    Levert is garbage. Are there people arguing he’s good because an idiot gave up a pick for him?

    Do not believe that for a second.

    Cavs had MUCH better guards than LeVert AND also had Jarrett Allen and STILL were at bottom of East.

    All you guys who said Mobley went to perfect more talented team are trying to have your cake and eat it too.

    If LeVert is garbage then find a term for player 3 levels below that for Dipo.

    Dipo is also garbage. If some idiot trades a pick for him that doesn’t make him good, it just means you underestimated the idiot.

    I’m hearing from reliable sources that Augustine is getting bought out and so is Wall if the Westbrick trade falls through. Wood staying. Not hearing any chatter on Gordon.

    Well our idiot GM should have found a better taker for him then.

    Stone traded Caris + SRP for Dipo.

    Then sold Dipo to Heat for Olynyk + SRP.

    Pacers GM found a buyer for LeVert who paid FRP + 2 SRP.

    Stone is a huge idiot any way you slice it.

    Sure, but it’s so hard to predict stupidity.

    Cavs were not only teams interested in LeVert.

    There was actually a market for him.

    Unlike Oladipo.

    He was negative value to me, not even a question. If a team gives up 3 picks for Westbrook it would be hard for me to credit the lakers gm for being a visionary because some other team was stupid

    How many Pacers games did you actually watch though? Hard to predict value off boxscores. Somehow I doubt that you're a massive Kiefer Sykes and Duane Washington Jr head.

    Looks like nothing's gonna happen but a crappy salary dump and low 2nd for Gordon. That's my hunch.

    His offensive metrics are poor, and those are pretty reliable. Now if he’s a great defender then I would definitely change my stance

    Considering what we have done that gave up Allen/LeVert and got Oladipo here, then signed Theis and Nwaba... We better lower the expectations about Stone’s trade or signing.

    If you're sharing the court with Kiefer Sykes, Duane Washington Jr, Terry Taylor, Oshae Brisette, Goga Bidatze, the worst Holiday Brother, and the ghost of Lance Stephenson then you tend to have to take what you get on offense. The Pacers easily have the most rando rotation in the league.
