My God. No. Just absolutely no. Paul George does about everything better than Parsons. Having George instead of Parsons would put us as the best team in the league. You would have an answer for every team in the league between Harden, George and Howard with solid role players in Beverly, Jones, Asik, Lin, DMo and Hamilton.
Well there's also this little thing called the salary cap that makes this thread actually a good argument. PG is obviously max money, even if he produced at this rate for the rest of the season his hype train and potential is enough to put him over the max. He's obviously also a much better player than Parsons, like what the other poster said if we had him, Harden and Howard it would be like MJ, Pippen and Hakeem in today's NBA. However it depends on what Parsons signs for, if he signs for 7M or less than IMHO having him at that price is way better than PG at the max because you can then spend the rest of the money on other players. Dude's a 18+ scorer already, and his skillset makes him the perfect sidekick to our two franchise players.
Oh god now I have heard it all. Not only did someone in this world just say Harden is better than George, but they also just compared Harden to MJ!!!!!!! You sir have lost all basketball cred and now must start all over in life. CLOSEST THING TO MJ AND PIPPEN!!!! ARE YOU FREAKING SERIOUS! First off neither George or Harden could even hold Pippen's jock strap. So many things wrong with this one statement its unreal. This thread is stupid and then somehow this comment is even worse.
Chill out. Paul George and Scottie Pippen have similar games. Defensive minded players with average offense
Parsons is a better offensive player, George a better defensive player. When I say offensive, I don't mean just scoring. Scoring, passing, handling, movement without the ball.
