Lakers Brandon Ingram Might Be Worth It

[@TyrellClay]

Smart thinking. Reaves, Ingram, DFS, Bron, AD, Kessler/Richards, Max, Vando is a TOUGH playoff rotation

[@vanhcampo4711]

Hell you go get Ingram I wouldn’t be mad with Austin still running the Point. Ingram would be a GREAT addition. He can score, handle the ball, and play descent Defense. The knock on Ingram is Health but definitely is worth taking a shot. Let’s GO!!!

[@ghost-type]

After the DFS trade, adding Ingram would honestly be a good trade. My only worry is health issues in the playoffs. Just need them to stay healthy at the end of the season.

[@wc6465]

Agree. Ingram is a better value. Jimmy Butler costs too much and you have to trade most of your depth to get him.

[@juanjuan799]

We need WALKER KESSLER, and BRUCE BROWN.

[@Quay-v2g]

Is it me or does feel like that every team can play bad against any other team but when they play lakers they try their hardest

[@SISKCERTWaJaVlogs]

it's because lakers have this prestige to it and everyone gets up for it

[@vanhcampo4711]

I like the way you are thinking Tyler.

[@IAMJB1500]

I like this the more I think and hear it. A good player who can score , move off ball, can get a consistent 20 a game and you have someone who can carry the lakers scoring wise with bron and ad off the floor

[@hectorrosado5807]

If, if ,if we can get BI without trading Max, DK4 AR and NOT giving away first round picks I would do it. Only if you match contracts. The problem with BI is what happens after his contract expire. Are you paying him a Max contract ?????????? If your answer is NO, you lose him and whatever you trade for him.

[@mattjones1378]

Should kept d angelo and just bring the gang back. Lonzo, Ingram, Randle, kuzma, clarkson, nance jr

[@courtneyojeda2445]

This is the move I like man !

[@juanjuan799]

ZACH LAVINE, and BRANDOM IMGRAM, are just to expensive. We need WALKER KESSLER, Bruce Brown, or ROBERT WILLIAMS.

[@ebozion32]

I've been saying this and totally agree!! Ingram would be a great pickup because he's a wing to begin with. If they can get BI and keep Reaves somehow, this trade scenario would be one of the best situations you could hope for. And he's still young enough to be a part of Lakers' future. Walker Kessler would be kinda forcing it and maybe too much to ask for. I guess Jonas would be the most likely trade if this would happen?

[@BCoulon-r3e]

I'm cool with that but man Zach is the perfect fit I would love a three team deal with the Bulls and Utah

[@tony62]

Lakers do not need a wing. The emergence of Christie and Reaves has made that clear. They need the Kessler / Sexton trade. That's it.

[@brianjackson8668]

Please. Come playoffs you will change your tune

[@jarinnstevenson5604]

They Need to get a Center First . Tired seeing Rui Playing at the 5 when he can't defend

[@ggkedzz5895]

Ingram is good, but we need a defensive 5

[@AsItStandsLakers]

You can still go get a Kessler or Richards

[@kirtmoore4015]

Facts. Must of forgot how gd vando is defensively

[@williamgriffin9269]

The Lakers are not trying to sign a center. They will act like it but won't because of the effect it would have on Lebron.

[@williamgriffin9269]

You know they are not going to sign a qualitycenter as long as lebron is on this team. Davis would be wise to ask for a trade so that he can play his natural forward position.

[@germyhalgerman3591]

@@AsItStandsLakershow would you be able to get Ingram, Kessler and Sexton?

[@maycom778]

A report stated that Fox has 3 teams he’s willing to go to: -Spurs -Heat -LAKERS!!!!!!!!! Fox isn’t expected to be traded until offseason but his value will decrease in the offseason and will continue to decrease the more we go into next season. Teams might be more inclined to just wait until offseason and get Fox in free agency the closer we get into the end of his contract… Fox should might be traded THIS SEASON!!!!❤

[@LakerTriangle]

@@maycom778 why would his value go down? Teams know who/what he is...AND big moves are more likely in summer after teams know their draft capitol.

[@maycom778]

@@LakerTriangle good point. Offseason is a good place to see what u have… Still the closer u get towards the end of a players contract the less their value becomes because teams know they can get him for free in free agency. Look at Brandon Ingram… his value is SIGNIFICANTLY LOWER right now than a year ago and was lower during last offseason. BI’s value was higher last regular season than offseason because he ONLY HAS 1 YEAR and will be a free agent this summer. Pelicans are almost giving him away for free just to get something

[@LakerTriangle]

@@maycom778 BI's value is mostly down because of his demands for what he wants contract wise and the new CBA. If we were under the old CBA he would already been traded.

[@kurisupoddo1721]

We need a walker kessler

[@shadowban813]

I’m all for it

[@anthonyharding2351]

Why would I trade Vando. I am not trading a proven defender

[@brianjackson8668]

That's unplayable in the playoffs

[@devinnichols1514]

Vando and others for Ingram is a clear no brainer.

[@williamgriffin9269]

The lakers had Ingram but his game like many other players game was thrown off because of one individual super star on the team. He would not be happy with the Bron still there.

[@mikeangel8017]

so your saying you rather keep the scrubs we have lol. Gabe, Rui, Vando, Wood, Max, .

[@aaronfranklin4695]

I say go for it

[@germyhalgerman3591]

You can’t get Ingram Kessler and sexton. You have enough assets to get one of those and that’s still a stretch. Dude nobody is taking Vando’s contract without a pick attached he’s always hurt and who’s taking Gabe Vincent? You’d have to attach a pick. Guys you can’t trade crappy players without attaching picks

[@Longliveduhhkiid]

Ingram had a low motor tbh idk how I’d feel bout him. As a talent yes but as a mentality guy no

[@LakerTriangle]

My biggest issue with BI is I don't trust him to be healthy when we need him in the playoffs.

[@AsItStandsLakers]

I definitely have my concerns about him as well injury wise but my hope is alongside AD and Bron he won't have to carry as much and also how much of the injury issues are just the Pelicans?

[@cristianguzman1632]

At the price he’s going for, 100% worth the risk. Upside is so high

[@derek1462]

Averaged only 14 a game last time he played in playoffs i dont feel comfortable with him

[@747westscope]

Ids say get kessler and lets see the team for a week or 2

[@ALLinHerMovements]

Ingram’s health issues tho… that’s my only concern.

[@AsItStandsLakers]

Likewise

[@doitall36]

INGRAM IS HURT SO MUCH

[@taehwankim6988]

No! he plays less than 50 games.

[@tonycusic8857]

You always want LeBron to take a pay cut. Like he’s still not the best player on the team at 40. You take a pay cut.

[@AsItStandsLakers]

Lmfao Lebron isn't going to sleep with you. Relax. Secondly, Lebron offered to take the paycut to help the team goofy.

[@TaviusMinter]

They don't need day'ron sharpe Jesus crisis

[@triggersxm1958]

Lebron and Ingram won’t be a good match for the starting 5! Ingram love to have the ball

[@geebee1527]

Tyler!!! Sup man lol

[@AsItStandsLakers]

Sup!

[@jrrosberg]

For someone who is never available .......No

[@AsItStandsLakers]

All these guys available have injury concerns. The days of guys playing 82 games are a thing of the past.

[@paulparrinello2526]

Walker Kessler. Ingram is finished. He had his chance

[@brianjackson8668]

Kessler is a stiff

[@devinnichols1514]

A guy that puts up all-star numbers is finished? A guy that hasn't even reached 30?

[@paulparrinello2526]

@ he can’t play defense

[@devinnichols1514]

@@paulparrinello2526 You may want to get better familiar with who Ingram is before weighing in. Ingram is a solid defender. Check the data.

[@Beau838]

I would do it if only costed 1 pick swap and salary filler DFS has made Vando expendable and BI is the only guy that I’d be okay losing Rui over Gabe/Rui/Vando/1 pick swap for BI JHS/take protections off of 2027 FRP/unprotected 2029 FRP for Kessler Hayes/Wood/2 SRP’s for Davion Mitchell for POA guard. Also Davion’s playmaking has really become a strength of his this season so he could be play some PG too Sign Fultz for backup PG and Jalen McDaniels PG Davion/Fultz/Shake SG AR/Max/Bronny SF BI/DK/Reddish PF Bron/DFS/McDaniels C AD/Kessler/Koloko Good luck scoring on a team that has Davion on POA, AD roaming for help with Kessler as the back line and DFS/Max guarding your wings A core of AR/AD/BI/Kessler for post Bron would already be competitive. They’d just need a 2 way PG

[@AsItStandsLakers]

I'd love something like this but DLo is on the Nets now. I'm assuming you ment Gabe?

[@Beau838]

@ yea I meant Gabe!

[@Mr.81]

I’m not that high on Brandon Ingram he doesn’t move the needle and look his postseason play last year not a playoff performer and I don’t like the fit and he’s injury prone

[@brucew1817]

But look at the 2022 performance

[@cristianguzman1632]

Last playoffs he was playing through an injury and was the focal point of the offense. Put him as the #3 what u think gonna happen

[@CJThoo]

Nope we want fox

[@anthonygasso]

Do not get him. Lazy player. He has a track record of having a bad attitude. We need high character players. Not just talent.

[@activechuckss]

I Think B.I Is dope depending upon what we have to give up. I would give up AR & Rui & play positionless basketball! Pg Lebron SG Max SF BIngram PFDSmith Cent AD Bench Gabe V., Knecht, Vanderbilt, CWoods, Koloko, JHS, JHayes, CReddish,

Turnover machine but when Bron get 4 turnovers it’s fine got it
