How would that change the way some of you perceive trading for him? I think a phone call from Danny and we can sell him on staying, quite easily. He's a guy who wants to win more than anything else, he's concerned about his legacy, the Lakers talk is overstated garbage.

So he tells us that he wants to be here, what would you give for him at point? Do we bother with an inferior Hayward just to hold on to everything we have? 

For me he's option 1A, just like KD was last summer. Paul George is one of the best small forwards i've ever seen, bar none. He took a team with West/Hibbert to game 7 of the ECF for crying out loud. Give this man a team!

I'd love to land PG. I just don't know the price or if Indy would be willing to trade given the ownership situation. I think they'll ask for too much. Like an absurdly unreasonable amount.

The only players and or assets i don't want to see in the mix for him are as follows

IT4
Bradley
Horford
#BK1 because he's an expiring and even his word doesn't change that

Anything else is on the table.

I think a future around Fultz, Jaylen + 2018 BKN pick and whatever else we can develop in the future has a better chance at future contention than our current core + PG - what we have to trade for him.  So I prefer just to stay on course.

That game last night would've been a perfect situation for PG and Hayward.

I think they can offer, and correct me if I'm wrong, Brooklyn pick 2018, c Celtics pick 2018, Memphis pick and Clips pick. Bradley and Zeller. That's a fair Trade. It gets Indy a  full rebuild around Turner and It gets Boston an All star to put next to Horford, IT and Hayward. Good times.

I wouldn't deal Fultz for George or Butler. He just looks too good. I'm dubious about George signing in Boston. He's a west coast guy. Bird has his hands full re-signing him. Magic is trying very hard to get George, but the key for the Lakers will still be the Big. They need that big guy in the middle. So do the Celtics. Horford is a nice piece, but he's no banger. Maybe they'll luck out with Zicic.

If we can get George for Crowder, Bradley, Yabu, 2019 MEM, then I'm down. Frankly, as he's an expiring, that's probably the best offer they're getting.
Isaiah, you were lightning in a bottle.
