You think Ingram beats out Harris at the 3?


Depends on the matchup really I'd imagine. You could argue either way depending on what guy they would be facing on the defensive end.

A guy that's big for a SF and / or a big offensive threat in post / rebounding (Basically your star SFs around the league)? Give me Harris for his thickness @ 235lbs vs Ingram at 190lbs.

A guy that is less of a threat on the offensive side? Ingram all day long, especially if you can find other ways to hide him on defense or if he improves dramatically on that side.

It is a good problem to have IMO, and he's probably the best FA we could hope to get. Veteran presence, solid on both sides of the ball, tall, big, athletic. I would be very very happy with Harris, but I suspect he is going to get a max, and does Griffin really want to tie up money in Harris at 27 when Ingram is 23 and about to need a deal? I wouldn't think so. only way is a 2+1 overpay maybe.

There is a reason why Griff wanted a lot of cap space. I hope it is because he wants to have a win now mentality so we are not relying on Zion on doing everything.

He also made a comment that Zion is not here to save us.

This is the best time to sign a big contract while Jrue is under contract and Zion is just starting his rookie deaL
With all that said I think Griff will ATLEAST sign Harris or Lopez.
