No pressure because of Lonzo
Once hes back healthy, and since Lonzo is garbage, pressure will grow id think
if Philly sucked or were hovering around 8-9-10, there would be pressure. As of now hes an afterthought

Fultz pretty much got timred shirt this year. And even if he busts, they still have simmons and embiid

He obviously knows the pressure that will be on him if he becomes a Laker

I just dont know if he can handle it or if he even wants to try to handle it

He definitely gives me that robin/beta vibe

But id respect him for going out there and giving it a try and not being scared to fail

blake griffin is a cancer. He is a complete waste of a ridiculous amount of talent. I like Detroit a lot. Always have. They need to let him go. He aint worth it.

Teams dont usually get equal value back when they trade a star or a superstar
Ingram and Kuzma isn’t equal value, not even close

that team has NO leverage. take young guys, a couple picks and the cap space and let pop build them while hes still around. thats how its done. not the cleveland way.
If Kawhi is avaliable there are gonnna be a number of teams offering deals much better than Ingram + whatever. Holding out to keep Kuzma in exchange for Kawhi should get a GM fired

Youre just being dumb now haha

Id like to hear which teams would offer insane deals when he’ll be expiring and will probably test free agency

No team will risk giving up as much as you’re implying when hes expiring and probably wont stay with that team anyway

But throw out some teams and some offers, i want to hear it

I’m not gonna waste my time trying to create offers better than Brandon Ingram. Ingram and Kuzma is like 60 cents on the dollar (that’s probably being really generous)

You’re not gonna waste time because there arent many teams who would give up someone like Ingram + for an expiring kawhi. Celtics and Lakers are teams that i only really see pulling something off like that

Its just a big risk

Can teams throw their entire roster for Kawhi? Sure they can, why not

But does it make sense for them to do it? Not really unless you get some verbal commitment from him that he’ll stay long term but i doubt that would happen with Kawhi

Ingram and kuzma for kawhi is super light
