What would be the best outcome?

Sign PG alone (with a hope of LeBron) and hope for another superstar in '19.

OR.

Tank for a lottery pick in 19' by letting go of all the veterans that got us wins and hope for a superstar + FA signing in 19'.

Example: Let go of Lopez, Pope, Thomas, Randle; Run with Lonzo/Hart/Ingram/Kuzma.

OR.

Some fusion of the two?


Should we 'Trust The Process' or should we try and be the Heatles?

What do you think?

Is this a serious question? You want to try and make the growing young core lose every night, for a draft pick?

I think Philly is showing everyone that tanking can be irrelevant if you draft players mentally strong enough.

If you ask me, I lean the PG route for the immediate gratification. But is PG enough? What do we need to add WITH him for it to be enough? What do we lose by ending our tank prematurely?

If you really think about it, this is a legitimate question given the Paul George is not a LeBron tier talent.
