Cool Buff Man posted:He won a championship already by pulling off a similar trade, knew when to blow up that team and make the best trade in league history to blow that up, got Isaiah Thomas for nothing and Crowder for Rondo and got to the ECF while keeping all of the picks I find it really strange that people are making GBS threads on Ainge for not renting PG for a year

Metapod posted:I know kanter isn't valuable but the fact his contract wasn't used is blowing my mind I'd rather have Kanter for 20 than Dipo for 20, neither wins you many games but Kanter doesn't have 4 more years.

Time posted:Trading picks to rent Paul George would be stupid as hell. If he was willing to sign an extension, sure. As is,it's incredibly short sighted and CBM is right. The math really doesn't back that it's very short-sighted. Paul George is an All-Star. The probability of getting a star in the top 5 of the draft is probably ~65%. So given the probability of that pick actually landing in the top 5 I'd say at WORST it's a push, assuming that PG resigning is a coinflip

shirts and skins posted:Oh man if Embiid stays healthy (I know, I know, I KNOW) that team legit might make the loving ECF. I'm a big Sixers homer and all, and thought they'd compete for a playoff spot BEFORE the talent drain to the west, but let's not be hasty. Cleveland, Boston, Washington, and Milwaukee are clearly ahead of them. Probably Toronto too, even if they lose Lowry. They're still in that barely scraping into the playoffs tier this year (starting 2 rookies) with Charlotte, Miami, and Atlanta

warcrimes posted:I find it really strange that people are making GBS threads on Ainge for not renting PG for a year Why? Planning for years down the road is fine and all, but you never know what is going to happen in a NBA season, giving up before the season starts is pretty dumb. Boston has decided not to compete with the Cavs next season, but they'll feel pretty dumb if Lebron or Kyrie blow out their knee during the season. They shouldn't give up huge value for what may be a rental, but it doesn't look like the price was high.

No way this is real. Bulls said Boston would not trade the Brooklyn pick without protections and Butler was the more valuable asset at the time.

For those saying it'd be short sighted for Boston to trade for George, they have a ton of picks. They can give up one of them and still be loaded for the future. They are owed first rounders from 4 other teams.
