I am puzzled by the Clippers strategy. You went all in, traded basically every future you could, so why is a 4th year to Paul George such a problem? Now they lose out on a max salary slot as an over the cap team unless there is a sign and trade.

Celtics bringing back a couple of their reserves.
Last season PG averaged 22/5/3, 41% from 3, 90% from the line, 57% effective FG pct. He's still one of the best players in the NBA. He fits exactly what the Sixers need, someone who can spread the floor (and is willing to do so) and is an excellent defender. Porzingis hadn't won anything before last year either, and now he has a ring.
The Sixers have needed an elite wing since they traded Butler. PG is easily the best one available, and he would cost them nothing but cap space. They don't need him to be THE guy, they just need him to do the things that he's good at, and that he's been doing his entire career. It will cost a lot of cap space but the Sixers window to win a title with Embiid as the centerpiece is getting smaller every year. It's pretty much a no-brainer for Morey.

These NBA contracts are embarrassing. Does anyone think Harden gives a shit anymore? They used to say these guys are worth it because people buy tickets or tune in to see them, but who does that for Harden or KCP for that matter? If I'm one of the 50 or so NBA players who really does move the needle and get butts in seats Im pissed.
