This trade makes me hard like bull
Thoughts on the deal?
Not exciting but it sets us up for POSSIBLY an exciting off season. Pacers aren’t known for big moves but I bet we can make some
Another 3-4 that cant defend and shoots 3s. Carlisle will love him. Pacers' defense will still be horrid.
Buddy still being on the team is bad news for Mathurin. Theis still being on the roster is horrible news for Jackson.
Why drop Terry Taylor and keep James Johnson? TT is young, a great rebounder, and a decent inside presence. There's no way he makes more $ than JJ.
At least they got a true forward. Not much, but balances the roster a bit. Tax moves by other teams.
Can Jordan defend?…
It would be crazy to have a player get paid on two seperate contracts.
Seems good to me. Basically had to take those contracts to get Nwora. I'm personally glad we starting moving forward without TT and Goga. They were never fighting for starting spots and weren't even in rotation for good reason. Johnson's leadership is a loss but he wasn't in rotation either. These moves just give the impression that they will be aggressive for the draft.
Why get a 6'8" wing that can't really do anything good especially when he's cheeks on D? Terry Taylor was wayyyy more versatile & can rebound & play defense better than this bum. This is the definition of making a move just to make a move
I think the pacers coaching staff are planning on making nwora a defender. He’s terrible on d now, but from what I’ve heard/seen he doesn’t rlly try on defense.
If the coaching staff are upfront with him and tell him that if he focusses on becoming a good wing defender he’ll get on the court, he will try harder and also work hard to become a defensive unit. That is, if he’s smart enough to do that…
I liked Jordan Nwora, I mentioned him once before long ago.. But I'm pissed at the fact how a team like the Lakers can give nothing and get everything. We couldn't get Rui, or Vanderbilt??? Who they cuttin??
🤦
Is it me or the pacers were intending tank for wemba at the start of the season until silver came out and said he'd watching tanking teams? Pacers knew after that failed ayton signing the season was washed and were looking up to the draft with 3 first rounders. Pacers better hit on this draft or some changes are needed in front office. We continue to pick up our old coaches and players too!I'm over colts and pacers washing seasons for draft picks. Smh. Sucks being a small market team fan
