
Haha. Check this out. This is BizarroDae that lives in LA.

Ok. I'm really going to bed. Gotta get six kids to VBS in six hours.
''Brandon Ingram is gonna be our next star. I can tell cause of the stats he averaged in this 11 game span.''
Does someone wanna tell him that E'twaun Moore had a 10 game stretch near the start of this year where he averaged 19ppg on 58% from the floor and 50% from three.
Is the minutes away from becoming a star?
Rich Paul is exerting what little control he has over the AD trade. I think it’s a good sign that he did this. The CELTICS are serious and I believe they will take the risk knowing that AD could help them go to the FINALS. Davis wants to win and being in the EAST he’d likely make it to playoffs every year.
If Ainge trades Smart and Tatum and Baynes plus 14th pick and next years Memphis 2020 1st rounders for AD he will also need to get rid or Rozier, maybe a sign and trade to BULLS or PHX... Moving Rozier and Smart would be smart if they want to start fresh and bring Kyrie back. Ainge could get a starting SF trading Rozier. Give Kyrie the team he wants and he returns imo. AD would be very excited to play for Boston. No doubt if Danny Ainge makes a few ballsy moves the LAKERS fail to
Get AD . I think people underestimate how bad Boston wants AD.
Rich Paul is doing everything he can to stop Boston from having serious talks with the PELS. There’s little doubt that Kyrie has a much better chance of winning a championship if he stays with CELTICS once they land AD! Likewise, AD probably has a better shot in the EAST playing with Horford, Hayward, Kyrie and new faces Ainge would bring in via trading Rozier.

So the reported offer was Porzingis, Knox, and this year unprotected pick. After the Dallas trade the rumor was Knox, Robinson, Ntilikina, unprotected pick, and the picks they got from Dallas. I can't find anything that's falls under official sources report, but come on if they were willing to move their dollar for 75cents you don't think they're willing to trade that 75cents for a dollar?
WTF are you talking about? It was reported the Lakers offered up every asset they had last year also. And now that offer has been reduced. Which if we are playing that game. Makes me "right". Waiting cost us assets in a AD trade.
Those assets from the Lakers weren’t worth trading for. Now the Lakers have a better asset with a 4th pick which wouldn’t have been available if AD was traded during the season.

Emeka Okafor - Joe Smith - Carmelo Anthony - Manu Ginobili - Jason Williams
Al Jefferson - James Posey - Aaron McKie - Shaun Livingston
As I've stated already
Ingram, Ball, #4 => Ingram, Ball, Kuzma, #12 (or higher)
Waiting to do the trade gave us the best odds of getting Zion, which we did, and clearly it didn't harm the Lakers offer because even after a huge jump in the lottery the Lakers are offering all their main pieces except for Kuzma.
This also ignores the facts that the Lakers offered Ingram, Ball, #4 and Griff told them NO, he wants more. So what we end up getting for AD will be better than that offer.
In no sense of the word did waiting cost us assets.
Ingram is decent to watch...lonzo on the other hand is ...interesting.i'm bummed out. do I have to go start watching ingram & lonzo highlight videos now?

E’twaun is 30 years old Ingram is 21 years old bro he’s still got a lot of room to improve , Moore is as good as he’s gonna get .

Griff came up under Ainge in Phoenix. He worked for Ainge.
Does this help lessen the blow for the Celtics to trade Tatum to the Pels? Ha ha ha
