[@esidery] The Sixers are bowing out of the Paul George sweepstakes before free agency begins, per @ShamsCharania. If Philadelphia is this confident in another plan, they must have assurances elsewhere. Stay tuned.

They must know Ballmer is cracking and offering PG a Kawhi-type deal. This is so Morey saves face.

I would very much like for it to be OG so we can make some moves on draft night without worrying about pricing ourselves out of a free agent (he’s like $10M less than anyone but Ingram who I straight up just don’t want)

It’s gotta be Jimmy right?

The fact that we aren’t going for Paul George is great news. He’s an injury prone 34 year old that chokes every year in the playoffs. Can’t believe some of you guys wanted him here. Not to mention he complained about having to guard teams best players on his podcast, making excuses saying that they lost in the playoffs cos Batum and RoCo weren’t there to do it anymore.

Because pg is only moving in a sign and trade

Maybe Lauri Markkanen is in the cards? He is the player I absolutely want the most.
I just really hope it isn’t Ingram. That would be absolutely terrible. Paul is older but much better and fits better. Ingram would be so bad on this team, he’s basically Tobias Harris imo.

Clips don’t want to max PG. Why did everyone assume Morey would max the guy either? He didn’t want to pay Harden either.

Nah I think PG is gonna use other teams as leverage for a new clipper deal. He’s not tryna leave LA

You’d think that means they have something good planned. Yet, I also wouldn’t be surprised if we did something outrageously stupid.

LeBron will resign in LA due to JJ being new head coach, Now PG isn’t being targeted, the only options are OG, Demar, Ingram or Butler. Id rather have Demar or OG to be honest.
Light_Liberty
lol. This screams, “Paul George told Morey he doesn’t trust him and won’t come to Philly, so the Sixers are bowing out before FA even begins to save face.”

This feels very obviously like it was PG who didn’t want to come to the Sixers

Yes, we did it fam!!

Cade Cunningham YOU are a 76er

Realistically, OG, KCP are the most likely FA options

I’m fine with this.

Yeah, he’ll sign Trevor Ariza, Lou Williams and Nene for bench depth and trade draft picks for Capela to round out his washed up former Rockets trend.

This feels like classic Morey trying to get ahead and saying to PG “no I broke up with you” when PG made it clear he won’t come to Philly
Oh rly??? 👀👀

This is the best news I’ve read in weeks.
