Would you do Isaac and Ross?
I know JI is a great defensive player, he's young and a good guy. But between injuries and the relative value of a defensive big versus an offensive wing/creator, i think it'd be worth pulling the trigger.
Isaac would fit great with Zion and Ross would give back some scoring. We'd FINALLY get a great young SF.
In a heartbeat. Doubt most would do this on the Magic board or on Magic Twitter, but Ingram’s value right now far outweighs Isaac’s imo.
That's a tough one but I think that I would say no. Not that I don't like Ingram but he is not a #1 option. I would rather gamble on JI's health as he is an absolute game changer when healthy. And if he's not healthy, we won't win meaningless games without him. I would worry about being stuck in mediocrity ala the Vuc era with Ingram.
i really think this is overstated when talking about Isaac. is he a defensive presence? yes. but is he really a game changer? i dont believe so.
