So you're saying that if Ingram and Kuzma were on the trade block right this minute, Kuzma would net an equal or better return?

lmao


Bill Simmons's NBA trade value ranks the top 55 assets as of 2/5/19. Ingram was 49, Ball was 53, and Kuzma was honorable mention.

Like I said, a wash.

I'm just glad to see Pels fans going hard for Ball and Ingram right now.


I was hesitant on ball coming in, but like what he's shown when healthy.

You can check my posts from way back in the day. Been an Ingram fanboy since he came into the league.


I still rated Tatum ahead of them, but I'd definitely take the package we got over a Tatum+filler package. No question.

You do realize he was better than Kuz last season, right?



Better at what? Basketball?

I'm looking at their statistics right now and I don't see it.

You're just going to conveniently leave out that there was something like 30 dudes to get an honorable mention, aren't you?

I have a tough time with Ball because I mostly love his game, fricking hate his dad, and point guards who can’t shoot are really tough. Like I can’t fathom how he shoots sub 50% from the line

If he can just become passable shooting the three where people have to step up on him he’s going to be really awesome. Even if not he has a really unique skill set and could be very valuable

You also didn't see either play defense it sounds like.


I'm guessing you don't realize the 2nd half Ingram had, right?

Despite being a horrible shooter, he’s been a net positive player (defense, passing, rebounding, etc.). If he can become even just a serviceable shooter, he should be a very good player as long as he stays healthy.

Cauley stein is a good warrior addition considering the budget.

The 18 yr old 2nd round pick warrior alen smailagic says hes going to make it. Played g league as 17 yr old.

Pretty sure the Pels fans have been hesitant at that for a while now

So we're using fractions of a season rather than the entirety of their careers to determine their worth?

I did read it from a few pels fans. I've marked the real ones who can be trusted on my Excel sheet

Where does that work in the cap space with Kawhi?
