I'm done with George and don't want him back at this point

[Tapey]

No, that's not what he said. He said PG should have PRIVATELY told management, so they could get a lot more for him. That would have been the classy play.

No guarantee that doesnt leak anyways

No, but it's a lot classier trying to keep it private.

No, but it's a lot classier trying to keep it private.

He did it in private

 

[msgkings322]

He did it in private

Then who leaked it, his people? Then they are the jerks, and they are his people.

 

[Tapey]

No, but it's a lot classier trying to keep it private.

From what im reading though its saying he told the team, not reporters
id agree if he went directly to media and that was the first people to find out.
But it looks like he told the team, then it got leaked

 

[bksballer89]

I would assume so at the request of George if I had to guess

 

[TJL]

At least he's honest, great guy imo.

I agree.

Somebody gets screwed no matter what. If he says nothing, the team that trades for him gets screwed. Can't fault someone for being honest.

Then we are back to him being a jerk, if that's what happened.

 

[msgkings322]

Again, there's the third option: keep it private, no leaking.

 

[LogicMan]

Youre right, better he just leave and the Pacers not getting anything for him.

No, that's not what he said. He said PG should have PRIVATELY told management, so they could get a lot more for him. That would have been the classy play.

Exactly. But perhaps the Pacers also bridged the trust and are looking for bidding to go crazy now

 

[Tapey]

Unfortunately we will likely never know what really happened

Again, there's the third option: keep it private, no leaking.

With todays social media its nearly impossible for this story not to get leaked

 

[DJ]

What a butthurt classless prick of a response.....

 

[Tapey]

Id agree if a team hadnt been stated for who he preferred to play with, kinda limits options when teams know hes going to go to the Lakers regardless

 

[DJ]

More like entitlement. "He didn't show ME any class". Who the fuck are you LOL

This.

 

[DJ]

Tell me what the Lakers have done the last five years.

That has jackshit to do with this....but since you want to play that....how many titles do the Pacers have to the Lakers? Yeah, that's right.....and the Lakers squashed the Pacers for one of them.

 

[The Oldtimer]

He's not forcing his way out. He's going to take less money to go play in his home town with a team that has a way to go before they are even contending. At least he's letting the team know in advance, when they can still get something for him. He could've kept quiet until next summer.

Yes and that was classy of George to let the Pacers know up front. His contract runs out at the end of 2018 and he doesn't owe the Pacers Jack-Shit!!!

Again, there's the third option: keep it private, no leaking.

That is what I am saying though.

If it stays private, teams trading for him think they can get him to resign and they give too much. Pacers win there, bit George and the team he gets traded too both lose.

What does George lose?

Yes the buyer loses but shouldn't George care more about doing Indy a solid?

 

[DJ]

Because he doesn't want to play in Indiana anymore? I've grown tired of jobs where I needed to move on? You know what I did? Interviewed for other jobs then put in my two weeks notice and left. As usual, you're being irrational and have the maturity of a high school girl. Everyone thinks you're a joke.

Lucky fucker. Eating some damn good BBQ in TX.
