You believe Danny would give up all that with the threat of PG leaving at the end of next season? I don't know who to believe in all of this:mindblown:

Getting PG would've ment they'd be more favored to get Hayward as well. And the added bonus of being a real contender in the east (even more if/when LeBron leaves) could've enticed PG to stay :manny:

They HAD to get Hayward before trying to trade for George because of some cap issues.

I can't see how anyone can support this foolishness. PG13 actually HELPED the franchise by INFORMING them of his intentions...they could have caught a nice return from the Celtics, but you don't want to trade him there because it will hurt you in the same conference?

The conference in where your wack ass team is not competing for a championship anyway? :what:

You wanted to send him to another small market out of spite? :dwillhuh:

There is a time to be petty, but not with business :camby:

There is a chance that Indiana very well thought that they could have received more than what the Celtics offered at the time...burned either way.

He kind of screwed the FO by letting it be know he wanted to go to the Lakers.

If he had informed them privately they could have gotten more but teams knew they might just be getting a rental so they wouldn't offer up too much for him.

Regardless, Indiana could have gotten more than Oladipo and no picks.

More importantly though, Danny Ainge LOST :mjlol:

He probably should have done it privately, but at the end of the day you have to try to get the most you can out of the expiring asset you have. The fukk difference does it make at the end of the day if he plans to join the lakers later on? Would you rather him leave and you get NOTHING in return? Victor Oladipo breh

That's a one year pit stop.

He not about to sign up for more years to be in some hick town playing for a incompetent team with a me me me triple double wanting nikka.

The league rigged. Where the hell the thunder come from in this scenario cuz they wasn't in the mix all throughout the year, but now they "acquired" paul George.:duck:

#PGtoLA the agenda is real.:smh:
