Celtics will trade BKN 2017 for PG, not Butler. Starting to think these George rumors are starting to add up....

Lol, George will be a Celtic if this is true. I don't think Ainge is offering the Brooklyn pick, but we'll see.

It would make sense. He's is one guy that is DEFINTELY testing FA after next season.

I just cannot see Indiana trading him.  It would have to be a Godfather offer,

I'd try to keep Brown.  Just so much higher ceiling for him.

  • I'm a Paul Heyman guy.
I'm really hoping that Danny offer Jaylen Brown, Avery Bradley, Amir Johnson's expiring, two 1st round picks ('17 Brooklyn, '19 Memphis/LAC) and two 2nd round picks (any two they want) for Paul George and get it over with. Maybe we take LaVoy Allen's contract too if need be. That's an atleast a top 3 pick, a great prospect, a really good established player and an expiring.

If Larry says no to that, then lets move on.

I don't want Jae Crowder to be traded. That contract is as best as you can possibly have for an established player who can d a lot of things.
2019 CStrong Historical Draft 2000s OKC Thunder.
PG: Jrue Holiday / Isaiah Thomas / Larry Hughes
SG: Paul George / Aaron McKie / Bradley Beal
SF: Paul Pierce / Tayshaun Prince / Brian Scalabrine
PF: LaMarcus Aldridge / Shareef Abdur-Raheem / Ben Simmons
C: Jermaine O'neal / Ben Wallace

I'm in for that trade... I'd miss Brown but it's worth it for George. He'd be perfect for this team
