I'm guessing the Bulls would have a Zo and Culver back court if the Bulls send Lavine to the Pels? I don't see the Pels wanting Lavine though. Jrue is older but much better and plays his spot. There really isn't a young all star-like talent out there for them that is better than taking Ingram.

I remember Windhorst doing the same stunt with Kevin Love in regards to Wiggins. He was pounding the table for the Cavs to give up Wiggins immediately. Now obviously Wiggins hasn't lived up to the hype, but with more patience they could have maybe got Love without giving up Wiggins. Hell...having a rookie Wiggins might have been enough to get by the Warriors that year. (Better than counting on Delly as a 2nd option)

Windhorst has no real connections anymore and not someone to take seriously.

Warriors injuries = Lakers better not panic.

I know it was just the regular season, but a healthy Lakers squad matched up very well vs. a healthy Warriors squad. I still think if LeBron doesn't mess his groin up/others Lakers stay healthy they could have been in the WCF (if they avoided GS until then)

Low key the best bet might be just sign a max FA. Then see if you could get AD traded to you right before the season or during the season.

The ONLY negative is if AD/Zion look like a dynamic duo not worth breaking up....Thats the only scary part. New Orleans might just roll with it for a year if they are in a solid playoff spot.

However, I think patience would be the best bet. West is wide open. Bron is a different beast in the playoffs. Max FA on the way. The young guys should get better now that Luke is gone..

The Blazers are a team to worry about regarding AD. They have some scary similarities to the Raptors of the past few years. They might decide to break up CJ/Dame like Derozen/Lowry and don't give a fukk about AD being a rental.

He was in the 16-18ppg range this season. There's no reason he can't be a #2 next season

I was assuming they got AD, moving BI to the 3rd option. Both Bron and AD would be in the 24-27ppg range so 16-18ppg from him would be impressive. If AD doesn't come, yeah he should be around 21ppg

Yeah but if we get AD he’d have to be the #3. But I agree, in the unlikely event we get nobody this summer I think BI is ready to definitely be the #2 to Bron next season. And I think Bron is confident in BIs ability to do that the way he was deferring to him a bit and letting him eat after the AS break

Even better we can get him next year without giving up any pieces
