We can’t beat that. Oh well.
Huge overpay, GL to them
pacers are crazy if they are trading 3 picks for siakam.
It’s a gamble and I’m glad it is not one we are taking.
Love the talent, hate the price. Players might be buddy +obi toppen +filler to make $$ work
Siakam and Haliburton under Rick in the playoffs sounds very dangerous.
But three picks for a possible rental?
I wanted him but not for 3 firsts goddamn. If they give up Jarace too then imma laugh hard
Wow I would be sick to my stomach if I was a Pacers fan. Horrendous overpay, but I’m glad the Mavs can’t beat that. Not worth that price at all
Idiotic
le sigh
Pacers arent going anywhere this year with Haliburton hurt. Dumb move for them.
Good for them, huge overpay.
I’d rather have Lauri Cannon
i was actually hoping Raps don’t trade Siakam. then Nico convince him in the offseason, we make a S&T with Raps for 2 1sts
It probably just means theyre not trading any of their young players
Please Nico…pick up Jalen Smith in the aftermath.
It was never realistic unless he himself said he wants to go to dallas and only dallas.
Not sure wtf pacers are doing tho, that’s kind of their all in move and im sorry but not one is scared of haliburton and siakam duo, it doesn’t make them contenders, not to mention he doesn’t fit their timeline and they risk with him walking for free this summer.
And for that reason…I’m out.
Good for Carlisle, dude has a hell of a squad.
1. Glad he’s going east vs. Having him come to warriors/kings etc
2. We were never in the 3-1st rd picks race.
3. Always thought we should make a minor move plus buyout market this season and shoot your shot after the Knicks pick conveys.
Wait yall really think the mavs have a chance on this one?
Bruce Brown Hield and 3 1sts is the rumour. Thats a big haul. The Pacers must be sure he’ll resign. Tbf Hali, Turner and Pascal is shit hot. Luka has never came close to having that level of talent around him here.
This gives us an idea of the trade market now. We’re better off holding what we have and trying to get a cheaper C who can spot Lively when injured.
It’s veen reported multiple times by different sources that Siakam will not resign with whatever team trades for him. He wants to test the free agency market. Unless he told the Pacers he’ll sign with them or it’s a sign & trade this is just a bad trade for Indiana.
Everyone be happy we ain’t the ones trading for him.
yeah, holy shit. we good over here fam
BREAKING UPDATE MAVERICKS LOSE AGAIN ON TRADE DEADLINE: MAVS FANS ARE INVESTIGATING
This is the type of move that pre-Nico we would have doubled the offer for and still gotten us nowhere
With no commitment? That’s pretty nuts if so
That’s fine with me , when fully healthy we have depth , no need to make a move unless it’s a buyout C Or cheap trade C target
They have their own pick and most likely the thunder or clippers pick (whichever is worse) for a bad 2024 draft class. It’s not really much of 2/3 picks are those two.
We fleeced the nets with Kyrie man. Can’t believe we got him for only one first. That trade and Lively put us back in the right direction.
For three firsts they can have him.
Good. Really don’t want us throwing little assets that we have for someone who is a rental.
Lol Rick got the two guys Mavs wanted..Tyrese and Siakam.
Tbh, it’s probably an ok price for the Pacers, because they can afford to pay Siakam whatever money he wants, and so they have a reason to be very confident of re-signing him.
