Paul George Trade Thread

[Malta]

@Malta it seems to me like you don't want PG in LWO. A black president like Magic smiling makes you uncomfortable? Not my @Malta.

I wouldn't trade anything for him if I'm the Lakers, why would you want Magic to offer up anything?

Players change their minds all the time, you don't think if Cavs somehow got PG he wouldn't re-sign with that team?

Yeah I could see him leaving.

We now have a track record of Lebron's teammates struggling to play alongside him and continually getting shytted on by the media. Not sure if PG is gonna wanna deal with that bullshyt. Plus he's been competing against Lebron directly for a minute, he might not wanna team up with him.

I rather get Jackson and go for Westbrook next year too... BUT Westbrook better learn that we need proper team ball movement. Really hopes KD's accomplishments makes him a better player and he evolves this year and comes home next. That would be ideal. We can also trade Randle and DLo if we get Jackson.

What did KD "accomplish"? Was that team supposed to lose?

Sources: Pacers talk to Cavs about P. George

After Indiana Pacers superstar Paul George informed the franchise in no uncertain terms he plans to leave the team as an unrestricted free agent in the summer of 2018 when he can opt out of his current contract, the Pacers began shopping George's services this weekend, including a phone call to the defending Eastern Conference champion Cleveland Cavaliers, multiple sources confirmed to ESPN on Sunday.

Because I hate Clarkson and his entire existence. I rather secure PG and not give much than take the risk of not getting him at all. He could easily get traded to the Cavs and be enticed to sign a long contract.

The funny thing is they have to trade for pg because of all that stupid spending on deng and mosgoz

They can get him, they just have to dump Deng or Mozgov and/or not resign Randle.

For some time now the Nets have been making it clear that the'll take on bad contracts in exchange for picks and young players. I can easily see the Lakers dumping Deng or Mozgov along with a pick and maybe Clarkson in Brooklyn to open up cap space.

What makes most sense for everybody is to trade him for Kevin Love. Cleveland, you only got Bron for one more year. You will NOT beat the Warriors the way the team is now. So make a major move and give it a shot. No sense in the Lakers doing anything. Why trade for him when you know its a great chance he comes for free next summer? Might be a question as to whether or not the Pacers want to take on Loves contract, but the sad fact is he may be the closest thing you get to a superstar for years to come.

 

[Bolzmark]

Can someone tell me why trading Love for potentially a 1 yr PG rental is a good idea? Even so, swapping Love for PG is kind of a lateral move if you ask me, you'll improve greatly on defense and have someone to guard KD but GS system + Draymond Green means it still won't be enough

Because as it stands now, the Cavs are NOT not winning the championship next year. And Bron is outta there next summer. This may be your last shot at another 'ship for a long time. Not to mention Love is overpaid anyway.

Randle, 28th and some pick from 2036..Do it Magic!!

If PG is that anxious to play for a contender then renting him for 1 year isn't really securing him.

I don't get weakening your position as the Lakers, especially since I think the Pacers are going to ask for some crazy shyt for him that only desperate teams (Cavs / Blazers) might jump on.

Randle, 28th and some pick from 2036..Do it Magic!!

Randle, Russell, and George all have the same agent. I doubt you see either of those two included in a deal for PG13.

Besides a report has already come out saying the Lakers refuse to trade any young players to get Paul George.

So resigning randle is not a priority?
