Paul George traded to OKC

[True Lakers Fan]

Im kind of surprised Blake didnt even entertain OKC. Russ, PG and BG coulda been a nice lil squad. Or at the very least they coulda been the new hot boyz ( cash money )

Could you imagine if Oklahoma had signed Griffin - and then kept Westbrook and Paul George?

Griffin will never win a title with the Clippers and my apologies to @Mecca

meh, at least they'll be more entertaining to watch than the Suns...

I doubt that. The one the thing the Suns were last season, was entertaining. Can't say that about the Lakers.

 

[Davis_Mike]

Okc has no cap room for free agents. Blake going there was never in the cards.

last season? meh...

i'll look forward to THIS one and base it off of that...

'sides, if the Suns fall into the crapper i have something to give my son a hard time about...

damn that Phoenix Gorilla...

Lebron is definitly happy...just pretty much guaranteed him another trip to the finals.

 

[TheSnowdog]

Chip Kelly the GM for Indy?

 

[msgkings322]

Being called the biggest trade in the league in a lot of years, I guess thee was a fn point to it.

It's not even the biggest trade of the week. You may remember the better player Jimmy Butler getting traded.

What the F

And it will another finals loss on his resume.

Blake needed that cash before his legs fell off

They have no money to sign a max player.

That's why they had to deal Olidipo.

He makes more than Paul George.

20 mil Per.

Meh...I don't care what anyone says about the Clippers.

The Thunder maxed Olidipo and Adams last year.

They had no money to add another guy at Blake's salary.

Yeah I remember, as I'm sure the people do I saw on tv last night calling it the biggest trade in the league in 6 years or so.

 

[Black Adam]

the way he's going THESE days that could happen any time now...

C'mon guys. This needs its own thread. It's too nuts of a move to be contained by the offseason thread.


WTF is Indy thinking? Sabonis is nice but who wants Oladipo at 20 mil a year? He couldn't have waited a week? He turned down other offers for that?

And traded him to the virtually the same situation that PG had just told Indy he wanted out of.

 

[trojanfan12]

My only guess is all those reported pg offers were bs. What a shitty trade from an indy pov. Holy shit

The Lakers offer was real and much better than what they got.

Pritchard was probably thinking of marketing......Oladipo is 25 and played at Indiana, make him the focal point of the offense and sell tickets......

 

[DJ Fieri]

Ridiculous. I'm failing to see how this is better than the Clarkson or candle + 26th and 27th pick Indiana rejected.

Bird didn't want to help Magic......Pritchard is the GM but Bird is a consultant.
