Popular Post NBASupes Posted February 20, 2017 Popular Post Report Share Posted February 20, 2017 It's supposed to feature Bembry, Hardaway Jr, salary space and a lot of picks. No word if Bazemore will be traded. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hazer Posted February 20, 2017 Report Share Posted February 20, 2017 (edited) Well that certainly moves the needle. Hope it's Gaze instead of THJr shipping out though. Source? Edited February 20, 2017 by hazer 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Source? People I've been texting with back and forth. They told me on Wednesday but I didn't believe them. Everyone in the NBA is pissed since Ainge is being an ass with his assets. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hazer Posted February 20, 2017 Report Share Posted February 20, 2017 There's another thread on here about Grant Hill being seen with PG at the All-Star Game, PG sitting beside Sap on the bench, and that D8 had spoken with PG before signing. It's an "all signs point to" situation, I'll believe this one when I see it. Would be a great move though. Menace, THJr, PG13, Sap, and D8 is stout. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Alex Posted February 20, 2017 Popular Post Report Share Posted February 20, 2017 If we are adding PG13 sign me up regardless of who is being dealt away. There aren't many difference makers to be had this time of year and George is definitely one of them. Ship over Baze, Hardaway, and a pick or two and call it a deal. I know a ton of people are caressing Timmy's basketBALLS, but if it means getting rid of the albatross that is Bazemore than it's a deal that should be welcomed. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Vol4ever Posted February 20, 2017 Premium Member Report Share Posted February 20, 2017 I can't see this unless it's a total tank. Bird would be trading his best player for reserve players, space, and draft picks worth nothing. I certainly would love it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 20, 2017 Report Share Posted February 20, 2017 I won't get my hopes up but.............. I think we would also have to take Monta to give Indy more cap. So it'll be something like: PG and Monta for Baze, Splitter, Scott, Bembry plus picks - I would assume 2017 1st, Minny 2018 1st at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wurider05 Posted February 20, 2017 Report Share Posted February 20, 2017 (edited) Come on!! We never get deals like this. Not the Atlanta Hawks. Not us. Plus I don't think that Larry Bird is that stupid. Edited February 20, 2017 by Wurider05 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DS5 Posted February 20, 2017 Report Share Posted February 20, 2017 I wouldn't mind Baze at the 2, if he's playing next to PG. He wouldn't need to do too much other than defend and spot up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trade PG in general or trade him to us? Reasons to trade him: 1. PG has declined to sign the Designated Player Exception for $200 million plus, Bird is probably concerned about that. Quote Asked about the estimated $219 million contract extension that Pacers president Larry Bird is poised to offer him in July, George told Marc Stein on ESPN Radio's Meet The All-Stars: "As I told Larry, I always want to play on a winning team. I always want to be part of a team that has a chance to win it [all]. That's important. "Say what you want; I want to compete for something. It's frustrating just playing the game for stats or for numbers or to showcase yourself. Man, I want a chance to play for a chance to win a championship 2. If Boston is not offering anything of value, they have to look elsewhere - Boston is probably offering Olynyk, Amir, Rozier and Memphis 1st etc - not the BKN picks or Brown. 3. Do we have the best offer? most likely not. but we don't know what other teams are offering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dejay Posted February 20, 2017 Report Share Posted February 20, 2017 (edited) As much as I'd love Paul George in Hawk gear, there is no way in the hey, hey, HELL that Indiana is doing a deal like this without at least Millsap coming back to them. Pacer fans in Indiana would go nuclear if PG was traded for what is widely regarded as the Hawks B-list players. Larry Bird might as well have a press conference announcing his resignation right after the deal is official. And Danny Ainge would be getting roasted alive in Boston for not parting with the assets needed to make the Pacers take pause and deal him to the Celtics instead. A Hawks fan can dream, though. Paul George to go along with Howard, Millsap, and Schröder? Eff the 'Big 3'; that's a Fantastic Four lineup right there that can challenge for something other than a second-round sweep from the Lebrons...

He's not resigning with Indiana and it's better to get value now than later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
