If we did get Ingram a Tyus Jones deal wouldn’t be a horrible idea. I don’t like the build from the middle strategy really at all but at least stuff seems cheap right now.
 
We are so close to getting a legit talent in the ‘25 and ‘26 draft.

Don’t throw it away by paying Ingram and being a middling team for years to come.

It’s smart but sucky. I don’t have a lot of great ways I’d try to “fix” it but it’d be nice if there was a better way to be competitive and add top tier talent.

Kawhi is beyond cooked health wise.

He just played 68 games and was 2nd team all NBA. I get it's a risk, but the fact that there is risk is why it might be possible. Point blank period he can be the best player in any playoff series and that's how you win a ring, by having that guy

I just don't look forward to watching two years of trying to lose hoping we get the best player with the 17% chance then hoping that guy develops quickly to be a top 20 guy. I'll enjoy it because I'm a Jazz Sicko, but Id rather watch Kawhi Leonard if Danny thinks he can build a team with the assets with him and Lauri as the two feature guys. Because a Kawhi/Lauri team at the 3/4 is potentially elite

To add more fuel to the Ingram conspiracy… I think Windy mentioned keeping cap space open for now. I think it would like need to be an uneven salary deal to keep NO out of the tax so that would make sense we aren’t taking salary dumps right now.

I’m telling ya, if there were an Ingram trade happening…..it would look exactly as it does right now. Lauri -> GSW is more likely Ainge pretending like he has other options.

Lauri alone already takes us out of the “guaranteed top 5-6” conversation. Once we’re beyond that, we’re mainly talking small cuts at top 4 chances and I’m ok with that.

Btw, I’m not sure that Ingram alone produces more wins the the duo of Collins+Kessler over 82 games.
