(A long-term contract) is going to get done,” George told The Indianapolis Star. “There will be a deal signed and sealed on the table before the season. We’re (George and Pacers management) on the same page.”

 
 

“Of course it would be tough (to say no to Kobe),” George told ESPN Radio. “You’re talking about playing (at) home.”
 
The comments generated a mild firestorm but may have been much adieu about nothing.
“No,” George said when asked if there was any chance he would leave the Pacers. “Honestly, I love it here. I want to be here. It’s a great place. There are no distractions. I can stay focused. It’s all about basketball here. I can stay focused and do my job.”

I hope they give him a max deal.

I hope they sign him to something reasonable so they don't cripple themselves.

and for that reason i hope he gets the biggest max he can get.

While I can see why you'd want that, being a Pistons fan, I admit that I'd rather a team that can continue to challenge Miami doesn't cripple itself for the future.

He's going to get a max offer from some else if the Pacers don't give him one. So it's give him the max and hope he continues his development arc or watch him walk
