Could the New York Knicks snag Paul George, the Sixers' top off-season target?

Locked on 76ers cohosts Keith Pompey and John Mitchell talks about the New York Knicks interest in Los Angeles Clippers forward Paul George and what the Sixers rival has to offer. They both agree that Dejounte Murray would be a solid backup trade option for less money. And they believe the Sixers should select Isaiah Collier with the 16th pick in NBA draft if they keep the pick and he's available.

Should have waited a new minutes to get the news of the bridges trade 😂😂😂

[@ryanrowe1975]

Mikal Bridges are trading to the Knicks for Bojan Bodganovic and draft picks

[@Travelling_wm]

So be it. Not giving up picks for PG13. Also not pivoting and signing a dude for 45M that can’t get me 20ppg and is always hurt…. OG👀. My pivot, 2 FRP for Murray, give them Bball too if they really need a player. 1 FRP and 3 SRP for Jermai Grant. That’s 55M. Have 10M in cap space and 8M room exception left. Can go get a decent role player, keep Oubre, resign Batum to the min. Maybe use that 10m on Buddy. They can also do a crafty S&T with KMJ.

Report: Nets trading Mikal Bridges to Knicks for Bojan Bogdanović, draft picks

[@phillyrich3249]

What the Sixers should do is get Miles bridges and D Murray that solves a lot of problems with perfect fits, but the background of bridges is going to ruin that

[@nicewithit1921]

If the Knicks get Paul George. We need to try to sign OG and trade for Mikal Bridges. Those two moves would help take care of the wing defense. Look for players that has that dog in them. Sometimes you don't need to make the home run move, in order to win. We just need players that is willing to lay it on the line and compete every night!!

[@keithbates4213]

Facts totally agree

Bro we not letting og go. You can forget that😂 , Im takin OG over Pg any day.

In what world can you get OG and Bridges? 2 of the most coveted wings in the nba

[@nicewithit1921]

@@terryhanahoe8373in this world for the right price..different rumors have the Knicks getting Paul George. Depending on how the Knicks get PG...OG might be available for the right price.

I won’t be mad if Paul George goes to the Knicks.

[@marcSGordon]

Fantastic let the Knicks go and get a four year deal so the last two years when Bronson gets his super max they will have to suffer through Paul George at 37 and 38

[@NoContainerNoGas]

Yea but og is humble, he will be graceful in old age like Vince Carter, he will still be able to produce on the bench and he doesn't have a big ego. I get your point but pg seems to be very level headed and easy to please, I think any team will be happy to have him around even as he ages...he not like a Draymond at 37 right?

[@jrhaydon939]

Hes a 34 yr old vet that puts up good numbers,but he doesn’t strike fear in anyone.

[@terryhanahoe8373]

But he fits on any team so well. 2 way wing that can score 20-25pg, spread the floor, etcc... He would make either the knicks or 76ers alot better

@@terryhanahoe8373I disagree Embiid and Maxey would give B.I a lot of room to operate and I don’t think he reached his ceiling yet

[@terryhanahoe8373]

@@shizzoflex3121 Philly will run the offense through Embiid and at times through Maxey. So BI would be the 3rd option. A bad shooter who's a drive first guy is a bad 3rd option. A player like PG who's a very good shooter and defender would be a much better 3rd option. It's all about fitting into roles in the NBA.

I get BIG Sean May vibes from Zach Edey. Great college big but game does not translate well to the NBA

[@richardgrant6767]

Pleeeeease let the Knicks take PG. I'm expecting them to snag Mikal Bridges.

[@terryhanahoe8373]

MB will be a knick in 2 years. I want PG but if giving him a 4 year 250mil deal makes them not get MB in 2 years then don't trade for him. The knicks current roster with MB would be the best team in the nba. They would compete with the Bulls/Warriors for the best record of all time. They would be impossible to stop on offense by having so many 3 point shooters around Brunson. And be nasty on D with MB and OG locking down everyone

[@DaNastyOne1]

Let them rain. We don't want P.G anyway

[@terryhanahoe8373]

If either the Knicks or 76ers get PG they'll be the favored to win the NBA championship. He just fits so perfect on both teams

[@amonone399]

Paul George is not the right fit for the sixers, but sadly the sixers don't have good front office people. Instead of looking for the right fit, the sixers look for stars the sixers don't even have a GM, he is a star hunter. The sixers do not have any player development at all, the star hunter and coach both do not like to play the young players.

[@terryhanahoe8373]

How does he not fit? He's a 2 way wing. He fits on every team. 76ers would be favored to win the chip if they have Embid, Maxey, PG

@@amonone399 I'm a knicks fan. I don't care if philly loses. With Embiid/Maxey 76ers are a top 4 team in the east. With PG they are prob the best team in the NBA. I don't think some of you realize what a perfect fit PG would be for philly.

Don’t want Paul George because of his age and salary but to say he’s not a good fit is ridiculous. He’s literally a perfect fit unfortunately he’s not 27 years old and healthy.
