It should be PG or bust for the Cavs. Butler doesn't get them past GSW.


Although it would force Curry to guard Kyrie:ohhh:
Paul George has told everyone including the Cavs it will be a rental hence the Cavs moving on to Butler..here is what Woj said

The Indiana Pacers "aren't looking to take care of Paul George with this," according to Adrian Wojnarowski.

“The Lakers aren’t giving them Brandon Ingram," added Wojnarowski. "They aren’t giving them the No. 2 pick."

The Lakers could offer a combination of Jordan Clarkson, Julius Randle and possibly the 28th overall pick in the draft for George.

Los Angeles can sign George as a free agent in 2018.

"I think Paul is fine with playing this year out in Indiana," said Wojnarowski. "I think he'd almost prefer to play this year out in Indiana than all of a sudden be a player who is wearing one uniform and then another uniform in L.A.

"I don't know if they want to make it easy for a Boston or a Cleveland to do a trade for him. I think he'd prefer that he'd just stay in Indiana or be traded to the Lakers

Teams don't stay bad forever. A lot of young talent in LA

third worst record and they had a .500 record the last 12 games. And if you remove PG from Pacers, Lakers have better talents as a collective in the future

I still trade Love for him. Your window is closing with an aging Bron and the Cavs as currently constructed won't beat GSW. Even the Celtics/Wizards might give them some trouble next year. You go all out for George, if he leaves you can get another free agent to sign with the money you will have available with Love and George gone. Might even win a ring along the way.

It's not always purely about basketball reasons when players want to change teams.

He most likely has a major bonus in his Nike contract if he plays in a large market (or specifically the Lakers). If anyone is paying attention, he has a new signature shoe and has been in a lot of commercials lately. Plus Lakers are his hometown team that he grew up rooting for.

He has been playing in the rust belt his entire career when he grew up around beaches and palm trees. That's why Boston and Cleveland don't appeal to him at this point in life.

The Lakers have a much brighter future than the Pacers, outside of Turner and George the Pacers are compltely devoid of any real talent.
