Tyrese Maxey and Paul George spoke to the media after signing new contracts with the Philadelphia 76ers.
It was fitting that the pressers were held in that order -- Maxey first, followed by George -- because all of the excitement around the 76ers' offseason was possible only because of the sacrifice Maxey made last summer: agreeing to be patient and to allow 76ers president of basketball operations Daryl Morey to use Maxey's small salary cap hold this summer to chase a star in free agency.
"But when they brought it to me, I understood. ... You don't have that many opportunities as a franchise to do something like that. But after the Clippers didn't offer George a full max contract this summer, it paved the way for Philadelphia to do so. What's in front of him, and the Sixers, is a trio that compares favorably with any in the NBA today. The combination of Maxey -- a breakout star, and the league's reigning Most Improved Player -- as its lead guard, George on the wing, and former MVPas free agents, has allowed the 76ers to put a credible supporting cast around their starry trio.
