Why would a team ready to hit the reset button want Holiday? The deal to make for Paul George is a mortgage the future deal like Brooklyn made for Paul Pierce and KG. If it works out you're a contender. If it fails you're the worst team in the league for a few years before you can even start collecting high picks to rebuild.

IIRC Brooklyn traded 3 future 1sts and a pick swap. A similar deal for George would be 2018 + 2020 picks, a 2019 pick swap and then one of Diallo or 2022 1sts. But if it looks like we're going after PG-13 you have to think there's a chance the Lakers enter the mix and they have enough young assets to beat anything the Pels could offer.

Excellent rental until Lebron becomes a FA the year after.

Cavs gonna rent for one more title, and then LeBron and PG13 both bolt to LA.

I fully believe that PG wants to go to LA today. But bring him here, win a ton of games. Sweat and bleed with AD and Boogie. Fight hard and lose a tough battle in the playoffs.

He does all that, and he is gonna leave for a team full of teenagers and take less money/guaranteed years? You sure?

If there is even a 25% chance we keep him, that's better than any chance we have at adding any other 3rd star anytime soon.

I'd give up 2018, do 2019 and 2020 swap rights. Maybe they want Hill back to mentor the young guys as they go for a rebuild. I would at least try and wouldn't be so sure that it will be just a rental

I would give up anyone besides Boogie and AD for PG-13 or Jimmy Butler. Whoever takes Asik can have him for free.
