So is Everyone in Agreement That The Paul George/Shai trade Was The Absolute WORST Trade in NBA History?

OKC has been involved in two of the most lopsided trades ever. This one and the Harden deal should be studied in fleecing 101
What do you mean by that? OKC got fleeced in Harden trade and then fleeced Clippers with the PG trade. You made it sound like in both trades OKC fleeced their trade partners.

No because kahwi wanted PG
And he hasnt delivered and George is gone now.
So without hindsight would you had done what kahwi asked in 2019?
Everybody woulda done it. And everybody would feel like idiots and br giving Kawhi the :rudy: rather than acting like the last 6 years havent happened.

Most bad deals seems like good deals at the time, otherwise people wouldnt do them.

Truth be told a lot of these conversations expose real life pussies

Too scared to make actual predictions or go against the grain but love swimming in hindsight


Thread trying to live off my thunder. By spinning shyt speaking out of turn and not giving proper credit tho.



Bron trading aaay wiggins jagged a four peat. Crated a warrior dynasty, when the warriors suppposed to be the buffalo bills of basketball. Then on top of that. Bron had to use the wiggins playbook to beat the warriors. Plus later wiggins won an actual title with the warriors.



Stop hating and spread love.
You gon parrot some shyt i did. Then try to spin the block. Without seeing a table.

The worst trade in NBA history was the number 1 seeded Atlanta Hawks trading franchise superstar Dominique Wilkins to the Clippers for DANNY F U C K I N G MANNING!


I would say this is the most loathesome fan hated and ungrateful franchise trade ever.

Like that changes the fact that it was a bad trade :mjlol:

Clippers traded a future MVP, multiple 1st team all-NBA scoring champ as well as the pick that got OKC Jdub. Dub made an all-star team, all NBA, and all defense. That’s some shyt Kawhi, Jimmy, and CP3 were doing

And Paul George isn’t even on the clippers anymore. Yes, it very well might be the worst trade of all time. Just as bad as the BKN/BOS trade that got Tatum and Brown to the Celtics

I hate how this being an all time blunder is blamed on Paul George. George made three all star games and an all nba team during his time in LA. Clippers also made their only WCF during George’s time there. This was an all time bad trade because 1) Shai became a superstar 2)Kawhi never was healthy.

I look at those being the greater issue and not George's play.

In hindsight? It’s one of the worst but let’s paint the whole picture.

Kawhi was fresh of winning a championship and he asked for the Clippers to trade for PG then you make that trade. It’s not like SGA was viewed as some generational draft prospect like Wendy or Zion. PG was a conscience top 10-15 player at the time.

It’s not like at the time of the trade people were outraged that SGA got traded because it made sense on paper.

How many people expected SGA to lead the Thunder to a title? Just goes to show you how hard it is to win a championship. The Clippers swung for the fences and missed. But that’s life.

The funny thing about it is imagine if the Clippers had kept SGA (like so many people say they should've done, due to hindsight) and Kawhi still joins the team. A championship still isn't guaranteed due to Kawhi constantly being injured over the course of that whole run.
