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

[F Gump]

Do you think they‘ll definitely make a deal in the end? Or is there a strong possibility that they are flirting with everybody but don‘t get close with anyone…? 

That‘s my biggest fear, that the dominoes will start falling and we end up missing out on improving our team.

It sure sounds like they are actively in "negotiate the best deal" mode - with multiple teams as possible trade partner, but playing them against each other with only one of them to get a deal -- rather than "is there anything we like?"

I'm not all that impressed with most of the possibilities, so won't be bothered if there's no deal. 

To me, the worst outcome is paying a high price for a slight upgrade that doesn't really change the potential, rather than "no deal."
