1) George is basically what Tatum would be if he maxed out. Except George is just now entering his prime just turning age 27. It would take 5 years+ for Tatum to reach George's level, if he ever does.

2) Jaylen is a different type of player than Hayward and George on the wing. He already knows the system, he is already very good one on one defender, and is a top athlete in the league. He fits better with George and Hayward.

3) We retain all of our 2018 picks giving us the ammo to go after Anthony Davis when he eventually goes on the trade market.

4) We have IT and Horford who are all-stars, if we build around the youth , there is no guarantee we will be able to land players as good as IT and Horford to put around them, like they would be next to Hayward and George(who we already know are all star/ all nba players just entering their prime turning 27).

Tatum,AB, Jae, Rozier and addition non lottery pick.

IT.       Smart
Brown. Green
Hayward.
George.    Jerebko?
Horford.    Zicic

You think Indiana is going to trade Paul George for a 19 year old rookie?

Was Tatum the only piece in the trade ? He was just the #3 pick in the draft

An offer of #3, AB and Jae(starters), Rosier, and an additional 1st is what I proposed.

Might be able to take Rosier and the additional pick out of the offer.

*fingers crossed*
In the summer of 2017, I predicted this team would not win a championship for the next 10 years.

3 down, 7 to go.

1.) He literally listed four other pieces in the deal.

2.) The Pacers and everyone else in the world knows that George is going to walk next summer. They have absolutely no leverage in trade talks. They'd be thankful if all they got in return was Tatum.

Yeah. I honestly think Tatum, Bradley and Crowder would be more than enough given the fact that the Pacers know they are going to lose George for absolutely nothing next summer if they don't trade him between now and then.

As a prospect I like Tatum MUCH more than Brown, but I agree that Brown fits better with George/Hayward

Yea, if we take Rosier out of the deal it balances our roster much better

IT.        Rosier
Smart  Green
Hayward  Jaylen
George.     Jerebko
Horford.    Zicic

Don't forget we don't necessarily have to send Jae and/or AB to Indy, we simply have to off load their contracts to teams with cap space while getting picks back , and maybe even a big man on a rookie deal back.(probably have to move Rosier in that scenario for salary reasons).


So we would be trading AB,Jae and Tatum for PG13 and maybe 2 mid to late 1st rd picks. That looks much more attractive to C's fans

Common sense pretty much dictates that

Thomas
Brown
Tatum
Horford
Brooklyn 2018 pick (unless worse than the LA pick)

should all be considered untouchable


When people are free to do as they please, they usually imitate each other.

That is a gross overpay. Crowder/Bradley and then non Brooklyn picks. It shouldn't take much more than that considering what Butler ended up going for. Highly unlikely they throw in Tatum too.

Not if you want to preserve all your draft picks next year for a run at Anthony Davis. The LA pick will have an extra year of service , with Tatum having already played a year of his contract.

Brk 18
LA/ Sac
Box 18
Clipper
Mem
Plus picks you could get in separate deals for AB and Jae in order to clear enough salary to fit Hayward and George.

Giving Jayson up for one year of Paul George would be monumentally stupid.

If Ainge's long term plan is to get Anthony Davis, he can't be spending any significant assets on a guy like PG. All our good assets, including Tatum, would have to be off limits, and we'd have to be frugal with cap space.

That seems like a pipe dream, IMO. AD would be awesome but it seems so many different things would have to go your way that you can't plan for, that you can't sit around and bide your time hoping he becomes available.

Draft great players with our 2 good picks next year - assuming we still have them - and hit the mark with Tatum and Brown, and we won't need big time free agents. We'll be more concerned about keeping our own players than what's up with someone else's.
