Do it and give him a PF who covers his weaknesses!!!

This is a tough one. On the one hand I do like him and replacing him would be difficult. On the other hand I really don’t want to be the team that gives him a 4/100+ or a 5/125+ deal

Y’all after how many times I’ve had to read “it’s not a matter of IF they trade Turner, more like a matter of when” from journalists that had no idea what they were talking about, I’m about done listening to any kind of NBA rumors from here on out

All for it. People act like he’s 30. He’s had some awesome games and displayed skills most 5’s can’t match.
We have wide open cap space and already have an abundance of picks for this draft (3 1sts). Getting more 1sts this year doesn’t make much sense.

I have to shake my head at this article. Shams is just regurgitating old news. “The Lakers and Raptors are among the teams that have shown interest in [Myles] Turner in recent months.” Recent months is doing a lot of the heavy lifting. We already knew this from the summer. The Lakers aren’t interested anymore. Raptors were linked to him last year so that’s not a surprise at all. Shams really had to write an article for months-old news.
You don’t have to be a rocket scientist to figure out the FO is looking into extending Myles. That doesn’t mean they will, but KP is going to explore all his options before making a final decision.

Sign him. Our backcourt is set long term. Now start getting the frontcourt set. 16 points, 7 rebounds and a few blocks per game is good production.
