A 3rd pick I was totally open to trading.

2nd pick, nope. Only if it's someone at the very least in the level of Paul George.

Keeping it is my preference. We have 60m in cap space!

Ingram has been compared to Tayshaun Prince and Rudy Gay today. With no explanation as to why.

Unless we're netting a superstar for the second pick, we're not trading it

Another thing that bothers me about it is why is he making statements like this when he's our play by play guy now? I don't like the idea of our PBP guy being a show host and making disc-jerky style statements about players we are evaluating.

My thinking as well. The 3rd pick yes. Ingram is going to be a bonafide star!! You don't deal him. I would deal Randle or Clarkson before Ingram but those guys aren't going to have nearly the same value. As much as I want the playoffs but if we are running a terrific system and have excellent communication between coach and young core...I'll be patient as hell as they grow together!

Listening to as much Laker talk as possible. That's all. I don't live in L.A. He is a moron.

Ireland is horrific. Not a bad play by play guy but on his radio show? Horrific. He knows nothing, has zero "inside info" even though he travels with the team and is an absolute tool

I don't live in L.A. dude. Gimme a break! You obviously know who the hell he is and listened at some point. So you have no reason to look down on me.

Of course I know who is. I'm just saying it's his job to get listeners talking ... whether it's in agreement or not. No need for you to start a thread and get upset over what he's saying.

Remember, radio is entertainment ... smart or stupid.

First of all John Ireland is a (bleep) idiot. Ingram is not like Tayshaun Prince.

Secondly If we can package the pick with Clarkson or Randle for Jimmy Butler or Paul George level player then I am all for it.

So far, indication is that Lakers like Ingram as a prospect. I've read reports that they were wowed by Ingram's interview. Kobe has spoken glowingly about Ingram in the past. I can't see them trading Ingram unless we come up short on signing a marquee free agent.

I thought of Tayshaun when I saw a couple of Ingram's last split-second blocks on shorties with his Sam Perkins arms. One reminded me of that block Prince made on Reggie Miller in the playoffs a bunch of years back, but eh... How much more they compare beyond that is another issue.

It wasn't until Tayshaun's senior year at Kentucky that he put up numbers comparable to Ingram's freshman year.

Sounds like they want Philly to pick him.
