All Cavs can really offer them is Love. Which they might take because they can literally get nothing else.
Can Clippers offer them anyone or are all their good players free agents?

Austin Rivers!
I agree that Boston shouldn't max him. Which is why getting Fultz made so much sense. You get one more year out of IT while Fultz is developing, then if you let IT walk, you have your replacement.
Now, if IT walks, you have no one to fill his role. The Celtics aren't going to be contenders with Terry Rozier or Marcus Smart as their starting point guard.
A dude that is capable of putting up 30 points a game is going to get a max contract from someone. If Boston doesn't offer the max, someone else will.
Pacers already have a black hole Center who can only score and can't play Defense who is their 6th man
Dario would be dope tho

I'm honestly wondering what moves the Cavs can realistically make this offseason....
Im sure they'll find a way to service us fans.....
;_;
Watch Griffin leave or some shit....
The Sixers won 28 games last year with a lineup of
McConnel
Stauskas
TLC
Saric
Holmes
for most of the year. Brehs, that's gonna be our backup unit this year minues Saric
SAM HINKIE IS FUCKING VINDICATED
Also, in other incredible news, since the Sixers are getting Fultz, they no longer have any interest in Lowry which means we dont have to sign a 32 year old pg to a 4 year max deal

I hope you guys do it anyway
They should offer KCP a max deal. Detroit would most likely match but you never know. He would be a great fit with the rest of the roster.
Im thinking we're probably going to offer Porter and KCP a max deal, but I doubt we get either.
We do need a backup PF though. I wouldnt be surprised if we went after a vet PF for cheap
That's all true but clearly Ainge doesn't see Fultz developing into a star if he was willing to give them to a divisional rival.
And IT will not be a 30ppg scorer at the start of his max.

This happens all too often in the NBA. Every tall Pg was the next Magic or Penny. Every 6'6ish atheltic guard was the next Jordan. Every undersized SG was the next Iverson. Every short PF was the next Barkley or Rodman. All the while completely ignoring what makes those guys total outliers.

They have a chance if LeBron plays all 48.
The game of forever.
I can't believe Cavs are about to make the biggest comeback in history since the America's Cup. Golden State gonna lose when they were up 3-0. Cavs got too much momentum now. Lebron really is KD and Stephs daddy. Finals Curry is real.

# Cavs and # Pacers have indeed discussed Paul George, but Indy said to be in very early stages of making calls. Talks just beginning.

Love for George
Bradley for JR the 🐐
RIP Steph x KD
LeBron wins again

That'll probably get negotiated down. They gain nothing by keeping PG. If they drop PG they can start tanking.
Still losing to the Dubs. 😎😎

Not sure why a rebuilding team wants Love's contract though.

Interesting, how many years are left on Love's contract?
It's what the Cavs would have to give in a trade, I guess. Would have to give up more too.
They could probably shop George to a really bad team for more picks though.
I think it will probably require a third team. Denver probably makes the most sense on paper. They already tried to deal for Love in 2014, they have had a desire to land a big name for a while now (Wade last summer, PG at the deadline), they have young non-essential assets to move, and they probably see themselves on the verge of making a leap after last year.

Fyre x Shump x picks for George
Both their contracts are short , don't cost to much and Pacers will tank next season

No one wants to live in Cleveland. Plus Lebron will be 33 this year. He doesn't got many years left and might not even stick with the Cavs that much longer either.

Lol we really don't have any young talent. Besides Felder who we bought a pick for. We got Richard Jefferson out here
George really ruined his own trade value here with how much he's been hinting at wanting to go to LA. Pacers could have conned Magic into a trade by saying if he was traded now he would probably stay with that team, and there are other lucrative offers they're looking at...
He lowered his trade value so he can go to the Lakers with their young core in tact.
Luckily, the Lakers aren't like the Knicks ala Melo trade.
PG made it obvious that he wanted out, but then the Pacers came out and said they plan to build around him.

He said he was gone during this past season
Bird was dumb af to not trade him after the all star break
Could have easily tanked too
Bird should have accepted Celtics late picks in this years draft x next years draft x Smart x OLYNK 🐐 for George
