Fair, but doesn't really answer my question. Would that be something you can see LAC being interested in pondering?
Also, I simply don't buy that all 5 guards are on the same level. I can buy that they're the next 5 best players after the top 4 and that it's difficult for us to pjrocet their NBA careers with any kind of accuracy, but I suuuuuuure hope out front office is good enough at their jobs to see differences and have preferences. IF they have identified the guy they think will be an all star fit next to Flagg (assuming that potential exists in that clump, which I admit might not), then I sure hope they don't have the attitude of "it's whatever - we'll just take whichever one falls to us."
To be clear, that's not necessarily an argument for going nuclear and making a big Kyrie trade to get the guy. I'm just trying to wrap my head around what's possible in terms of moving up.
