Sacramento should be relegated. What a dumpster fire.

Now I feel bad for Sabonis. There's probably more hope in Indiana than Sacramento even though both have a lot of work to do.

So Sacramento traded away the only two guys that can hit shots on their team and the Pacers no longer have any PF’s? Weird...
Quoting Nick from the now locked Ime thread:

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

Per Woj:

The Pacers are trading Domas Sabonis, Jeremy Lamb and Jeremy Lamb to Sacramento for Tyrese Hailburton, Buddy Hield and Tristan Thompson, sources tell ESPN.

Did they clone Jeremy Lamb? I mean, that technology alone would be worth at LEAST the whole team!

First Dolly and now this?! This petting zoo cloning has to stop.

Does this trade make either team better?

A lot of Cs fans are hurting right now, given their desires for Sabonis and Hali.

And why are people freaking out about SAC. They got the best player in the deal without giving up any picks (reportedly) and they get a couple of rotation-level players in Holiday and Lamb. That's not bad at all.

My thought - what are the Pacers doing? They traded LeVert for a guy they don't plan on re-signing and they now have like a million guards.

I feel like you want wing shooters and mobile shooting bigs around Fox. Not a throw back center who is skilled and can pass, but isnt the best on defense. Sabonis would fit better with Haliburton in my opinion. Seems like a strange pairing.

The fight for 10th is intense between New Orleans and SAC.

It'll be funny when Portland wins the spot anyway.

Pacers are asset collecting, although in the case of Halliburton, it's someone they hope to rebuild around.  Hield will fetch something later this week or over the summer that fits a long-term plan better.

Only crappy teams involved in the two big trades. Desperate to shake things up.

Come on Sacramento.  Davion Mitchell and Terrence Davis for Richardson.  You know you want to!

You could certainly argue that Sabonis isn't a PF and is better suited to play C. Curious to see him play next to a guy like Barnes.
