if the sixers don't get the mavs pick it becomes two 2nd rounders

 

hahahahahahahaa. They gave him away. There is nothing else to it. AWFUL!

 

apparently no one wanted to take him because he might cost a max deal next year

 

i can't believe that if this works out the mavs team of post-Dirk might be harrison barnes, nerlens noel, and someone named yogi

 

for the zinger, i bet.

 

also, i might be in the minority but a core of IT/Bradley/PG-13/Horford i think would easily drive a cavs series to seven games.

 

I was thinking the same thing. George in the playoffs is an animal

 

i feel like the nets 1st, jaylen brown, and crowder would be adequate value back for george if they were to do a trade. MAYBE toss in smart if the pacers are being stubborn

 

I think they're just seeing what's out there, knowing he could leave but not 100% in on trading him

 

but even if he is to possibly leave in free agency, the stevens/hayward connection could link up this summer as well

 

Woj just said on The Vertical live that Boston has 'no traction' on any deals despite talking to both Bulls and Pacers since last night.

well if they don't part with that 1st round pick, they probably won't.

 

Douggie mcbuckets for Roberson and Payne, isola is saying it tho

 

WHAT! aside from westbrook, roberson is the only one with a spine on that team.

 

I guess he can't stand around and shoot enough lol

 

Woj is saying Gibson and mcbuckets

 

supposedly the nugs had a monster offer for george, but PG wouldn't long term commit.

If the pick is being offered, the Pacers should absolutely do it. You're a middling team with him now, even if you can get something built around him in a few years he's out of his prime - and that's assuming he re-signs with you next year.

Now, I'm not really sure there is a right or wrong way for the Celtics. If you don't want Geroge and opt to keep the pick - what is the reasoning behind that? That you'll have a wider opportunity of a championship window with a (potential) young superstar alongside Thomas? I can buy that, but you don't really know what you have from that player in the end. Now I get that if you for George, he may not re-sign with you next year but I do think he gives them an opportunity to win now regardless of the competition of the rest of the league.

I mean, I get the Warriors and Cavs are crazy good but who is to say there wouldn't be another team just as good in a few years? Again I don't think there is a right or wrong move there, just my two cents on a trade that isn't going to happen anyways lol

 

i dont know why but i saw monster and thought that tweet meant like, literally a monster, or called jokic a monster

 

i know he's off the table at this point, but butler's contract is one year longer - right? That to me makes him SOOOOOOOO freaking valuable and I don't understand why the Celtics won't throw whatever. It really seems like a no brainer to make this deal - a slightly lesser offer for PG as opposed to Butler IMO
