    Unpopular hot take: long term, Brown is the odd man out, not Buddy

    Look I LOVE Brown’s signing

    But some of us must have realized this by now, he and Mathurin don’t function well together

    Mathurin’s been moved to the bench for now, but we know that’s temporary. For this team to take the next step, we need Mathurin to continue to grow and regain his starting spot

    When that happens, Brown becomes a very expensive backup. He’d still be a great bench piece to have, just expensive

    Buddy otoh has great rapport with the team, and is great for team culture and chemistry. Not to mention he’s Tyrese’s best friend on the team. Buddy is the perfect type of bench vet for us

    Resigning Brown and letting Buddy walk would be a mistake










  • Well if we’re talking about pie in the sky trades, then:

    (5). LeBron

    He’s old, but he’d still make us an instant contender

    (4). A committed Zion

    On paper a Turner-Zion-Haliburton trio is a perfect fit. As long as Zion is committed that is. How’s the burger and donut scene in Indianapolis?

    (3). Edwards

    The type of A1 scorer every team needs. Same draft class as Tyrese. Nuff said

    (2). Jokic

    The only twin tower pairing with Turner that might actually work. Pacers offense is already humming with Haliburton, imagine throwing Jokic into the mix

    (1). Giannis

    Giannis at the 4 basically makes this team complete
