Right now, yes, Beal is untradable. Maybe he stays that way, if so, we're stuck with him. But if we can get him healthy and make him look like a quality starter or a 6th man of the year candidate for a decent stretch of games I think it's possible to move him albeit for minimal return (maybe just a shorter contract). The real tricky part is getting and keeping him healthy.Beal is already untradeable. We'd have to attach stuff to him just to dump the contract.
KD isn't there but I think combining how difficult the logistics would be to move him and finding a team that wants him and he'd be willing to play for makes him basically untradeable during the season. Maybe a suitor comes along in the Summer.
As I've said several times, I don't think there's an ideal way forward, everything reeks of desperation whether we stay the course or burn it down. But one of the main reasons, perhaps the most important reason, to tear this all down is to put an end to wasting value trying to fix the unfixable. We don't have much to trade away but if this team teases us for a month or so, I'd fully expect us to throw away our 2031 pick. And I think that just extends our misery.
