It's almost like PG was traded when he was 29 compared to 33, George quietly made his request rather than a contentious public one, and the Clippers being able to sign Kawhi was contingent on them being able to trade for George so they were willing to give up everything.
Situations aren't comparable at all.
And SGA was far from a sure thing at the time. But I do understand the frustration when the two main players we got back in the Dame trade are both older and currently injured. The Blazers might have made the best of a bad situation but it was still a poor trade, compounded by this idea we would be able to raise their value during the season, which totally backfired.
