Trade & FA 2023-24: Stein-Ingram Trade Inevitable| LAL Want Lebron Back On Any Terms

[audiosway]

But all the guys saying that stuff (maybe not Stein, specifically, can’t recall) were also saying Powell wouldn’t be with the team this season.

These plans are fluid. They adapt and change, and the media guys have brief access to them when they’re able to check in, periodically. They’re not kept up to the minute with front office thinking. 

Maybe you’re right, but at this point, the league is announcing deals being made official. There will be some roster filling by teams over the next couple of weeks, and I’m holding out a little hope that some other RFA news might happen today (Paul Reed is a possibility), but come on, doesn’t it feel like the big stuff is done?

Can you remember ANY big trades happening at this point in the process, like ever?

I guess we’re still waiting for the Lillard and Harden situations to be resolved, so that’s different than normal, but I have the feeling the Harden thing will drag out well into the season. Maybe they both will.

Then again, maybe 5 huge things, those guys included, get announced next week, what do I know? All I’m saying is that I hope we can all enjoy all the smart stuff they’ve done this summer without pinning our hopes to some stupid Ayton trade that it sounds like was only a possibility on draft night.

All I can say is get out of my head. I haven't commented much because it would just rehash everything you have been saying lately. Killing it!
