I think his plan is to sign Boogie to the max and max our Jules while turning down Pg13/lbj.

also, I understand the doubts about PG-13 being the primary option on a contender.....but I reject that this is proven fact. I actually lean the other direction that he could be the best player on a contender, but he just needs very strong supporting pieces.

Remember when Lebron wasn't clutch? I also disagree with the idea that PG in LA wouldn't be a super star.

The poster keeps forgetting the 2 max fact on purpose and harps on PG-13.

He knows if 2 max plan happens Julius Randle is as good as gone. Hence the wall of texts

Sounds about right. The incumbent usually is the favorite. Houston makes sense. He's good friends with Chris Paul. He, CP and Harden would make for a formidable big 3. Of course they would have to rearrange the furniture a bit to make it happen. At + 500 we have a punchers chance.

Enough of the strawman.

Nowhere have I ever said that Paul George is not good.

I've said

1) Jimmy Butler is better than him

2) Paul George isn't the main option on a Championship contender. He's Robin/Nightwing, not Superman/Batman.

Now actually try to disagree with either one of those statements without trying to resort to the typical "he doesn't see (player) as a God/Savior of the franchise... he must hate him then!" crap

So unless you can disagree with the actual point, there's nothing for you to contribute to that discussion. Because reading that Paul George isn't "the guy" on a championship roster, and then trying to turn it into "You must hate Paul George" or "He thinks Paul George is no good!!" is just going to equate to either you not reading what was actually said, or you trying to make an argument against a point that was never made. Either way, stick to what was actually said if you're going to address it. Thanks


Isn't this the pot calling the kettle black?

I don't think anyone here is saying PG is KD, yet you make that part of your argument.


Actually someone did say that PG is KD caliber. RIF.

And these same posters continually try to come up with clever ways on how OKC could sign PG.
