It's true that Paul George hasn't been able to lead the team to success in the playoffs so far, but that's largely because the team does face serious injuries, especially those of Kawhi Leonard.

So with the team still unable to succeed this season, the Clippers are also fully capable of trying to put George on the shelves this offseason. Us media James Pearsey listed 3 blockbuster plans about Paul George:

Scenario 1:

The Clippers got: Donovan Mitchell, Mike Conley

Jazz gets: Paul George, 2027 first-round pick (from the Clippers), 2029 first-round pick (from the Clippers)

Scenario two:

Clippers get: Jamal Murray, Michael Porter Jr., 2024 first-round picks (from the Nuggets), 2026 first-round picks (from the Nuggets)

The above three transactions are indeed very heavy transactions, but this also means that it will be difficult for the Clippers to promote such a deal. The first is to persuade the Jazz to send young Mitchell for George, which seems unlikely, because even if the Jazz were to break up the lineup, they would put Gobert on the shelves instead of young Mitchell.

As for option two, the Nuggets who get George may indeed rely on the rosters of George and Jokic to move forward, but in contrast, Murray and Porter will give the Nuggets a better future, not to mention that the deal also requires the Nuggets to sacrifice two future draft picks, such a deal will not do much benefit to the Nuggets.

Finally, the Nets sent Simmons and Harris and two future draft picks to get George, considering that the Nets already have Kevin Durant in the lineup, and it seems a bit redundant to get a top wing like George, compared to Ben Simmons' organization and defense may be more in line with Durant and Irving's presence.

Overall, even though the above are very heavy transactions, from the author's point of view, these transactions are not very meaningful.
