How is Ingram not the first name on the list but is a player that is "off the table"? Is Magic still this delusional and has that dude in "untouchable" status?
Ingram + 2 of those 3 guys + a pick should be the offer. Nothing higher. |
Ingram, Hart, and Zubac and a pick for Beal?
Glad you are not our GM... maybe Ingram and a pick... but you are taking your vendetta against BI way too far.
Beal is a good player who fits what we need... but that is way too much when we could sign someone like Klay or Khris for free in the summer. |
Beal is a stud and that is the kind of trade it would take. Washington isn't desperate to move him. Klay isn't going anywhere.. Khris Middleton will probably want near a max contract in FA. He isn't worth that. Maybe he is to MIL who are trying to appease Giannis. Beal is a great value. Also tell me how we are getting Anthony Davis if we don't have someone like Beal. You think they want Ingram? You offer Beal, Kuzma, and some other things and they might actually pick up the call.
Yeah good thing I'm not the GM because Ingram would be LONG gone and we would have Paul George right now. You all want to make this a throwaway season and pray for KD or KL in FA. What happens if we strike out again and a lot of these young players value continues to decrease? |

And Beal would put us over the top? I think not. It's better to keep our you guys for now and try to sign KD or KL even if it's a long shot, because beal would not put us over the top |

You have no clue that Klay isn't leaving. None.
I happen to think, and have always said here, that Klay is the most gettable of all the free agents, and fits perfectly, not yet another small forward.
You have as much knowledge that Klay will stay, as I do that he will leave.
None.

I would keep everything status quo. Maybe make a small trade by the deadline but that's it. Unless there's an opportunity to trade for Anthony Davis. Also keep an eye on the buyout market. We are in great position heading into the summer.

There were numerous reports that Lebron was going to the sixers.
There were numerous reports that Kd would resign in OKC.

“Absolutely,” he said. “Playing for one team your whole career is definitely special. Only so many guys have done it in professional sports, so it’ll be a goal of mine. Hopefully it all works out.”
Thompson is so hopeful of making it all work that he said last fall, in an interview with The Athletic, he would consider a hometown-discount contract from the Warriors.
“It’s so far away,” Thompson said of his pending free agency. “Anything I can do to stay with the Warriors is first and foremost. God willing, it happens. If not, I don’t even think about that.”

If you expect Klay to leave the Warriors then you're just setting yourself up for disappointment. Draymond is far more likely to be toast |

He does, but do the warrior want to pay him the money he wants? He would sign a contract that takes him to 34yo. That would lock them up to two players at over half the Cap. |

He's said he's willing to take a discount |

Just haft to wait and see, Cavs didn't thing Bron would leave and he left twice.
Okc didn't think KD would leave. And he left.for the team that beat him |

He turned down that discount already when they offered him a contract. He wants a lot just not as much as curry got. |

Hey guys, lets pack it up and not try and go for any free agents like Klay- apparently he said he's already signing with the warriors, AND giving them a discount.
Stupid me for thinking we should try to get him.
Gonna save this page for a later date...

Paul George is easily worth Ball and Ingram. OKC would be so much worse without him.
He really won that game against Philly. He made clutch basket after clutch basket and locked up Jimmy Butler. |

Klay pretty much informed Golden State that he was not going to be taking a hometown discount during contract renegotiations last summer. |

Too bad for them he couldn’t make clutch basket after clutch basket after BI started guarding him 🤷🏻♂️ |

| I would seriously make a play for DLo if we strike out on our top choices. DLo as a free agent over Bradley Beal in trade. |

Remember when we wanted Westbrook? Could you imagine right now? At the same time we were dogging Rondo. I still think the jury is out on Rondo because of so little time he has played. I do like what I see from him, and with the way Westbrook is playing is more beneficial to our team and organization as a whole.
