Paul George Trade Thread

[Frump]

How many more times does this have to happen before these stupid ass teams trade the player who is non-committal about their future with the squad? Are the Jazz, Wolves and Kings the only ones who've done it right in the last 10 years?


They should have moved him at the deadline when they actually could have gotten a decent package for him, but nope, they hold on when the writing is on the wall. This isn't a generational talent, this is just a really good all-star, I can understand not trading a top 5 player, but cot damn these GMs act like abused women who think they can change their men.

I think that's why Bird left. The owner wanted to keep Pg and have Bird coddle him so he stayed and Bird told him bye

i told you nikkas man, PG going to cleveland for the rental then the lakers.

the team hopping doesn't make any sense. He could potentially team up with LeBron in LA after Brons contract is up next year, if he was to go to Cleveland it likely wouldnt be a rental.

Wait hold the fukk up fam
He for the same stripper pregnant again

Link ? I just can't believe ut

I'm unable to link right now. Just google "paul george baby mama" and read the most recent news.

 

[Biscayne]

just get him to Miami for a year pat, he won't want to leave after that

PG, Hayward, Whiteside, Dragic...We byke

If Don Riley pulls this one off before he retires...

Would be interesting to see the Nuggets make an offer again. Chandler and Mudiay for George. I don't know if they have anyone else's future picks, but maybe throw in some 2nds or a late first if anyone is gonna have one.

Denver could push really hard for Chris Paul this summer if they brought in George, even if it's just for one season.

 

[Biscayne]

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.

You wouldn't wanna keep Randle and DLo? What about the Lakers future?

 

[MooseMouthMthafuga]

Just fukk the Suns, huh?


We don't get no respect.2 top 10 picks and a top 10 point guard for Kevin Love?

The report also said this:


"The Lakers don't have to give assets up to go and try to trade for him. In fact, I think they have been encouraged to do just the opposite. If Paul George goes there, he wants them to have assets, he wants them to be as good of a team as they can when he walks in."


and another report said this:

According to The Vertical's Adrian Wojnarowsk, George has informed the Indiana Pacers of his plans to opt out of his contract after the 2017-18 season, with the Lakers as his preferred next destination.

Shelburne reported the Lakers "do not currently intend to part with any of their young assets in a trade with the Pacers."

Wojnarowsk reported Pacers team president Kevin Pritchard is speaking with teams about trading George, but he has reportedly yet to open a dialogue with the Lakers.

For now, the Lakers have little reason to aggressively pursue a George trade. While he may want to play for them now, his feelings about staying in Los Angeles long term may change with one bad season.



I didn't say anything about tanking, I'm saying don't give up young assets to get Paul George. I want the team continue to develop the young players they have.



Which games?

Cause as I recall the Laker that was benched the most last season was D'Lo.Unless he was in foul trouble Julius was usually out there on the court late in games.



Again this isn't true, he showed improvident in every area you just mentioned. You can easily look at his shooting percentages and see that he improved his jumpshot. He also finnished with his right hand more than the previous season. His defense still needs a LOT of work but he showed flashes last year and actually had some key stops late in games.




There are also people that think Russell is a bust and want him traded...There's always dissenting opinions among fans.



Why would you think he'd suddenly stop improving at his age after he's already shown improvement across the board?




Well no shyt, what are you gonna say next, "The Sun is hot". I'm just saying don't give up anything to get Paul George if you don't have to, that makes no sense especially when George's camp has already said NOT to give away assets.

It sounds like you really just want to get rid of Randle for no reason lol.



Then why would he be sending signals to the lakers NOT to trade away their young players?



It's a different regime, and NONE of those guys were saying outright they wanted to play for the Lakers.

Unbiased Lakers fans oh have I missed you guys

Yeah that's probably his worst trade ever

 

[Regular_P]

It would make sense for the Grizzlies to move all their chips to the middle of the table if they could somehow match salaries to bring in George. He'd never re-sign there, but shyt, they could give it one last (failing) go with the Gasol/Conley core and then blow it up next offseason.

No trade machine from Simmons should ever be taken seriously. They're always atrocious.

Take if bender and that deal gets done

 

[Rigby.]

We should be allowed to keep Love and get George

Bron deserves one more in Cleveland god damn it
