Yeah, right or wrong, they see him as their centerpiece. This is fan fiction, imho. Probably right. But we all know it’s a mistake.

How does that make me feel. PLUS!!! Who(LU)Ka and Mikal Gorbi were my 2018 draft guys. Well we drafted one.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JTB Posted April 27 Report Share Posted April 27 I don’t know Squawk. i like BI…but I just don’t know. He provides length at SG over Murray but watching him in the playoffs (and I get Zion is out)…but BI just doesn’t play to the heights and lengths he possesses unless he’s taking a middy. I wouldn’t be so sure we’d be getting way better defense next to Trae replacing Murray with BI. It would just be better , maybe slightly better but we definitely still need a POA defender even with the length of BI around Trae. also BI moves a little slow to be a SG in my opinion. But he did come off a recent injury maybe that’s why. its weird because I can see us trading Murray for BI but we have to demand a POA defender in the deal too! I mean it’s a REQUIREMENT because BI alone ain’t gone do it alone to become a consistent 50 win program and top 4 seed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTB Posted April 27 Report Share Posted April 27 On 4/25/2024 at 1:00 PM, KB21 said: The only difference I see is that Ingram is essentially a bigger Murray. The fit issues with Trae will continue because BI doesn't like to be a volume three point shooter. He instead loves to play off the dribble and get to his middy. Problem there with both he and Murray is they rarely ever attack the rim. They settle for that mid range jumper. Defensively, Ingram isn't a POA defender either. You would hope his size would give him some advantage over Murray, but bottom line is he isn't an above average defender. Traes perfect fit is going to be a scoring big man. Hopefully we address that in the draft. otherwise I’m not concerned about a perfect fit with Trae at the 2 because that’s not really our biggest issue or concern Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gurpilo Posted April 27 Report Share Posted April 27 I think we need to go after Mikal Bridges, he is the perfect fit for Trae, no matter the cost. I would send Murray and OO or Capela for him, I would even include Bogi, AJ or picks. After that is time to address the big issue, I honestly don’t see any big available that could fit here, we need to go to the draft. Or try a change Capela for Zubac or for Vucevic but I doubt they accept it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you projecting that Kobe will or should start next season next to Trae ? That may work with BI at the 3 but what do we do with Hunter?….put him on the bench? I’d be ok with it personally. We’d just have an expensive bench depth which I’m not against. (Starters) Trae, Kobe, BI, Jalen, Edey or Clingan (Bench) ???, Bogi, Bey, Hunter, Capela Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
