Paul George anyone ??

lol

If PG was willing to come to Utah there is absolutely no way that value-Danny doesnt make an offer. If for nothing else, then at least throw in something below max to show he is big game hunting.

He did make a comment about not hunting dinosaurs though.... but I dont know if PG qualifies as one.

 

[LogGrad98]

You get PG to sign and you can trade for an all star you are cooking with grease.

That's exactly what the clippers thought.

Don't trade for the guy who is known to be perpetually injured.

You mean Paul George?

You mean Paul George?

He played 80 of a possible 88 games this season...

Hell no. The goal is to build something special here. Not some short term pop that still isn't a contender.

Let's just gloss over the 4 previous years with the clippers where he played 48, 54, 31 and 56. We all know players get healthier as they get older though.

 

[Handlogten's Heros]

Yall really think PG looks around at our max offer and says yes when La, Orlando, Philly are all gonna end up throwing out the max?

Ok

Well while your glossing maybe you should remember one of those seasons was not a full season ...

It's not out of the question if Utah can trade for another high profile player. Believe in miracles.

Stop. There is no denying that he has been injury prone since joining the clippers it's not up for debate.

Your idea of a miracle is terrifying.

That's a record for him! Nice! He had an outlier season in an injury-filled career. Hardly something to bank on given his age.

Also a myth, but we won't get into that here.

Yeah, we shouldn't use facts. Just put all faith in the draft and rookies!

He's played almost exactly 2/3 of his games as a Clipper (regular season). Not great, not terrible, but he's 34 now. I'd be a bit worried about, say, a 4 year max.

Steve Cleveland (coached him) and PG have a good connection. Maybe that could help. Also Butler has some Utah ties.

Maybe we can have the washed up allstars join forces with team Ozempic (Lofton, Sensa) and Markkannen and we can have something.

 

[SoberasHotRod]

Are the Jazz able to open up a max contract slot? I assume if we do it is at the expense of extending Lauri?

 

[Coach Ellis]

He’s old, but I would LOVE to have Jimmy Butler on the Jazz. Dude would definitely come in and be the Alpha from day 1. Would love to see what that would unlock for guys like Sexton and Markkanen.
