Expect the unexpected from now on, Indiana Pacers fans. I don’t think anyone expected the Indiana Pacers to listen to offers on Paul George. We did get an idea of what the Pacers wanted in exchange from the Boston Celtics if they were to trade Mr. George.
According to Mike Ortiz Jr., the Pacers wanted three of four of the following players: Jae Crowder, Jaylen Brown, Avery Bradley and Marcus Smart. They also, of course, wanted the 2017 Brooklyn Nets’ draft pick.
Although Paul George is a four-time All-Star, that is a lot for Boston to give up.
