    OK. So honestly, there is only one way to save this season. 3-way deal where we send Ball to the Suns, the Suns send Josh Jackson to the Wizards, and we send Brandon Ingram, Zubac, and KCP to the Wizards.

    Yes, we give up Ball, Zu and Ingram for Beal. The reason this needs to be done is it eliminates the chance the remaining players on the roster get traded. We overpay a little for Beal, a great fit next to Lebron, and create stability for the rest of this season and next. Hart and Kuzma aren't enough to get a premiere free agent, and there is no reason to trade them for anything but that because of how little they make in salary compared to their production.

    We can't trade for AD in the summer, but if they turned down that offer of everyone and two firsts, then they have decided not to trade him to us and were just trolling. This would leave us with roughly 30 million in cap space to go after AD in the summer of 2020. He can either take a bit less and sign a 1+1 then get the full max the next season, or we can move Josh Hart and some picks to get him his full max right away in a sign and trade.

    This season would stabilize because the main players on the roster (Lebron, Beal, Kuzma, Hart) would know they will be sticking around for at least another season and a half.

    McGee/Chandler
    Kuzma/Wagner
    Lebron/Bullock
    Beal/Hart
    Rondo/Lance

    It's a very good starting 5 with some actual punch off the bench. And that team is a twisted ankle by Durant or Steph from being one of 5 teams that could win it this year, and if KD leaves next GS this summer, we are a contender again next season.

    It's time to stop trying to hit grand slam home runs. Let's get a triple.

    Philly couldnt sign Brewski to the test of the year cause they wanted to keep a roster spot open for the deadline.

    Interest in Brew means AD deal aint dead... And you know Melo is waiting on us too.
