its an overstatement on my part.

Defense does matter.

But if you're giving me the choice between an elite offensive player or an elite defensive player, I'm taking the offense most of the time. That's just the way it is, and not to go full Boomtard, I've heard a lot of smart NBA guys echo that sentiment.

I think Beal is that much better offensively to make up for the difference in Defense.

IF we had a scorer at PG instead of Lonzo, I would say keep Jrue. But next to Lonzo, we need Offense.

But would you rather Beal and Lonzo to play with Ingram and Zion, or would you rather Beal and Jrue to play with Ingram and Zion. You got all the offense you need with Beal and Ingram. Zion will do his thing. 4th guy is either Lonzo or Jrue. I don't think it's a discussion on who i'd rather between Lonzo and Jrue to be my 4th best player. Jrue has shot 41% on corner 3's the last 2 years. He would basically be our Bruce Bowen but much better offensively.

I'm going under the assumption one of Jrue or Lonzo has to be traded to get Beal.
