with the roster, the hype, the injuries, the blow outs, the soft schedule….it’s been disappointing but I don’t know about worst in franchise history.
It’s up there though.

Especially when bringing up stuff like “5 future HOF’ers” like they’re all still in their prime or something.

I don’t want us to make a trade for any of the Pacers players if it means more tax money spent.

If they can somehow get Torrey Craig or JUSTIN HOLIDAY with Myles Turner, then sure. Do it.
Still think T. Ross/Mo Bamba is the best wing/big trade out there. Harder to do as time goes on since Bamba is showing he's a legit starting 5 this year with real upside.

I thought with relatively good health that this team would be a 4-5 seed in the reason for a few reasons….
- Year 19 LBJ isn’t going to go hard for 82 games. Dude is the master of in-game and in-season load management.
- I believe this offseason was shortened as well so continuity matters. GS, Phx and Utah has a lot of the same core and it shows.
- Westbrook typical early season adjustment period

Don’t think a trade with the Pacers are happening. Just no assets better than what other teams that would be interested can offer.

Wait, y’all want more AD at the 5 but also want to trade for a starting caliber NBA center?

We have nearly no flexibility in trades. I’d rather have tht then whoever we can get for him alone

Turner or Sabonis is the play here. Preferably I'd get Sabonis because he can do more things but Turner's ability to protect the rim and be a threat from deep is much needed and would aid AD and Dwight big time.
A package of THT, Nunn, an expiring contract or DJ should be enough to get the deal done.
Imo Rob would easily make this move if IND wants to wheel and deal

I'm the ONLY one here who dont want AD at the 5.
Turner is a perfect fit at starting center, slide AD's jumpshooting *** to the 4.
Or Sabonis at the 5, AD at the 4 would work just as nicely.

“Should be enough”
meanwhile other teams will offer multiple draft picks

Turner is a free agent the same year Bron and Russ are off the books. That's probably more realistic

I actually think THT is a perfect player for Indiana. He’s from Chicago which is close. He’s young af.
The main reason is everyone thought all the lakers young players weren’t good, but really they were just in the wrong situation (young and in la lol)
however, the notion that we have enough to trade for Sabonis is insane. We Might Get Turner if Indy throws us a deal…. Sabonis is way too expensive.

I'm against spending $17.5M on a center.

Don't know what's worse, this or Bill McDonald screaming L B J everytime Bron does something.
