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

[steph_harden]

Trade has aged about as bad as can be imagined.

The fact that the Clippers not only traded Shai but 5 first round picks for PG is straight up nauseating. Shai by himself is much better than PG ever dreamed of being and will be the MVP this year but ontop of that to trade 5 unprotected 1sts is unfathomable.

Matterfact is their even a close second? The Clipps set their future back by easily another decade

It was the worst trade the day it was made. revisiting years later just compounds the worstness

 

[VegetasHairline]

KAT for Julius Randle is gonna be up there in a few years.

 

[Jplaya2023]

Nope. Trade HAD 2 HAPPEN or Klaw wasnt going to the clippers. Who knows if Shai develops the same way if he stays in LA

 

[AlbertPullhoez]

Naw that retarded ass trade the Nets made with the Celtics to get the Larry Holmes all stars and gave up their draft picks

Shai's one year with Chris Paul in OKC was the best thing that happened to his career

That doesn't help at all

Mans is WCW Bret Hart status

Yeah, until shai wins a championship, nets getting fleeced is #1

 

[The God Poster]

Let’s give it until the end of next season. If OKC doesn’t get a chip before then things start looking shaky

Yeah that bubble choke was more that worth it. And why wouldnt he? Aint like Kawhi would be in his way or anything.

Yeah that was horrible. Mortgaged their future for a bunch of dudes that were already flabby. Trade wouldn't even work on 2K

 

[who_better_than_me]

Harden for Jeremy Lamb is worse. It prevented a dynasty. OKC never got back to the finals without Harden


So far the clips with George has made a wcf. OKC with SGA has only sniffed the second round

 

[MikelArteta]

Yeah it was atrocious
Esp since he left a few years later

 

[Thavoiceofthevoiceless]

It would help if OP showed what those OKC picks have turned into so far to help his argument.

One of them was Jalen Williams if I remember correctly.

KLAW AINT DONE shyt IN LA
BUT COLLECT CHECKS SO THEY
CLEARLY WERE BETTER OFF WITH
HIM PASSING THEM UP
