Paul George is probably the guy I would be most upset to see move at the deadline to a team that's not the Celtics. Not sure how much truth there is to this, but if he's available, Danny has to be ready to outbid any other team for him.

how the hell could Nola get a superstar without giving up Davis. I just dont see why they think they can make these moves.

Turns out they had enough to get Cousins.

I wonder if George is actually available or if Nola was just making calls on him. If he is available, George is still the guy I'd want.

I just asked Paul George if we'll be seeing him around NOLA more often. His reply:"We'll see. I hear the stories."

Maybe he is truly available? Doesn't sound like a guy to concerned about leaving Indy.

NO doesn't have enough left to get George after the Cousins deal. Besides, you don't think Ainge has first dibs with Larry on George?  :laugh:

They obviously did with Cousins.  Dumbass GM Danny Ainge think Tyler Zeller is the Edited.  Profanity and masked profanity are against forum rules and may result in discipline..

Misleading thread title---I take this as they were trying for both, hoping to land one of them---of course Larry Bird wasn't STUPID enough to bite on that garbage that the Kings did.

Not like they are NOW gonna go after George.
Larry Bird was Greater than you think.

Yes, but now, which players remained on their roster to match any bigger deal? No one I think. The only chance they are left is free agency.

I'm seriously struggling to think what assets they have they Indiana could possibly want.

Anthony Davis?
