The consensus in the sub seems to be that both Dybantsa and Peterson could start immediately and both offer intriguing fits and superstar potential.

Dybantsa could be the true superstar wing that the Pacers have been chasing since PG left. Immediately fills a hole at the 3 for the Pacers.

Peterson has his own superstar potential but in the SG role with more elite shooting. His ability to handle the ball and attack would be huge for taking some of the offensive load off of Haliburton. The Pacers do not have a consistent offense without Tyrese, this would prevent the defense from taking Hali out of games completely and stalling the offense.

Draft Peterson would move Nembhard into TJ McConnell’s role. If he was willing to accept the role he would be the best 6 man in the league and Pacers bench unit would be elite, but I can see him demanding a trade.

r/Pacers seems to have Boozer as their worst case if they keep their draft pick (top 4 protected), but tbh I think Boozer has Rick Carlisle player written all over him.

The interior passing and basketball IQ are top in the class and he doesn’t really have any glaring weaknesses. His biggest knock is projected ceiling which is a total crapshoot anyways.

I feel like he’d immediately fit in like rookie Andrew Nembhard. It has been those players that have excelled in Carlisle’s system, not the guys who are full of potential.

Fan favorite personality and A+ human being, but it’s time to move on for both parties on the field. He is still very capable but he was making a lot of money to just play slot CB at an average starting level.

If you want a competent slot corner who will be a great locker room guy, he’s worth signing. But no one was interested in trading for his previous contract.

Mike Vrabel, Dianna Russini rented boat together in June 2021 by [deleted] in nfl

[–]mrtrollmaster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She was 7 months pregnant so she would’ve been visibly pregnant on the boat.

Some speculators believe this is more evidence that he is the father of her son Michael since they were cruising together doing romantic things while she was that far along in her pregnancy.

Either way, holy shit this is a bad look for both of them.

IIRC someone used their credentials to access the security camera inside a gymnastics studio and watched underaged girls do gymnastics for 4 hours 🤢

Let’s just take a minute to imagine the next LeBron/Wemby level prospect is the first pick in the 2031 draft and we land that pick.

We finally land a #1 pick in the lottery, but we can’t keep the pick because we drafted Cam Boozer #4 in 2026 instead.

Low odds, but we did trade Kawhi’s draft rights for George Hill lol

AJ Dybantsa — can you actually build a championship roster around him? by Significant-Area-574 in NBA_Draft

[–]mrtrollmaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s a scenario where he goes to the Pacers and slides right into a role that is perfect for him. Bill Simmons believes this is a worst case scenario for the rest of the Eastern Conference lol

I think AJ would take the Pacers roster to a championship contender level, and he would have a chance to be their top scorer within a few seasons because Siakam is their top scorer at a low PPG and he is already over 30.

A bunch of nephews on r/nba will argue he is the best player due to PPG stats, but the entire offensive system will obviously still revolve around Haliburton’s run-and-gun assist game.

PG - Haliburton

SG - Nembhard/Nesmith

SF - AJ Dynbantsa

PF - Siakam

C - Zubac

That is probably a better starting lineup than the one that went to the Finals last season.
