If it indeed happens, the whole world will find out soon enough how much better that both the Pacers and OKC will be without him and his likely $200 million contract clogging up their respective payrolls.

Not only that, his arrival in L.A. will immediately transform the Lakers into: Wait for it...
















































































































































































































































































































































































































































The 2016-17 Pacers...A low seeded playoff team with limited draft stock and salary cap flexibility to improve their roster in years to come. :clap:

Sure glad you aren't obsessed or bitter about George leaving the Pacers.

I will give the Pacers FO credit for recovering nicely after trading PG......they look good.



But, PG with Melo and RW was an awful fit.....he'd be much better off in Los Angeles with a pass first PG in Ball, Ingram, Kuzma, and possibly James....

No, it's just that most of his threads are so mind numbingly stupid, they end up here.

There's no bitterness. My team has a better record than most of the current posters here at SportsHoopla...

16-11...We good

Focus on your own team and ending your six-game losing streak.

As if I can really do anything about that. Though maybe they should, The Pistons don't contact me for advice.

And it is a message board that you posted on looking for responses, you shouldn't be surprised and tell people to go away when you get them.

Either he's with me or he's against me, and he made his choice...

And Now that he's not on my team anymore, he's just another prissy southern California boy to me and I just don't like the guy.

Wait, if this isn't bitterness can someone tell me what is?

Yep, once again the Pacers will slip in as the 7th or 8th seed and not get a good draft position.

They could go higher than that. But no way to they beat the Celtics, cavs, raptors or bucks in a 7 game series.

They're basically in NBA limbo. But don't tell todd that.

The NBA draft process is messed up. The Pacers have been a well run franchise for decades. Always put a competitive team out there. However, they never get a top 5 pick. They haven't had a top 5 pick for 30 years. That is tough for a small market team.

I was looking at those numbers tonight and doing some comparing and- If PG is strictly a Small Forward that can't play the SF Then I don't see where the Lakers would even want to look at the due

Brandon Ingram is running 16 ppg, 5 rpg and 3 apg

Paul George is Running 20 ppg 5.8 rpg and 3 apg

I think it would be foolish to replace a player in his rookie contract for player wanting the big $$$$

Now I assuming that all of the forwards are interchange and have the flexibility - We have

Randle at 13 points per game, 6 rebounds and Nance a bit less So you would have

Ingram - Nance
Geoerg - Randle for your forwards but not so fast because

Kuzma is besting their chops at 16 points - 6 rebounds and 1 assist so then if the Lakers don't get George, then Next year we have

Ingram
Kuzma as your starters

Nance
Randle as your reserves - big question Mark on Randle because he has shown zero improvements, so if you trade him for a draft pic and Deng and then make room for Lebron - I can see where the Lakers might want George or Lebron, but I am not all that sold on Paul George who will get a big contract somewhere.

And with this post...the cycle of delusion is complete.
