Turner's been pretty bad, IMO, but Lavoy Allen is an upgrade over Mahinmi or Scola.

To be fair... you think Hansbrough is better than Scola.

Also, Allen is not an upgrade over Scola.

Do you actually watch the players you talk about? I have to ask... it's like you see 2 games of someone and then use stats to determine who is better. Hansbrough is garbage and Scola hits basically every 15 footer he throws up if he has space. Not to mention, Scola is a hustle player around the basket. Hansbrough was a hustle player too... he just had 0 offense other than awkwardly throwing his body around to get to the line.

And you don't think Evan Turner has been good? Because, ya know... "broken down knees" Granger has been awesome. I love Granger but come on.... he was leaving at the end of the season anyways. Turner is currently better and more healthy than Granger is. Allen is an extra big body. Both Turner/Allen come off the books and the Pacers can still re-sign Stephenson.

This was an amazing trade for the Pacers.

TOP, what do you think Turner does well? 28% from 3 and so many turnovers. Not a very good defender. What makes you excited about him?

It is really weird. It looked like a terrible trade for Boston. Hasn't been a good trade for either team.

Yep, dump a high volume shooter and get a physical inside presence, seemed like a no brainer.

Obviously I'd rather have Harden, but that trade was better than the Perk trade by far.

Lamb is solid and improving, Adams has a lot of potential and they got cap space. Harden wasn't going to get Harden numbers in OKC.

They may have gave away a championship with that trade. Lamb is okay and Adams is going to be solid, I'd rather have made a run at the ring then have either of them though.

They're still going to make a run at the ring, plus they added a much needed big, and have cap space to pursue another quality bench player.
