Paul George could return in March (Wiretap)

He COULD return, should he return? I am ambivalent on this one... I think he should but on a minutes restriction, just to get into the swing of things - I am also beginning to think that we wouldn't do much with the draft pick, wherever it ends up, so why not give it a shot, keep the winning culture with PG in the team going.

I really don't know...

Why are you beginning to think that team won't do much with the draft pick ?

Right now we are on pace for a pick in the range of 6-10, we shouldn't give that up.

If PG13 is ready to go and wants to go, then he should see the court. However, if there is any hesitation on anyone's part, then no, let him sit for the rest of the season. I personally would prefer he go ahead and just take the rest of the year off, because like you said, we shouldn't give up our pick just to win a couple games down the stretch. I don't think PG sitting out the rest of the season will have a negative impact on the team's culture, they are still playing hard, we just don't have the firepower to compete right now.

Because this isn't unusual for drafts:
