2017-2018 Indiana Pacers and Everything NBA Thread

[IndyScribe]

Ingram would be fine, but I'd rather get a pick. I guess Lakers could give him up and still get Ball, although I heard they want to keep him. So what # is George going to be in LA? 13 is retired for Chamberlain and I doubt the Lakers let him use Kobe's number.

It makes sense though. If that pick is going to my team, I want the player I want

Agreed but I like the way the other leagues handle this and allow draft day trades of picks

I hope they pull a rabbit out of their hat, lol.  Ingram has a lot of potential he's a young fella.  It would be good to have a player like him and Turner lined up for years. 

I would love Ingram as he has PG type potential and I am hoping a player like Jordan Bell is there at 27 or 28 if we get one of those picks - his shot blocking ability is a game changer, pair him up with Turner on the inside. Let Lance run the team  That could be our young BIG4 lol. I would Draft Mitchell at 18 = a BIG5!

Fox's 3point % doesn't really bother me, I can see how it would some though, because the league has become a 3 point league. I just love his Leadership, his John Wall type quickness, and his Defense. He doesn't have a good jumper but he is a great finisher at the basket so he can still score in bundles. John Wall didn't have much of a jumper either coming out and he improved that a lot. I can see Fox within 2 seasons being in the mid 30%'s from 3 because of his work ethic.

I agree.  This draft does have 4 really good point guards in it.  Fultz Ball Fox and Smith Jr.  I really think Ball will be the best, all though not a lot of people want to see that.

I'm getting this feeling that the Pacers won't do anything with PG tonight. I really hope I am wrong.

Lakers probably wouldn't be that good this year even with PG.  Think they may offer up their 1st pick in 2018??  It would probably be mid at the highest.

[Colts_Fan12]

I'm hoping we may get the suns number 4 pick in a deal with the spurs 

 

Spurs get PG Suns get LA and we get #4 and maybe a player

Their 2018 pick belongs to Boston or the 76ers.

I think they get something done, probably close or during the draft.

We would get #4 and Bledsoe. We may have to give up #18, which I'm fine with.

If we can't trade him, I hope he get stuck on the bench for the entire season.

I thought the 76ers already get the Lakers first rounder next year?  I could be wrong though?

I thought it was the Celtics? Either way, some team owns that pick.

That won't happen lol.  They won't pay him that salary to sit on the bench.  They are going to trade him to whoever gives him the best offer.

It's both. If the pick is 2-5, Celtics get it. If it's anything else, then the Sixers get it, and Celtics get something else.

Won't happen. It's petty and would hurt the franchise.

Play him at the 4 the entire year lol

Rumor that the Suns looking to package #4 and Eric Bledsoe in a major splash. Please lord

If that Timberwolves offer of Dunn, Lavine, and picks is true, take the offer and run.

Best thing about the trade (besides getting rid of PG) means we probably won't have to re sign Teague. Dunn was #1 rated PG in the draft last year. I'm a bit shocked the Wolves would just give him up. 

[RockThatBlue]

Lavar Ball has to be the most annoying dad on planet earth. My god, man.

If this does indeed happen, I don't get it from the Timberwolves perspective. But Pacers would have Kris Dunn, Zach LaVine and maybe the pick would be the #7 pick in tonight's draft. And then draft Malik Monk. That would be too good to be true lol

I saw a mock a few hours ago having Monk falling to 13. If hes there Pacers gotta trade up.

I want Malik Monk so bad. That's the dude I want the most. If it's possible, KP has to be all over him

Draft time. Now the fun begins.
