  1. out of all the guys to hold on to it's Kyle Kuzma?

    Kuzma is awesome

    Maybe it’s more about fit, Lonzo probably more valuable but you have Lebron as a ball handler

    Kuzma isn’t worth holding on to for Anthony Davis.

    Shot 30% from 3 last year and isn’t a great defender.
     
  5. It’s like Houston not wanting to give up a role player in the Butler deal

    I never said that they shouldn't trade him for ad, just that he was good. He's the only other good player on that teamoutside of Lebron so I think he could be even better on a more talented team.
     
  7. Ingram and Ball are both better than Kuzma FOH

    I’ll take Kuzma and Ball over Ingram, especially given that you have a year before you have to pay him
     
  11. Brandon Ingram is fucking good - Kyle Kuzma is not.

    Is there any update on Ingrams shoulder at all since that injury? Just seems awful.

    Ingram might be better than kuz but I think they’re of pretty similar caliber lol

    At least this isn't as dumb as when Timofey Mozgov almost stopped the Melo trade

  15. Ingram is a way better shooter than Kuzma

    Kuzma has more explosiveness but he's a terrible shooter and a terrible defender and his value is inflated because he was the focal point on a terrible Lakers team during his rookie season.

    Windy on ESPN right now:

    “Good news for Lakers is that the Knicks appear out on the AD talks. Bad news is Pelicans still don’t like the Lakers offer.”

    Ingram hasn't played a full season since his first year where he only started 40 games, he was 33% from 3 in his 3rd season. Let's relax with him being some amazing, far and away better player. The Pelicans would have to give him a big option or extend him after this coming season, he's currently recovering from Deep vein thrombosis - Wikipedia

    Who could have foreseen expert gm rob pelinka not being able to swindle David Griffin?

    ingram is theoretically better though there is little to no evidence of that in actual real basketball. plus he might legit not be able to play competitively by the time his first contract is up. that's not great.

    I also prefer this to seeing the Lakers prospects in New Orleans.
