    "how pg gona get into all-star this yr? doubt he gets voted in, whether hes a laker or a thunder"

    Ya think
    they might be referring to the fact he has been an all star already .... at least? Nah that's too crazy to consider.

    I bet this is Indy's first sold out game.

    Westbrook, George, and Melo are shooting awful, 9-35 combined. But they’re still up because of Adams and because Indy is shooting almost as bad.

    Oladipo with probably his worst shooting night of the season, being guarded by PG13.

    Westbrook, George and Melo shot 10-45 in this game. That’s pathetic. They aren’t crediting Westbrook with his 17th shot, a horribly missed layup attempt for some reason, but I am, so that’s 45. Absolutely saved by their bench tonight.

    They actually won a close game which is actually good. It only means, they're due for a back2back losses.

    I haven't changed my position one bit since the summer.
    1. Paul George to the Lakers is a given.
    2. I'm not trading any of our young assets for a player that's coming here anyway.
    3. The 2018 plan is George and Randle.

    Yeah I'd give them Nance. We're probably better without him anyway.... not because he's a bad player but because Luke plays him too much.

    I agree pg is coming in fa so no need to trade for him. But hypothetically would you do Randle+Dung for pg? Okc never would. I'm just curious for those who really want to keep Randle.
    ( I'd love to keep him btw, if we can).

    If Randle is the sacrifice the island demanded for Dung's flushing then so be it...

    I understand it's hypothetical but no one is taking Deng. We'll just have to wait another year for him to become an expiring contract which may be turn out to be a valuable trade piece or we could drive him to his retirement community. In 2019-20 we'd have to start thinking about resigning Ingram, Ball and Kuzma too.

    And no, I would not trade Ball, Ingram, Kuzma or Randle just to flush Deng.

    You trade for PG-13 only if it doesn't cost Ingram, Ball, or Kuzma. And the only way you can trade Randle is if it's with Deng attached. It's that simple.

    I don't need to include Deng to trade for George honestly.

    I love what Julius has done this season, but it's Paul freaking George. We get Paul George and literally everything changes. We become a must for FAs to meet with this summer. We start looking like a possible playoff team right now. Our future changes dramatically.

    There's no incentive to take Deng if you're OKC. However, if we could find a home for Deng in some separate deal that allows us to keep Randle, then I'm all for it. I don't see that happening though. Given Randle's stellar season I think any trade offer starts and stops with Randle, especially if we're not including Kuzma, Ball, or Ingram.
