So Jimmy Butler and Paul George, 2 All-Star players and 2 of the most well-rounded players in the league, were both traded for far less value than they were worth to teams that are not major contenders (especially Minny). And somehow, Boston, with far more value to offer in return, and own of the historically great franchises (which I'm sure Butler and George would have supported being traded to), couldn't get them?

So we should believe this story that conveniently makes Aingle look competent, despite failing to obtain these top players; he was just a victim of inexcusable incompetence (Chicago and Indy)?

Yeah. This seems like a good example of fake news.

Wasn't the issue that BOS doing the deal now takes them out of the Hayward running?

So they wanted to hopefully land Hayward, then make the trade to get both?
