[Ganguli] A league source tells me that so far the Lakers haven't offered Brandon Ingram in any deals.

I mean my entire paragraphs as contingent on Leonard resigning with us and I stated that. So you basically just repeated everything I said. Then used weird reasoning to discredit things you shouldn’t have discredited.

My point was that we would end up most likely keeping Lavine. & he is still technically traceable in the same way Randle is.

You can just say X is off the table in a trade if Kawhi won’t resign when I literally said this only happens if Kawhi would be willing to resign.

Dunn could hypothetically play SG next to Murray. Dunn has a better wingspan and is a better shooter. I don’t think he’d move the needle a ton but he’s not useless.

Remember that this trade scenario only happens if the other offers drop in value too.

& you’re not calling anything. This has pretty openly been our plan. Woj/Lowe were literally discussing this yesterday. Except you bungled it bc we would have to trade for him. There’s zero chance AD turns down the super max contract he’s about to be offered to play for the QO then walk to Chicago.

Our plan is to accumulate assets and trade for a star. Why on earth would our front office be trying to copy a Lakers formula that hasn’t won anyone anything in almost a decade? We’ve admitted to trying to model the Sixers/Boston formula.
