At this point, i believe Poeltl is a better 3pt shooter than Barnes.

Let's assume they didn't get Ingram, how are things any different with this roster? They still have RJ, IQ and Scottie on the books, it's not like their value goes up without Ingram on it.


Financial flexibility over the next 3 seasons, the ability to take back more money in trades. With Ingram we are right at the tax and hamstrung in terms of adding pieces or making changes. Probably going to lose actually good players because we can’t afford them like Ochai.


What do you get back in a trade taking back a bad contract? A protected FRP at best? More likely some SRP's. Is that changing our fortunes?

Is Ochai really that good of a player if he can't beat out RJ who you seem to think we can't trade?


Dude, we can’t trade Barrett, we tried including him in the Ingram trade and New Orleans didn’t want him. We tried to get rid of him at the deadline and couldn’t, tried to trade him in the offseason and couldn’t. Do you think his value is increasing when the whole league sees how bad this team is on defence with our other poor defenders next to him?

Again, if RJ sucks so much and Ochai can't play in front of him, what does that say about him?

I for one am shocked that adding guys like Ingram and Mamu didn’t give our defense a boost.
