Absolutely.

Everyone would. Pacers are NOT doing that. Sabonis is ridiculously good and only 22 years old. Pacers wouldn't do EG + #10 for Sabonis.

Honestly, I don't think there's any combination of assets outside of something involving Harden that would get you Sabonis. Or Turner. It MIGHT be different if the Pacers had some crazy contracts to get off of, but they don't. They're "worst" contract at this point is Dougie Buckets, and he's only got one more year at $7.3 million.

I actually think they can, and would be beneficial to them to throw a max contract at Kemba. Then resign Bogdanovic. Their starting five could be:
Kemba, Oladipo, Bogdanovic, Sabonis, Turner

I'm not sure people realize how "good" Bogdanovic was after Oladipo went down. In 23 post all star break games, he put up 20.9 ppg / 4.4 rpg / 2.5 apg with 42.2% three point shooting on 5 attempts a game.

You might not think it, but the above starting 5, if healthy, can compete with any team in the East... imo... with the right coaching, chemistry and role player add-ons.

Agree on all points especially on Bogdanovic. That guy is a killer.
