Why would Indy have interest in Love? We have the best cookies in the cookie jar.

Ainge gets PG13, if he wants him bad enough.

What do they want? What can they get? Every team knows it is likely a rental; which is why Cleveland could be in the mix. I could see James wanting to part with draft picks to get George on his team and Shumpert, Frye, Tavares works money wise.

George didn't do the Pacers any favours.

Lebron swapping Love for George does not get them past Golden State.


Then adding George here even adding Hayward/Griffin doesn't get them by GS either.

So what's the point?

Make the deal and sign Hayward/Griffin. That's a contender.
More importantly, Ainge will never have a more dominant position of leverage in trade talks for a star than in these talks. You could legit potentially hang onto all of your core future assets (#3, J.Brown, BKN '18, LAL/SAC pick) because George has killed his market so bad that people are actually debating whether a 29 year old max $$$ Kevin Love is enough for George, and it's not totally crazy. Any star you get is going to come at a far higher cost than this.

Now there is a reason for that and he is a legit flight risk no matter what this board claims, but for the price I imagine it'll cost? Worth it. Hope Ainge pulls the trigger, though I'm skeptical he will. He's soured away from rentals lately, think he will here but hoping he takes the risk like he was supposedly willing to on CP3 years ago.


I'd give them the Laker pick and Memphis pick plus a player or two like Crowder. That would be enough for one year

Because these teams would want you unborn child, that's why we sat there Jerking it last year. Nobody is getting anything for a Boston or Memphis 1st. They will demand multiple bkn/la/Philly firsts. Why the f would it change now

Leverage matters. The guy literally just told the public he's leaving them at end of year so they have to trade him to avoid losing him for nothing. And he even went a step further and scared off a bunch of potential suitors by leaking that he wants to go to the Lakers in FA. A Lakers team that apparently isn't interested in coughing up assets to get him for this year when they are rebuilding. That means he's looked at as a rental, and rentals don't have close to fair trade value. They can demand those kind of assets all they want, they aren't getting them. If they got 1 of those assets it would be an incredible job by them where they defy the odds, let alone multiple.

They want atleast a pick in the mix. Another tweet said it too. Damn i wish I could find the link. Ive been looking.

There has been no talk of Cleveland here. Cleveland does this if we pass, in my opinion. Danny cant pass this up

Personally, I don't see why Indy would want a George/Love swap. Seems like a pointless move to make. If they can't put a contending team around george, why would they be able to do it for Love?

I think they've gotta be looking for young talent and picks.

Because you can flip Love for better assets than our mid level assets we would offer.

Because we're set up for incremental imrpovements every year. We don't have to be Golden State competitive by this year's training camp. Lebron's window is closing soon so he has to be.

Can you really? 3 years ago for sure. Just how big is the market for a 29 year old Kevin Love who has had knee/back injuries and been exposed defensively on the national stage multiple years now? Is it really that much richer than what you could flip Bradley, Crowder for? Plus we have far more picks than CLE to offer and a couple semi interesting young prospects in Yabusele and Rozier.

Makes no sense for INDY. They need to do a reset, not be a treadmill team with Love.

Phil Jackson might give up this year's pick for him (especially if he got to dump Noah as part of the deal).

He's not worth what Indy is asking. They will want a lotto pick and they shouldn't/aren't getting it.
