If this deal is the table, you take it ( This is a response to those who say Paul George is not worth it, for whatever reason)
This deal, though, would never be on the table. This deal would actually confuse most pundits established around the league.
I'll be super honest. From my time in pro sports, if I saw a deal like this listed on the wire, my first thought would be Paul George did something criminal or so controversial that it mitigated the cost format. Like if there was a video of him beating up a couple of 7 year old elementary school children. Like drinking a bottle of whiskey on IPhone footage, breaking the empty bottle on one kids head then stabbing the other with the broken bottle type of mess.
Take the talent, worry about the rest later.
The above is the best justification for the Knicks trading for Melo. The problem was they should have immediately retraded him once he signed a long term deal ( without a NTC)
