We give up Hayward and PJ and receive Turner and Levert. The money almost matches up perfectly. We could throw in a first if we have to, but this would fix our problem down low and give us a really exciting year.

PJ and a first or Rozier and a first is all I'd be willing to trade. The Pacers can have Plumlee just as a freebie. 

No way in hell I'm giving them Terry and a first.

If we're talking Terry and a first Sabonis better be involved in that conversation.

I’ll say it also hurts not having our first round pick to use… unless everyone will be okay with offering Kai.

You’d have think that the Pacers would want Washington and some combination of draft picks. Since we don’t have draft picks they’d be looking at Bouknight (untouchable) and Jones.

Would the Hornets be willing to part with Washington, Jones, and Plumlee (salary filler) for Turner and a 2nd round pick?

PG - Ball, Smith

SG - Rozier, Martin, Bouknight

SF - Hayward, Oubre, Lewis

PF - Bridges, McDaniels, Thor, Kubolka

C - Turner, Richards, Carey

That’s quite a bit to give up… but a solid looking roster.

A rebuilding team is not taking Hayward’s contract.

You can’t rebuild when the guy you are trading for has more years on his contract than the guys you are trading out.

Good lord some of you are severely overvaluing Myles Turner. The guy plays 30+ minutes a game and can't even average a double double and he's 7 feet tall. He has like 10+ games this season where he didn't even grab 5 rebounds and that is currently one of our biggest weaknesses. He's also terrible on the offensive glass.

It’s not how we evaluate him, it how the Pacers value him. He’s been in the block for forever and never gotten moved. That should tell you all you need to know… it wouldn’t be cheap.

Anyone thinking otherwise is delusional.

No chance I trade a player of Gordon’s caliber for Myles Turner. Even with his bloated contract. He is too important to this young team currently. 
 

If we are talking Sabonis, that’s a completely different conversation.

Myles Turner is basically PJ if he was 4 to 5 inches taller. PJ is sacrificing stats to help the team currently. He’s clearly not a five and isn’t as good as Bridges who’s taken control of the starting 4 spot. 
 

PJ fits really well next to Sabonis on the Pacers and Turner is a much better fit at the 5 for the Hornets.

PJ + Plumlee/Mcdaniels and a first is about all I’d be willing to give up for Turner and that’s just because decent 7footers are way more valuable than 3 and D stretch 4s currently.

Ideally I would have loved to get a guy like Jarrett Allen but unfortunately we couldn’t get involved last year to help facilitate the Harden trade.

I respect your opinion but I would trade Hayward straight up for Turner in a second.  Turner is right on the cusp of greatness and this dude is one of the best defensive centers in the league.  He would fit us perfectly.  I do like Hayward but Turner makes this team really tough

With Turner you hope the offense keeps developing but he is a great defender.  Would love to get him here and I would even give up Bouknight which really don’t want to do

Yeah and I hope we are not willing to overpay just because the Pacers think he is worth more than he actually is. He's been on the block forever because other teams aren't dumb enough to give up what the Pacers want. It's a two way road.

His actual value is pretty much a Player of PJ's caliber, who is trending to be about on par with Turner's current skill level and a pick since Turner is a 7footer.

Pacers on the other hand are acting like the guys is a 5 time All-Star.

Hey I agree, PJ straight up is all I’d offer.

Unfortunately the Pacers are creating a bidding war and someone will do something stupid.

I also respect yours but the guy isn't anywhere close to being one of the best defensive centers in the league. He is a great shot blocker but he gets taken to school more times than not against skilled centers. He just got worked the other night by Daniel Gafford ffs.

Also there's a reason his rebounding numbers suck.

Well giving them Terry is another matter.  Dude could be an all star soon.  Agree Terry included is a big stretch

You don’t value Myles as much…thats fine.  My last trade didn’t include Hayward since I don’t see the Pacers wanting him.  Better yet.  We win now and they rebuild.  I was never a huge Bouknight fan tbh

BTW…Sabonis coming here would be retarded.  I never even considered that as a possible option.  That guy is a fuggin amazing scorer

      I just mean it’s always offsetting in that situation.  I didn’t realize they called another penalty

      And as I asked this again before, what goes into PFF's man open %, as I know you've brought that stat up before. Is that just the number of routes he gets open at any point during the route, or is it calculated on targets and if he was open when the ball got to him. Because like I pointed out so many times in the lead up to the draft, a big reason it was harder for him to get separation against man was because he not only had his man on him, but he was double or triple teamed on the majority of his routes this past year.  Just because of that alone, it was easier for him to get open against zone coverage where he could find holes and sit in them. Also, again, as been discussed so many times, his QB's play this year was awful, and lots of times his contested catches were due to him not delivering the ball on time when T-Mac got open.  Or just times he got open but wasn't targeted for whatever reason. So just using that stat as a way to say he struggles to get open against man is more likely than not, disingenuous. Hell, it's a PFF stat that you're using against him, yet at the same time, PFF absolutely loves him, he was their 4th overall player.   I posted this clip on here a week or so ago of the T-Mac vs Hunter game in 2023, where the anti T-Mac guys like to say Hunter shut him down.  But numerous times in this video you see T-Mac create tons of separation from Hunter but the ball wasn't thrown his way, plus a clear PI that wasn't called (and the one that was). https://x.com/4MR_Fetti/status/1918262063660454227 The "he can't separate" narrative is way overblown and become something more myth than reality.  No, he's not an elite separator like some of the quick twitch WRs, but he's so much better than the haters here like to say.
