I don't think signing a FA is going to make much of a difference. We need to secure a backup so we aren't scrambling for a staring and backup 5 in the offseason. Turner is playing himself right out the door come February. It's best if we get someone who can be out stater if it comes to that. I can't stress this enough.
Well this is all the pacers fault we've had 6 centers in the past few years…Oscar, Sabonis, Jalen, Goga, Thompson, and Theis. All to bet on Myles. I swear the fanbase here is trash. They're the reason that Myles is still here averaging 4 rebounds a game. We need a real center.
It's Time to LOOK AT Steve Kerr's Small Ball Play and take some aspects of THAT. WE HAVE THE TECHNOLOGY Lol
Dogs barking? Seriously?
Here we are again……only making moves because we have to. Being reactionary and not proactive. This is why we never really make it anywhere.
I would suggest if the pacers should look at moving Turner and Nemhard for S.Aldama, G.Jackson and Z.Edey.
Would that the financial issues they will face will solve this issue aswell.
No need to give up assets in desperation. We should lean into, double down on increasing pace. Get that pace pushed back up to where it was last season. We have youth for days that can get out and run and apply full court press. We still have Nembhard, TJ, Shep, and Nesmith at some point who are all dogged defenders.
We'll have to see Obi and Siakam at the 5, Walker will be spending time at 4 instead of 3 like we thought.

Play freeman at the 5 when needed. But still need a big center to battle the bigger bigs in the leauge. Small ball looks good when we play it but can't all the time.
Ouch – what a start to the year. Here’s my overreaction take. Beyond acquiring a center for back up in free agency. Maybe time to just focus back on development…? Tank a little and just stay in the hunt for play in spot for the cause and then can see what we need half way thru and trade a bit and get a draft pick. Do we have one?
