@@teelove4443 It allows you to understand where the communication broke down and who the fans have to blame. Paying a 37 year old 50 mil a year is insane. The Clippers losing him for nothing is also crazy
It is what it is at that point. Live with the results. The clippers had five years (more like 4 years) of being contenders. I mean, back when the trade happened, you do the trade 10/10 times. There was no guarantee that Shai would have turned out the way he is now if he stayed on the Clippers. The Clippers got Kawhi (FMVP) and PG (3rd in Regular Season MVP voting) in their primes. If the second apron wasn't a thing, I'm sure they would have been more willing to give PG exactly what he wanted. The clippers opted for flexibility with the new CBA. Which I think is the second best option. The best being PG staying.
THATS IT! I couldnt figure out why this was cringy but thats it! PG seems like a good dude and pro-athletes MUST be delusional to be successful but hearing him say “it was a tough week” after being offered $20M/yr NET is 🥜 🥜🥜
turning down 45 mill per year when you won absolutely nothing, while him and kawhi will go down as 1 of the worst free agency signings in NBA history is crazy.
200 mill for a 34 is crazy too. Got love for PG but giving him the max would of put the clippers on a deeper hole with asets, at the end of the day it’s just business

Them offer Paul that 2yr $60M was basically like getting an experienced mechanic, welder, carpenter etc that’s been doing this for 20 years plus and saying “yeah we will offer you $25/hr”

He specified it, and said, it was because he was asked to take a pay cut and it was just a 3 year deal, and he was asked that on the base that he was promised Clippers want him to retire in LA. that's something else than getting a max contract with a no trade clause.

PG is great, but also gotta remember that he is 34 years old, father time is around the corner. In about 3 years he might not be the same player. Thats probably what the clippers was thinking when they tried to low ball and also not add the no trade clause. NBA teams prioritize youth and longevity first💯
The same thing applies to PG though his window for making max money is closing so he's gotta grab what he can. These team ain't loyal, it's all lip service till its on paper.

I love that take on it from P. They say it's a business, then it's a business, and you gotta make the best decision for you and your fam. I mean they said it.
This is the best thing about player podcast, you hear DIRECTLY from the source. Sucks that PG is no longer a Clipper, but he’s a perfect fit with Embiid and Maxey.
How on earth can PG think he should "get what Kawhi got"... Huh!?! Remember he be hitting the side of the backboard in playoffs, no playoff success, always injured... Kawhi is a 2 time Finals MVP and has 2 RINGS!! C'mon PG has yet to deliver in Post season.
You didnt get it. Hes saying he wouldve taken less to stay because he liked playing in LA. He’s saying if you want to potentially trade him, then he wants his money. 30 mil a year for him is disrespectful also
Clippers would have been so crippled doing a max or a no trade clause. Respect to Paul for realizing they would have just traded him if he took less, but it makes sense for both sides.
I’ll be honest I love pg but maybe I think kahwi got what he got for what he did In Toronto he single handily willed that team to a chip, when they were never even viewed as a contender he was coming in with that resume and probably thought he do it again with the clippers. You never even been to the finals pg its resume vs resume and he has two of those rings to your zero 🤷🏽♂️
Someone didn’t watch that run. PG was solid but he wasn’t carrying the Clips. Kawhi put the backpack on the first round series and Reggie Jackson made all of the clutch plays vs the Jazz
@@makingmoney8470That was Kawhi carrying until injury and Mann’s 40 burger to comeback 20 down Game 6 vs the Jazz. Look at Kawhi’s stats for the entire 2021 run. PG does not deserve Kawhi’s contract
Interesting thing Paul George was there in the playoffs trying to hold it down multiple times. Kawhi just finessed the clippers again considering over the last 5 years he’s done nothing except blow a 3-1 lead against the nuggets. PG is actually more valuable.
it doenst matter wheter we or the Clips think he is worth that money.. It only matters what PG thought,... In the end he got what he thought he was worth.. Do you .. Wish George four more healthy seasons men.. Love
@@maxmeier532 it’s not about how many players it’s the fact the NFL will pay their good players pennies while they make billions and probably make more money than the NBA. The NFL will pay a super star $10 million a year or depending on who it is the average 4 year deal for a good player might only be like $30 million unless you’re the top tier superstar players the NFL isn’t paying much and their contracts aren’t guaranteed meanwhile a average bench player might get $60 - a $100 million in the NBA.
The amount of power NBA players have is hilarious. I will always side with the workers in any industry, but they live on a different planet from us regular folk not just because of how much they make, but the things they can negotiate 😭
You and kawhi were healthy in 2020 when y’all blew that 3-1 to Jokic. What the heck does the clippers owe you when they sacrificed 4 years for you and Kawhi and you couldn’t even have 1 finals trip, At least lakers won a title and got to a WCF
NBA players are more than blessed,can you imagine feeling disrespected for 60 million dollars in 2 years,that is the salary of medical doctor in 150 years. These guys are earning crazy money,some NBA players are now signing 60 million dollar a year contract now.
Paul, even though you made the All-Star team, you are no longer an All-NBA level talent at the age of 34 and you’re injury prone. You deserved more than $30M per year, but you do not deserve $53M per year on a four year deal and you’re delusional for thinking that. I don’t care about the Clippers or the 76ers, but you said that you would bring a title to the Clippers after they gave up a lot to get you and banked on you. They offered you $50M per year and I doubt that it was the lack of a no-trade clause that made you turn it down. I’m not surprised that you would make excuses about the situation when you can’t keep your word either though. Good luck in Philadelphia.
I personally don't think Paul George is a max player but I know he will get the max. That being said, even I think Paul George got done dirty here. If what he said was true then LAC should have given him the no trade clause.
@@_fredo8 You not wrong but Kawhi already signed and Paul George hadn't yet. Perhaps LAC was okay with losing him for nothing, I don't know but I was under the impression that LAC wanted to keep these 2 together since they gave up so much for them.
Nah PG trippin. No traded clauses should be banned. All the games he missed and he still asks for a no trade clause on top of getting the Kawhi contract smh PG greedy. They invented load management for them
Had to scroll too far to see this comment. PG always has an excuse for this stuff. They didn't wanna trade for AD, I wanted to stay! I wanted to stay in OKC with Russ! I wanted to retire a Clipper! It wasn't about the money!
Wow pg love the podcast to tell your side of the story I knew alittle inside but now this makes so much sense happy you betted on yourself I’m a clippers fan but ima root for you in Philly bro.
Playoff P remembers what Steve Ballmer did to Blake Griffin. Thats why he wanted the "no trade" clause and once the Clippers said nope. He knew it was better to go somewhere else.
Only the Elite should have a No-Trade clause, PG isn’t one of those players, I agree with him on the money end tho. Team can’t limit its options with a no trade if something good comes up, he should’ve just let that go and played his ass off.
Dude he is worth it we don’t need him to be super man we just need him to play with embiid and maxy that’s it they paid Harris see what he did 😂 pg wayyyyyyyyyy better then Harris if it clicks it’s gonna be a problem
@@tyreecegrange9522too bad either the C’s and knicks gonna clap the sixers every playoffs. i honestly feel really bad for sixers fans when reality hits them in the face😕
You’re forgetting that taxes will take at least half of that depending what state your in and the income of that state and you still have to pay your agent. He still will get millions but pg is an all star player. Can’t blame him for wanting more.
Not saying your wrong but Paul George is the most important player on the team 74 games played career high from 3pt and fg kawhi is the great unavailable superstar this league has ever seen but key word is unavailable
Get your money man, but… 1. You’re not better than Kawhi, nor deserve the same money. Availability has nothing to do with it because more people pay to see Kawhi. 2. You slumped for big periods during the season, I watched every clip game and could clearly see you weren’t engaged. Understandably, but you guy’s should’ve seeded higher and it’s obvious now why you didn’t. 3. Your streaky play this year proved your a third option, if Philly wants to pay you that money to be a 3rd option so be it, I don’t think other teams including the clips think a 3rd option is worth that much. Start of the year you said you were number 2, now you want the same money as 1, and you settled to be 3…. You’ve always been inconsistent with your weird ass statements.
Yup…George sees himself like a LeBron WHICH he is not tier 1, tier 2…BUT in my eyes a tier 3 star -So glad Knicks did NOT sign part time player George!
@@skeet88 Kawhi is a two time champion and has two finals MVPs and lead a team to a ring, so he’s proven what he can do. When he’s healthy, he can lead a team to a ring. WTF has Paul George done?
well bro you need to put it in relations… lets say you are one of the top 2 workers and your boss makes 5 million in profit a year and you only get payed 50.000 🤷🏼♂️ you would feel disrespected too. You are the reason customers come to pay
@@Kingta17 okay i try again for you... PG13 sells jerseys, people come to watch him play people follow his podcast or whatever. He has a certain worth. If he takes less then who gets all the money. Multi Billionair Steve Balmer. They move into a new arena. PG is selling tickets he is still a star player. Just to put to you in perspective 30 Mill Dollar Players: Chris Paul, Jeremy Grant, Jordan Poole, Porzingingis, Herro, Hartenstein,... Damn PG13s Name is worth more than theirs,... the money he creates for the clippsers they need to pay him. He is still an all-star. So lets imagine you are a club promoter. Club is always crazy full and bouncing. So you boss makes a million a night and he pays you 500 $ but you are the one bringing half of the people.
Shiiiiiiiid how not to? If kawhi don’t play what are u evaluating? No show no stats so pg is the best by default 🤷🏾♂️ shit if Bron on my team he the best player but if he hurt shit it’s my show🤷🏾♂️
Yes he is lol. I've heard a million times in my life that he grew up in the LA area. Why would he lie and say he's from there if it was public knowledge that he wasn't
PG didn't deserve no trade clause but deserved more than 2 yrs at 60. Anyway, PG is not a post season winner so clippers letting him go is the correct decision.
Can’t believe 76ers signed him for 48 million a year till he’s 38 years old for putting 22 points 5 rebounds and 3 assists on 47%.. worst contract in the nba beside Beal

PG really told us that they gave him the Blake Griffin speech during negotiations

"it's not about the money..."
"...at least give me my money"
I'm not feeling sorry for this dude at all lol
Yeah this was kinda wack lol just. Say you James harden and we good lmao
You didnt get it. Hes saying he wouldve taken less to stay because he liked playing in LA. He’s saying if you want to potentially trade him, then he wants his money. 30 mil a year for him is disrespectful also
@@Skraticksmany nba fanatics cant understsand english😂😂
Not sure he asked you to though.
you don’t have to fam, he bouta run it up in Philly he got what he wanted & then some
Clippers would have been so crippled doing a max or a no trade clause. Respect to Paul for realizing they would have just traded him if he took less, but it makes sense for both sides.
YOO ... HOW TO MAKE IT TO THE NBA: BRONNY JAMES - ua-cam.com/video/Tf3Bhpq9JoE/v-deo.html
I’ll be honest I love pg but maybe I think kahwi got what he got for what he did In Toronto he single handily willed that team to a chip, when they were never even viewed as a contender he was coming in with that resume and probably thought he do it again with the clippers. You never even been to the finals pg its resume vs resume and he has two of those rings to your zero 🤷🏽♂️
Bro the reason the clippers made their only WCF and they didn’t sign him lol.
Right
Someone didn’t watch that run. PG was solid but he wasn’t carrying the Clips. Kawhi put the backpack on the first round series and Reggie Jackson made all of the clutch plays vs the Jazz
@@supremeleem9488 correct and Terrance Mann going beserk
@@supremeleem9488pg is the only reason we made it to the conference finals
@@makingmoney8470That was Kawhi carrying until injury and Mann’s 40 burger to comeback 20 down Game 6 vs the Jazz. Look at Kawhi’s stats for the entire 2021 run. PG does not deserve Kawhi’s contract
That's 🔥 pg speaking on it most players don't speak on the behind the closed doors 💯
Yes they do yall just never fn listen
I still remember what they did to Blake Griffin

Crazy work smh
Interesting thing Paul George was there in the playoffs trying to hold it down multiple times. Kawhi just finessed the clippers again considering over the last 5 years he’s done nothing except blow a 3-1 lead against the nuggets. PG is actually more valuable.
“I ain’t taking nobody word unless it’s in Writing”
it doenst matter wheter we or the Clips think he is worth that money.. It only matters what PG thought,... In the end he got what he thought he was worth.. Do you .. Wish George four more healthy seasons men.. Love
PG played it smart wish him all the success with the 76ers
This just shows how different NBA and NFL contracts are 2 years for $60 million is damn near a 5 year max contract for some NFL players now
Should have been a baller
All guaranteed in the NBA too.
well, there is a lot more NFL players than NBA players. Around three times more.
@@maxmeier532 it’s not about how many players it’s the fact the NFL will pay their good players pennies while they make billions and probably make more money than the NBA. The NFL will pay a super star $10 million a year or depending on who it is the average 4 year deal for a good player might only be like $30 million unless you’re the top tier superstar players the NFL isn’t paying much and their contracts aren’t guaranteed meanwhile a average bench player might get $60 - a $100 million in the NBA.
3:42 this going on during the season is crazy work from the Clippers
This is good 🍿 you got a new supporter bro.
The amount of power NBA players have is hilarious. I will always side with the workers in any industry, but they live on a different planet from us regular folk not just because of how much they make, but the things they can negotiate 😭

I love how pg explain stuff so you see from him pov and how he processing the situation.
it’s only about the money lol
Finally, we get to hear the real truth of what happened. Instead of ESPN, guessing all the time.
You and kawhi were healthy in 2020 when y’all blew that 3-1 to Jokic.
What the heck does the clippers owe you when they sacrificed 4 years for you and Kawhi and you couldn’t even have 1 finals trip,
At least lakers won a title and got to a WCF
Aye man thanks again for Shai
He said it before , he could have gone to clippers for free but he did sign and trade so okc could get something
But people slander him becs of that
Facts lol
It’s funny how people don’t see how the franchises low ball players multiple times which obviously make players look worse in public.
2 for 60 isn’t bad considering you didn’t play 60 games for them up until this season
Philly deal better
They never went to the west finals until he got there
@@Mavsforlife41and he choked the previous time
To feel disrespected being offered 30mil a year.. that’s a job offer every regular American would love to have
NBA players are more than blessed,can you imagine feeling disrespected for 60 million dollars in 2 years,that is the salary of medical doctor in 150 years.
These guys are earning crazy money,some NBA players are now signing 60 million dollar a year contract now.
Paul, even though you made the All-Star team, you are no longer an All-NBA level talent at the age of 34 and you’re injury prone. You deserved more than $30M per year, but you do not deserve $53M per year on a four year deal and you’re delusional for thinking that. I don’t care about the Clippers or the 76ers, but you said that you would bring a title to the Clippers after they gave up a lot to get you and banked on you. They offered you $50M per year and I doubt that it was the lack of a no-trade clause that made you turn it down. I’m not surprised that you would make excuses about the situation when you can’t keep your word either though. Good luck in Philadelphia.
It was definitely the no trade clause since he knew he could get more money elsewhere
Facts
Yeah PG was around when Blake Griffin took a deal without a no clause & end up shipping hom to Detroit Pistons
I personally don't think Paul George is a max player but I know he will get the max. That being said, even I think Paul George got done dirty here. If what he said was true then LAC should have given him the no trade clause.
Preach
Max is regular 20 point players now he’s not a super max player
Why would they give him one though? Kawhi doesn't even have one and Kawhis resume is way better than PG
He’s not a max player. Philly will find out soon enough
@@_fredo8 You not wrong but Kawhi already signed and Paul George hadn't yet. Perhaps LAC was okay with losing him for nothing, I don't know but I was under the impression that LAC wanted to keep these 2 together since they gave up so much for them.
Dude said the Clippers offered him 2 years, 60 million doallars, and he felt " disrespected." Wouldn't we all like to be disrespected like that???
Nah PG trippin. No traded clauses should be banned. All the games he missed and he still asks for a no trade clause on top of getting the Kawhi contract smh PG greedy. They invented load management for them
He never wanted to leave Indiana either
YOO ... HOW TO MAKE IT TO THE NBA: BRONNY JAMES - ua-cam.com/video/Tf3Bhpq9JoE/v-deo.html
Had to scroll too far to see this comment. PG always has an excuse for this stuff. They didn't wanna trade for AD, I wanted to stay! I wanted to stay in OKC with Russ! I wanted to retire a Clipper! It wasn't about the money!
You did right Pg know your worth
He isn’t worth the max though
Desperate ass sixers. He did well though
What has Paul George done for the Clippers to deserve max respect?
Nothing
He got to the ECF with Kawhi, what has Kawhi done??
@@emiliorodarte4408Mann’s 40 bomb got them to the WCF, not Paul George. If it weren’t for Kawhi PG would never have gotten out of round 1 in the WC.
Wow pg love the podcast to tell your side of the story I knew alittle inside but now this makes so much sense happy you betted on yourself I’m a clippers fan but ima root for you in Philly bro.
Playoff P remembers what Steve Ballmer did to Blake Griffin. Thats why he wanted the "no trade" clause and once the Clippers said nope. He knew it was better to go somewhere else.
“I won’t take anyone’s word” but yet every team he goes to he says the same line only to leave 😂
If these teams aren't putting it in ink why should he stay?
@@kaydee1485I wonder what will happen when he doesn’t win anything in Philly either lol
bro they literally offered you the exact same deal as kawhi
was too late ... he dersved more imo at this point with Kwahi showing his worth being injured... again
Kawhi is a more decorated player. PG has no accolades to hang his hat on. That type shit matters in contract negotiations
@jamesc6876 for doing what? Wtf has this guy done in his entire career?
Only the Elite should have a No-Trade clause, PG isn’t one of those players, I agree with him on the money end tho. Team can’t limit its options with a no trade if something good comes up, he should’ve just let that go and played his ass off.
he's not worth that contract, dude is 34 and will be 38 once his contract is done.
Dude he is worth it we don’t need him to be super man we just need him to play with embiid and maxy that’s it they paid Harris see what he did 😂 pg wayyyyyyyyyy better then Harris if it clicks it’s gonna be a problem
@@tyreecegrange9522too bad either the C’s and knicks gonna clap the sixers every playoffs. i honestly feel really bad for sixers fans when reality hits them in the face😕

You sound stupid
Respect Kobe Bryant one mamba
The fact that everyone is "two years/60 mil is crazy" is ... wow... where are we these days?
I just refused a job paying 60 thousand and I felt like an asshole. This dude talking refusing 60 MILLION?
You’re forgetting that taxes will take at least half of that depending what state your in and the income of that state and you still have to pay your agent. He still will get millions but pg is an all star player. Can’t blame him for wanting more.
Taxes depending on where you live, still a lot of money but taxes do cut into it
That's why he was blowing my parlay last season I'ma need that P
take you and your podcast to Philly and by the way kawhi has rings
DAMN. As a Clippers follower. PG is not on Kawaii level. That was the downfall. 80 percent of the fans wear #2 jerseys. DAMN
Kawaii is not as available so its balanced out.
and Kawhi was injured for 80% of the games he's been on the Clippers
Not saying your wrong but Paul George is the most important player on the team 74 games played career high from 3pt and fg kawhi is the great unavailable superstar this league has ever seen but key word is unavailable
I see what you saying but he's been available more than kawi and he's really good
@@marquiljones7462 Yeah but the fans love Kawhi. Hate to see him leave. Wish that he knew the situation
Bro, you said that on INDY 😂
PG🔥🔥🔥
Well Well Well 😂😂😂
The greatest part of these podcasts definitely has to be the transparency! Always honest and doesn’t sugar coat anything 😎
Get your money man, but…
1. You’re not better than Kawhi, nor deserve the same money. Availability has nothing to do with it because more people pay to see Kawhi.
2. You slumped for big periods during the season, I watched every clip game and could clearly see you weren’t engaged. Understandably, but you guy’s should’ve seeded higher and it’s obvious now why you didn’t.
3. Your streaky play this year proved your a third option, if Philly wants to pay you that money to be a 3rd option so be it, I don’t think other teams including the clips think a 3rd option is worth that much. Start of the year you said you were number 2, now you want the same money as 1, and you settled to be 3…. You’ve always been inconsistent with your weird ass statements.
Kawhi never plays when it matters. Can't pay to see a player who isn't out there.
a championship era is needed to make this worthwhile and to elevate PG status as a injury prone unreliable player.
They were so disrespectful that they paid him $150,000,000 even though he didn’t do 💩 while he was there.
Yup…George sees himself like a LeBron WHICH he is not tier 1, tier 2…BUT in my eyes a tier 3 star -So glad Knicks did NOT sign part time player George!
What did Kawhi do for the clippers?
@@skeet88respectfully PG is not Kahwi. Kahwi's resume speaks for itself
@@skeet88 Kawhi is a two time champion and has two finals MVPs and lead a team to a ring, so he’s proven what he can do. When he’s healthy, he can lead a team to a ring.
WTF has Paul George done?
He took the clippers to the WCF before harden and with kawhi out...clippers in the wcf was HISTORY...and he did it alone
Isn't 3 years 150 and no trade clause kind of an insane demand?
Considering he made 4yr 170 on the clippers asking for a ntc and higher yearly salary at 34 is ridiculous 🤣
Yes and that’s why he’s saying it with his yes men and fan base here and not to a reporter.
Not really no
@@Cashmoneez He's asking for MORE than Kawaii got at age 34. Even Kawaii doesn't have a no trade clause.

I'll probably never see 30 mil in my life and he felt disrespected to get that in a year 🤦🏾♂️
well bro you need to put it in relations… lets say you are one of the top 2 workers and your boss makes 5 million in profit a year and you only get payed 50.000 🤷🏼♂️ you would feel disrespected too. You are the reason customers come to pay
@chalku5606 no fk what u talking about that's 30 million dollars in a year.
@@Kingta17 okay i try again for you... PG13 sells jerseys, people come to watch him play people follow his podcast or whatever. He has a certain worth. If he takes less then who gets all the money. Multi Billionair Steve Balmer. They move into a new arena. PG is selling tickets he is still a star player. Just to put to you in perspective 30 Mill Dollar Players: Chris Paul, Jeremy Grant, Jordan Poole, Porzingingis, Herro, Hartenstein,... Damn PG13s Name is worth more than theirs,... the money he creates for the clippsers they need to pay him. He is still an all-star.
So lets imagine you are a club promoter. Club is always crazy full and bouncing. So you boss makes a million a night and he pays you 500 $ but you are the one bringing half of the people.
He feel disrespected and wanted more and guess what he got ?
Prob won't even play the year
Imagine thinking you’re going to get paid the same as Kawhi where Kawhi is a top 10 player and you’re a middling all-star at best
