Even though technically hes won before?

Right, he's not a winning player, but then want another guy who has done less winning playing with a dude who is also better than you, a luxury Trae did not have when he did more winning.

He made a Conf Finals as the best player on a team, which is a lot better than most of our loser players have done

And then want to point to the last two seasons where they lost in 6 games to the eventual Eastern conference champs

Maybe I have it backwards, but they lost to Miami and then Boston, in 6 games each time

The reason why BI could possibly have more teams interested in him is that he's easier to fit onto a roster, teams play with 2-3 wings on the court at all times, they typically only play with 1 lead guard. Trae is ball dominant, if you already have a ball dominant guard, you don't need another one. You can always add a third wing and be happy about it.

IMO, that doesn't mean that Ingram is going to fetch more in a trade than Trae, just that Ingram may have more suitors.

SFP tries to argue against this when he says Garland is better. I mean there’s no argument to be made. He pulled lesser, alot lesser players to a conf finals. And at least went to 6 games with the team that beat them. Fluke or not, it happened. And he will have much better players surrounding him on our team.

I think even more telling than the shite performance BI had down the stretch is that he got beat out by Josh Hart and other lesser players last summer
