Pacers Offseason: Let Bidding War Begin
Indiana Pacers forward Paul George (13) points during a game against the Cleveland Cavaliers in game four of the first round of the 2017 NBA Playoffs at Bankers Life Fieldhouse. Paul George can opt out of his contract next summer and become a free agent.Any good negotiation always starts with leverage. The Indiana Pacers lost a huge bargaining chip over Paul George when George failed to make one of the three All-NBA teams.
George might not be one of the six best forwards but he is certainly one of the best 15 players in the league. Any team that trades for him would immediately become a playoff contender, and if the right team trades for him they could become a championship contender.
