2018 Eastern Conference All-Stars: Kyrie, Wall, LeBron, Giannis, 5-15:??? Seriously that talent drain is some of the worst I've seen

5/20 and 4/22 for Jrue and I would have been ok, as I said earlier. 5/25 is too much. If he he hits the incentives to reach 5/150, then he is worth that money, so I'm not worried about that part. E: he won't hit his incentives

So...what was the Love/Phoenix package again? The Pacers got the 4th overall pick and what else? Cause I think that's way better than getting Oladipo at 20 million.

next year when Lebron goes to the Lakers they should just stop inviting the eastern conference to the playoffs all together.

It looks like Indy took the package that would mean the most wins over the next 3 years without hamstringing them with an old player. So I guess I was wrong and they aren't tanking.

So I guess I was wrong and they aren't tanking. Then why not just take Kevin Love and keep him. He is 28 as opposed to Oladipo's 25 and infinitely better

I wonder if they reintroduced contract incentives for all-star berths, more players would be willing to sign with eastern conference teams I think the best suggestion I've seen is someone trading for Joe Johnson so he can reach double digit appearances

He'll be terrible. Paperback Writer posted:You're right they should've let him go. Hah you think Curry was threatening to leave if he didn't get max? They talked Durant (a younger, far, far better player than Curry) out of a max, but can't get Steph to agree not wreck the team?

I am still totally confused as to the Paul George deal. Regardless of what Boston offered, there was at least one other deal offered that was much, much better than what OKC offered. And if the intention was to get him out of the Eastern Conference, I know of at least one offer from a Western Conference team that involved picks and didn't involve Oladipo's terrible contact. I cannot get my head around this.

I cannot get my head around this. The only possible explanation is that the Pacers think Oladipo has all-star potential and that Sabonis is going to be a solid starter. As far as GMs are concerned, there's no such thing as an 'objectively better' deal, each GM has their own inherently subjective evaluation of every player. Chicago love Dunn, Sacramento love Hield, Indiana love Oladipo... they all think they got a good deal. Time will tell they are all wrong obviously
