Then this doesn’t resolve the issue. It just adds more talent. There’s a difference.
I think there's a lot more of a trickle down effect than you do.
George is capable of playing way more minutes at a way higher level than Gary or Cole or Markelle. PG is also a high volume, high accuracy 3PT shooter which is a massive need as well.
The Magic would basically be able to have at least one of Paolo, Franz or George on the floor at all times, which means (assuming Paolo and Franz uptick like we think they can) you'll have at least one guy capable of scoring 20-25 points and dishing out 5+ on .600 TS% out on the court every minute of the game.
That's not nothing. Especially on a team that's struggled so badly to score points.
I didn’t say it was nothing.
Sure, landing Paul George adds more scoring to a team that needs it. No ****. I’d just rather Franz and Paolo become more efficient players rather than just add another dude into the SL that scores. Paul George is a guy that hangs out for a few seasons and leaves until he retires or looks for greener pastures. He turned 34 today.
