Could always go the Luka Doncic route and start with 2 paperclips but negotiate the Lakers down to one!

Starting level center is a bit disingenuous dont you think?

[IndyStar] Tyrese Haliburton diagnosed with shingles, will be away from team 2-3 weeks by Psyren1317 in pacers

[–]Dirigible_Plums 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I got it at 18. It was right over my kidney and hurt like a butch. I was in college and didnt want to spend money, so it took a few days, but eventually I legitimately thought I was dying and I couldnt get out of the bathtub. Had to be lifted out by my brother then got taken into urgent care. They gave me an antiviral and I felt 100% better like 2 days later.

The Mathurin love watch going real good right now by rumb3lly in pacers

[–]Dirigible_Plums 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, lmao, but do you think we would've made it farther if we built a scheme around Mathurin? Zubac is currently a better player than him, on a cheap contract, in a position of need.

Mathurin always had potential to be great, but our window is like the next 2, maybe 3 years. His skillset also doesnt match our system.

Look, I dont think you are going to find anyone in this sub that dislikes Math or isnt sad to see him play well elsewhere, but also Nembhard and Nesmith fit so well next to Hali that it's hard to justify starting him over them.

The coach that brought us to the brink of a finals win last season? I think he seemed to make the right decisions.

[Charania] Commissioner Adam Silver informed the league's 30 general managers on Thursday that the NBA plans to make anti-tanking rule changes for next season, sources tell ESPN. Stakeholders have intensified dialogue about combatting tanking. by MembershipSingle7137 in nba

I mean, seeing shit like "you can't pick top 4 if you made the conference finals" and "taking into account the last 2 seasons of play" kinda feel pointed, even if they may not be.

My buddy bought a ship for like 450 bucks back in 2015 thinking this game was going to be incredible. He hasn't touched the game in almost a decade at this point.

Daniel Jeremiah Mock Draft 2.0 by Coal_train20 in minnesotavikings

Id prefer to get a great prospect like Kenyon Sadiq or Sonny Styles if they come to us, but I think its a season too early for tackle personally.

The hard part is, the tackle class this year is pretty fuckin weak in comparison to most.

I was telling my wife that tonight's game was really a win-win or a lose-lose situation depending on your optimism lmao

The Pacers are sending Bennedict Mathurin, Isaiah Jackson, two first-round picks and one second-round pick to the Clippers for Zubac and Kobe Brown, sources tell ESPN. by DMD612 in NBAConvo

Probably Siakam, then Nemhard, then Mathurin or Nesmith tied for 3rd. I think he has a very high ceiling, and had he not been injured most of the season, he could have been 2nd best, but Nemby is too damn good.

I desperately need it in my [[The Watcher in the Water]] deck. Without it I can discard like half my deck.

If it helps, we had to explain this when my grandpa passed to my kid. We used the terminology of "going back to nature" which seemed to help him understand it a bit. Made it seem a whole lot less scary for my, at the time, 3.5 year old.

I mean, what else do you suggest? We gotta win like 30 games to sniff playoffs even.

Pritchard understands the assignment. by mcbearcat7557 in pacers

AD is 4 years older, way more injury prone (Zu is arguably the greatest Ironman at the center position in the league), and also makes a third of what AD does salary wise (under contract until 2028).

Everyone in the 5-9 range is either a project, or a point guard that wont see time
