Ingram's status is up in the air for sure, but I wouldn't say he has 0 value right now. It's not zero but he's certainly not a very appealing asset. Tatum + Smart + Williams + Grizzlies pick is the best deal on the table IMO. They can take the SAC pick to, who cares. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats the deal always floating around, I just listed the main pieces. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davis has said he'd be open to staying in Boston, I believe that was reported recently wasn't it? You have to risk it to get the biscuit. AD would stay, I think he's a perfect fit with Stevens. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
showtime Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 I just can't see that deal getting done without giving up Tatum, Brown and Grizzlies pick in 2021. If they're willing to do that, then I think the deal would get done as nobody could really top that offer, IMO. The thing is, if you do that your team isn't going to be really that great. Assuming Kyrie leaves. If Kyrie stays then it could work out really well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can offer the #4 overall pick right now + young players such as Kuzma, Ball and Ingram. Boston is going to have to come with more than that. Also, Lonzo has openly said he'd demand a trade out of New Orleans. Zero chance New Orleans takes the LAL package. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best asset is the #4 pick, I don't see New Orleans clamoring over the other 3. Lonzo has already said he'd demand out and Ingram is dealing with the blood clots.

Wasn't that his dad? Lonzo is not a central piece we'd want anyway, if included he'd likely be flipped/sent to a 3rd team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
showtime Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 Like, I'm fairly certain that Anthony Davis' willingness to re-sign in Boston is attached to Kyrie Irving. If Kyrie Irving leaves AND they have to give up Tatum + other stuff to get Davis... the team is pretty bare and Davis is not going to re-sign. So it's basically like this. If Kyrie stays, then trade for Davis. If Kyrie leaves, the Davis deal is much less likely to happen, which honestly isn't a bad thing for Boston.

Spartica4Real Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 @MookieMonstah What year is the Grizz pick? Next year? If so that's a nice asset. Definitely think a package built around Tatum and that pick (that's not all though obviously) gets it done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
