[Haynes] Philadelphia 76ers are expected to aggressively pursue Paul George and is a legitimate threat in luring the star away from Los Angeles, sources say.

Another 34, soon to be 35 year old playoff dropper on a team full of playoff droppers

Sixers have no idea what to do with

They’re loading up the process part 2 in 3 years max

Wouldn’t that put them near the salary cap? Embiid, Maxey, PG is nice but it would be a steep drop off after that.

Good for them. They’re still going out in the 2nd round tho.

Another second round exit before Embiid asks out
Tehazoo
PG would be a solid 3rd option for Philly but man that’s a lot of money you’re going to have to give to a injury prone 34 year old

Anyone is better than Tobias Harris so it will be a plus for them lol

I for one hope they drop a ton of money on PG. he literally is one of the most overrated players, still won’t get them past the 2nd round
PepeSylvia11
That’s cute. Another aging, injury-prone guy on the downswing. Fine by me
TheTurtleOne
Embiid PG is just a bit more healthy Kawhi PG lol
CreatiScope
Didnt Harden poison the well for the Sixers by telling PG what a shit head Morey is? Feel like PG is using the Sixers to get what he wants out of the Clips but has no intention of leaving LA. But that’s just me.
2) they will be a second apron team after Maxey’s extension

it is funny that the 76ers got a 2028 first from the Clippers and a 2029 pick swap for Harden and are now looking to be a threat to get Paul George, but I don’t understand the value of the Clippers playing this game when they own none of their own picks (outright or swaps) until 2030… at the very least they need to tread water until then

Gonna be funny when Paul George and Embiid are both hurt by the playoffs. Paul George’s contract will immediately be bad.

Can’t wait to watch idiotic 76ers fans somehow claim that they are a real threat in the East if they get PG lmfao.

it’s fun getting to watch this play out as the Squidward looking up then putting the shades back on meme

He’s always been overrated. Never really thought why people think he’s so good. He hasn’t done anything.

These idiots sign ambulance free agents and then wonder why their entire rosters are injured in the post season.

Like I’ve said so many times: all you need to do is show the 76ers a Celtics jersey and they’ll crap their pants.
gonna give a hot take: this actually would make them pretty formidable for at least one season. it’s a move for an extremely small, win-now window.

PG has always been overrated in my eyes and had loser energy no matter what team he’s played on.
Now he’s older and hurt way more often, so please Philly, pay that guy near 50 million a year for multiple years. I would actually love that so much as a C’s fan lol.

Still not worried
[Different jersey, same result](https://youtu.be/oGmfr6EIpGc?si=9wSB3XXP7T-6kfWA)
If they sign him
1) they’d only have $15 mil left in cap space
2) they will be a second apron team after Maxey’s extension

Perennialdisappointment P
They’d be paying a lot just to lose in the 2nd round.
Good! Dude hasn’t won shit and is overrated af.
The “when healthy” all stars
I hope the fuck they do!!!
chances are george and embiid will both be on the bench with injuries next post season doesn’t even matter
Oh well
