Rumors on a few sites that Paul George may actually be tradeable for pacers. Most likely after this season during next years draft to gain draft picks or for a young big.
Sixers are reportably a great destination in the pacers eyes to accomplish both those goals. Sixers have a bunch of firsts and an excess of bigs. So next years draft.
Sixers trade: Noel, staukus, the Sixers first rounder, and either Miami or Okc first rounder.
Pacers trade :George
Pacer get a young big that they really wanted plus a shooter who's numbers will probably be better after this season. They also get a high first rounder and a late first rounder to further there rebuild which will most likely be needed after this season.
Sixers loss a lot but gain a lot. Noel can be replaced by saric or embiid if healthy. They still have the lakers first to get a younger player. But most likely they will use the cap space to add seriously nice young players to pair with that core and George. Sixer immediately become contenders
All contingent apon george and Noel having good seasons. And the pacers would have to have an average year as expected. If they are in contention they won't get rid of goerge.

not nearly enough for a superstar
28 Sep 2015 19:05:27
IND: Embiid, Noel, PHI '16 1st (own), PHI '16 1st (via LAL)
PHI: George

Okafor & Saric for George & Hill

Tregib you said it would take the lakers clarkson Russell and Randle at least to get George but the lakers package might be better than this one. So by your words sixers should give more
28 Sep 2015 23:31:29
The rumors were mainly from one or two sites. Which happened to be sixers fans sites. BUT the trade they discussed was george for a package of Noel or okafor, Saric and picks. The pacers have zero interest in staukas. Most likely would be something like Okafor, Saric, and 2 firsts in order to have any chance of getting him.

The king.
Randle clarkson and russle.
Sixers are giving Noel (aka Randel)their own first rounder which should be top three. (Aka Russell). Stauskisi who is about as good and clarkson in my book since he hasn't proven himself and since they're getting a late first as well so any difference should be made up for there. It's the same package bro.

I Think they'd be more interested in Noel. Lengthily guy who can defend at a high level and plays two ways. Sixer might do saric or as well. But I think that deal is possible.
29 Sep 2015 14:48:22
Stauskas as good as clarkson? Clarkson was a first team all rookie. He proved himself worthy among the west guards and played solid against them. Stauskas doesn't have much since he was also traded in a salary dump. Coming out of the draft they said stauskas was going to be a three point sniper but he did very bad in his first pro year

The king
Again my argument with clarkson is the opinion of most people outside of la. He has played well on a bad team. he was a second rounder remember. No one saw this coming from him. And frankly to expect the same production this season from him is insane. Too many better players around him. I don't think he's a terrible player by any means but he's not an above average guard at this point either. Hard to predict him but if I was betting i'd say he's a average point guard by mid season.
Staukus was the eight pick in the draft last season. Never got a real chance to play. Clarkson on most other teams in the NBA wouldn't have played more then a backup role at best either.
29 Sep 2015 20:53:41
Tre, was agreeing with you til you labeled Noel as a "two way player" Come now, that's like labeling Deandre Jordan as a two way player. Yeah, he scores a few points a game, but that does not count as a realiable offensive player. Until Noel develops any semblence of an offensive game consisting of more than dunks, he is completely a 1 way player.
29 Sep 2015 22:21:01
HAHAHHAA did you just say that Clarkson, being a 1st team all rookie, makes him worthy among the elite western guards? The lakers had no one on the team. To say he is this stud guard is like saying Langston Galloway is a beast. Stats for crappy teams don't mean much. Galloway was second team, I wouldn't even say he was worthy among the other guards on the knicks. You crazy
29 Sep 2015 23:20:56
No pizza just because he was first team all rookie doesn't mean he can automatically play with the top guards. I've ACTUALLY SEEN him play unlike you who bashes the Lakers and their players at any chance you get. Clarkson had good games against the west and east. So stop being a hater.
30 Sep 2015 02:21:42
I actually typically don't mind the lakers? But clarkson is the same as Galloway. Mediocre stats on a terrible team. You see him in the summer league with rookies and scrubs? He was awful. See how he is and how his numbers are when he plays with legitimate players. I watched him last year. He was amazing. He competes with the best in the league. Riiiiigght.
30 Sep 2015 02:26:12
Hey King, wanna know something rather amazing about your stud pg? When he played.11-48, .186 win percentage. When he didn't play, 10-13, .435 winn percange. But hey, I guess wins don't count either. I mean, you did watch him play afterall ;)
30 Sep 2015 03:14:01
Not calling him amazing but holding the MVP to 12 points and having a good game against Paul and Westbrook are a few of games he showed flashes. When he started players like young and Kobe were hurt while boozer and hill also sat games. Funny how you are blaming all the loses on him. He wasn't awful in the summer leauge. He averaged 17 points but could've passed the ball more but of course people like you decide the meaningless games like the summer leauge that don't count. Was the only and you saw him play was against the Knicks in the summer leauge? I would expect that from you.
30 Sep 2015 12:26:39
When did he hold curry to 12? His worst regular season performance I believe was 19/9 against the lakers. The meaningless games of the summer league are indicative of potential. A point guard that can't pass was the issue last year(3assists per game) in college(less assists per game) and continued in summer league. What does it matter if he scores 15 a game if you lost 75% or more of your games. Dude has done nothing yet. Expect whatever you want. Clarkson is a nice story. 2nd round pick. May stick around. But a stud star he is not. Combo guards need to pass successfully. End. Of. Story.
30 Sep 2015 23:31:30
His stats while starting last year were at 5 per game. When guarding curry he held him to 12 points which was most of the game. Lin let him score the rest. Melo seems like he can lead his team to a lot wins am I right? Tell me some combo guards that average 5 assist or more.
01 Oct 2015 03:01:07
He was the pg last year. Wait, so you said he held curry to 12 pts while guarding him? Exactly how many minutes did he guard him? This sounds like it could get funny. Go on.
01 Oct 2015 05:03:46
30 minutes 12 points allowed. Melo can play defense to right? Lead you to wins right? and think you can get the world and thensome for him? Then you also ignore the question of combo guards averaging more than 4 assists. Typical from you

Noel will be a two way player this season. He averaged 13 and 10 post allstar break while bouncing around to two different positions. And still played some really good defense on the other end. I think this kid might be just scratching the surface.
02 Oct 2015 17:08:34
Tre. I think Noel will ultimately be like deandre jordan, and that's NOT a bad thing! Just limited offensively.
King. what is that based on? I would love to see the site that breaks down Currys production per game per defender. What game was that also?
I just like Melo. Besides last year. and with an awful team surrounding him, pretty reliable to get to the playoffs. So yup. ill take him.
Clarkson is your pg. so it doesn't even matter. But let's appease you. First. Clarkson averaged 3.5 assist per game.
Better combo guards who averqaged more assists:
Mario Chalmers, Greivis Vasquez, Tony Wroten, Reggie Jackson, Olidapo, Dragic, Eric Bledose. Additionally would prefer Avery Bradley over him. And that's to name just 7/8 better combo guards.
02 Oct 2015 23:34:24
Chalmers dragic aren't even combo guards. Your basing his stats off of the whole season while I'm basing them off of when he started. When starting he's better at assists the half those people. I watched that warriors lakers game can't remember that exact date but of course you need to see a site because you don't watch games. Clarkson is now playing Sg btw. Reliable to get to the playoffs? The year before last year he didn't make it with stoudimire smith and shumpert.
03 Oct 2015 12:59:57
And the prior 8 years? Those two are listed as combo guards. Search top combo guards big guy. And yes I like proof because you apparently like making things up. A lot. Such as games you sat watching with a note pad to indicate currys point total. You're a joke. Seriously, do you realize how ridiculous things you say are? I don't remember which game, what date, but there was a span where he only had 12 points. It must be true because, because King said so. Good one ye of many fables.
03 Oct 2015 15:41:03
No I actually watch the games unlike you but I remember watching curry having kind of a hard time. You LOVE making things up. You have a serious problem. Wake up and step into the real world and listen to what people have to tell you not just what you want to think. Stop looking at stats and watch some games. Your probably the most dumb person I've talked to
