He's said this same thing a few times in different threads, pretty weird. No one thinks having historic buildings is bad and Philly's roads aren't really worse than anywhere else. Someone must've been real mean to the boy in Philly during the two hours he passed through.

At least the cheesesteaks were worth the hype.

Shout out Angelo's don't let the run down rusty block fool you. Them cheesesteaks hit different! :D


True, man, so much rust on those half a million dollar houses on that block.

You trying hard. Im sure those houses look nice on the inside, but the outside they look rough and old. Not a vintage home fan myself. I like modern homes.

But hey keep defending your city. :D

More like PG no longer interested in them. Harden told PG Morey not loyal.


How does this make any sense? If Paul George signed a contract with philly it would be a guaranteed contract. What's Morey gonna do say "Look Paul I know we signed you for 50 million a season, but guess what we are only going to pay you 30. Take it or leave it!" That's not how NBA contracts work.
You want it to be one way....but it's the other way. (Marlo)

How? Improbable unless you want to give up one of the promising core players (Lively). This is not happening unless there are multiple teams and picks involved?

If it’s the Clippers why hasn’t he signed already? Can’t teams sign their own free agents already?

I can’t fathom they’re still negotiating or playing hardball.

U was in south philly and was expecting it to look like Uptown Charlotte? :lol: I see why you were disappointed. I’m glad you didn’t go to Pats or Genos tho.

Charlotte isn't a great city either if I'm being honest. It's growing tho. Reminds me of a smaller version of Atlanta which is just a 4 hour drive.

Philly just not my vibe.

Clips have given him the same offer as Kawhi and are expecting him to take it

Still expecting and hoping for an opt in and trade personally

Yesterday I tuned into NBA Today as they were gonna feature a segment on the Paul George possibly leaving the LAC situation.

I was eagerly awaiting the segment when 10 minutes into the show the news breaks that the LAL had just signed Redick as the HC.

I waited and waited for the PG segment.........but it never came as the panel spent the whole hour discussing the Redick to Lakers hiring.

Disgraceful how NBA Today is a bunch of LeBron/Laker nut huggers.

Maybe they'll show the PG segment today.....doubt it as they'll probably discuss the Redick hiring for the whole hour again.

That’s my point, what is the purpose or benefit for George to wait? If he intends to sign there why hasn’t he done it already?

I think there’s more at play here.

Obviously because he wants them to increase their offer and he's using leaving as leverage.
