If we somehow can get Paul George without giving up too much...do that **** so hard.

Larry Bird is no idiot but lets say the deal is a swap of Jrue and Turner(and a pick(s) any maybe Nocs expiring contract) for George and One of Hill or Collison.

I'd think about doing that. George is a young 6'9 athletic deep threat with the potential to be a quality both ways player.

But once again I doubt Larry Legend would give up George for that.

I haven't heard anything...

There hasn't been anything. Indiana I believe has said they'd be willing to take on salary to improve their team. Iguodala is always rumored to be on the block and would greatly improve them right now. You kind of just put two and two together.

You're right, though I would much rather do Lou and one of the other two than Jrue and Turner together.

Definately.

I always fear giving up on our young players too soon only to see them to blow up else where.

That's why I'm glad Speights is pretty much the same and DunkzHawd didn't blow up...like I wished.

would be soo awesome.

You know what? We need to bring him back.

Why the hell would Paul George be on the market? It's his second year in the league and he's making major strides to being the eventual replacement for Granger.

But this was supposed to be an actual rumor thread but instead you and Zazz turned it into a fantasy trade thread about Paul George! Dammit! Now I have to go and start another trade deadline thread!

OR we can talk about the actual rumor/real info SF provided, that the Sixers are quietly shopping Turner for a scorer and a rebounder.

Anyone have any ideas as to who ELSE this could possibly be other than Granger, Ellis, Martin?

Josh Smith maybe?

If the 6ers could turn ET, Lou, Noc, Allen, picks into Ellis & Smith...

Rudy Gay? Tyreke Evans? Eric Gordon?

Tyreke Evans also needs the ball in his hands to be effective.

I would much prefer Monta, Granger or Gordon here. Pure scorer to fit with Jrue/Andre.

Evans is an area kid tho....also like Wall he hasn't been coached his entire life and unlike Turner, Evans has shown he can be a 20pts scorer in this league.

That would be a solid trade. Turner for Evans.

Allows us to get a guy no afraid of the moment and a guy who can score. and allows Sactown to get someone who will actually pass the ball. lol.

Don't think Reke is on the block though. Gordon is damaged goods. and Rudy is not obtainable, sadly.

**** we are running out of scorers to steal...

gotta start thinking out of the box I guess...will Thorn work his "magic" or has is his best days behind him? Will Goku arrive in time? Find out next time on the next episode of Dragonball ZEEEEEEEEEEEE.

I have had a funny feeling that Tyreke would be a Sixer in a year or two for a while now. No information or rumors, not even sure how or if he fits, just a gut feeling that he may be a scorer we can acquire down the road and will.
