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

As former president of the Jerami Grant fan club, I don't see it anymore. He's too much of an offensive entity now. He is paid like and expects to be an on-ball player. I'm just not sure how interested he'd even be in doing the dirty work here, the way he did during his year in Denver, despite his unique physical qualifications for such a role.

Plus, I continue to wonder: is acquiring someone to block O-Max's development detrimental to the war effort here? He's already here - doesn't cost a thing, and might end up being better than any of these names we're discussing.

The guy that would be "blocking Omax development" would be DJJ, not the starter level wing we would bring. Omax is no where near ready to be a starter. You can't wait 2-3 seasons for Omax to perhaps develop to a starting level wing and ride with current team just because you don't want to block his development. Kyrie will be 34 by then... If Omax develops in starting level wing you have good problems to worry about. You can never have too many wings.
