Trade Kawhi Leonard for George Hill brehs

[G.O.A.T Squad Spokesman]

Horrible move by the Pacers. I'm well aware they already had Paul George but he wasn't what he was now at the time. George Hill is one of the worst starting point guards in the league while Kawhi is a potential max contract player and a top 5 perimeter defender. Horrible trade.

lets be real. who's to say kawhi leonard would have developed to half the player he currently is...if developed by the pacers staff instead of the much superior spurs staff?
you can't just assume he'd be the same player or have the same role.

yea i think that kawhi going to the spurs was the best thing for him as a player.

The Pacers have 2 max players on their roster that wasn't drafted in the top 7 of their respected drafts. Lance has developed nicely. I don't see how Leonard wouldn't have done the same.

Kawhi Leonard would be a bum if he was developed by those inept fools in indiana

you still cant assume that....and do hibbert or paul play like max players to you?
lance is still a wild card and isnt that dependable.
with all that said i feel like all 3 of those players would be better under popovich.

George Hill is damn near Felton status

larry bird is a fukkin horrible gm, but gets a pass for obvious reasons

- team has had no bench for the past 3 years
- george hill trade - horrible
- scola trade - horrible.. traded away plumlee - couldve been a solid bench player, green - breakout year, you telling me these guys couldntve played 10-15 mins a night... AND THEY THREW IN A FIRST ROUND PICK

granger trade - horrible, needed his leadership when things fell apart

team was on the cusp on the nba finals, and bird did nothing to improve the team

Eric Gordon got a max bruh. Luol Deng hit the Bulls up for a grip. Wouldn't shock me if Minny gave dude the max.

Yeah, like @ikbm pointed out the reason Kawhi has developed is because he's with the Spurs, the dude was a PF coming out of college, Spurs shooting coach Chip Engelland turned him into a respectable shooter.

They did the season before they got paid.

Kawhi was a 25% 3 point shooter at San Diego State, he's a 38% 3 point shooter in the NBA

 

[GzUp]

That's bad coaching, ur making a player do something he can't do.. He plays better when he's not the point

I guess I have seen dumber things happen.
