ATX_sig Posted February 8, 2022 Report Share Posted February 8, 2022 4 minutes ago, DC2345 said: The Pacers are clearly rebuilding or reshaping the roster around younger players. Warren doesn't fit that mold and is on an expiring contract. They are likely shopping him to see if they can get a team to take his contract so that they can have his bird rights in FA this summer in return for a pick or a younger player. Seems that they weren't all in on younger players as they had interest in McCollum but that ship has now sailed. From a Mavs perspctive, they could use him if he could get on the court this year to replace Hardaway's scoring. I wouldn't give a first because he could walk for nothing plus they can't trade their 1st until 2025.. A couple of seconds maybe. If the Pacers are moving on from Sabonis and Turner, Powell would match his salary and is a good bench player and vet to mix in with young guys for a year. RC has a lot of history with Powell.

SpiderMonkey Posted February 8, 2022 Report Share Posted February 8, 2022 Wow, I love that the Pacers picked up Haliburton. He can be a star in this league. Super efficient, great shooter, one of the league leaders in assists. He will be able to run a fun up tempo offense. Hate seeing Domas go, but it's time to rebuild and you can do that with Haliburton, Duarte, lottery pick, etc.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miles Turner should just be cut if you can't deal him for a water cooler or a new mop for the court. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosier51 Posted February 8, 2022 Report Share Posted February 8, 2022 (edited) Man this is a really good trade for the Pacers. Possible star in Haliburton and Hield is third in the league on 3's this season. They also create a $6 million trade exception with the deal. I see more moves coming. Thing that makes me the happiest, probably eliminates them from going after Simmons. Edited February 8, 2022 by Hoosier51 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATX_sig Posted February 8, 2022 Report Share Posted February 8, 2022 Being big Mavs fan, RC loves Halliburton. They tried to real hard to move up and draft him the year he was in the draft. I think it hard for RC to let Sabonis go but Sabonis just didn't seem all that happy. RC really likes to run the Pick and Roll. I disagree that Sabonis doesn't fit what RC wants to do. Before Powell on the Mavs tore his achilles he was thriving in the PnR with Luka. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpiderMonkey Posted February 8, 2022 Report Share Posted February 8, 2022 This team could be one of the most deadly 3 point shooting teams in the league with Haliburton Hield and Duarte. I'm excited about this move. Move Turner in the next 48 hours and then Brogdon in the off season and you have the opportunity for a really exciting team. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier51 Posted February 8, 2022 Report Share Posted February 8, 2022 Haliburtons last 24 games 17.3 PPG 9.4 APG 2.6 TOV 47/43/87% . 👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwtaylor1055 Posted February 8, 2022 Report Share Posted February 8, 2022 Pacers win this trade. The injury to Myles led to Sabonis being dealt first. Haliburton is and will be big time star, higher ceiling than Sabonis. Myles voiced his pleasure of playing with Haliburton. Don't think Myles is moved now. I could see Hield being moved(lots of suiters were after him) before thursday or during offseason. I expect Brogdon to be dealt in off-season. Haliburton and Duarte are your PG and SG for the foreseeable future. So far this has been a quick but very successful start to a rebuild. Pacers could trade up to a top 3 pick if they start winning and enter close to the 9-13 range with their own 1st rd pick plus the cavs 1st rd pick at the end of this season. This offseason will be one to watch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kings got rid of their two best three-point shooters, something that Domas needs to be surrounded with. 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
