Crowder
Clips + another pick

The pacers could easily trade Bradley and crowder for more lottery picks, if pacers can get another team offer more than that, they better say deal asap but if Boston doesn't get hayward, pacers might need to settle for less because Boston would be out of the picture and NO other team are willing to give up much assets, Boston have lot


This is a very fair deal.

2 good starters, a (possibly very high) lottery pick, and more picks seems like a lot. Yes, one of the starters is a rental; but the other is famously underpaid.

What other team will offer anything close to that value, so that the Cs have to outbid them?

Fortunately, thanks to Boston and now maybe Houston, the Lakers may have to start taking trade offers to us seriously. Thanks Boston and Houston for potentially creating a bidding war!

No we don't need to improve our offer.

I agree that Indiana should take the Boston/Houston if better for the team.

Let those team take the risk of PG possibly leaving in FA.

Laker fans thought they were entitled to Paul George, and that anything they traded for him was doing us a favor, essentially.

They're finding out otherwise, huh? :lol:

Keep in mind, this goes beyond merely Paul George. According to Woj, George was just the first domino. Once George arrived, it would set off a chain reaction, leading to a superteam, potentially headlined by LeBron.

If they can't land George -- and unless their trashy offer substantially improves, they won't -- it throws all of that into severe jeopardy.

Quite honestly, I'm not even sure if a package centered around Brandon Ingram gets it done at this point.

I think the Lakers may have blown it.

The news that Boston doesn't want to include either the LA or the BKN 2018 First Round Pick has me kind of flabbergasted. An offer of the LA 1st/Bradley/Crowder would get it done for me, and I've been told that's basically giving him away for free (SBM drives a real hard bargain around here :-) )

But no first round pick? For Paul George? I just don't really ....what...how.
