    Turner is a free agent, no need to trade for him.

    Just sign him this offseason.

    so good point, I like this TOR team, they are interesting.
    However this is not a contender currently.
    The Championship TOR had a classical formula: THAT GUY (Kawhi) + Co-THAT-GUY1 (Kyle) + Co-THAT-GUY2 (Gasol) + Up-And -Coming THAT GUY Siakam

    I have never asked for that. But the sooner you realize Sengun is one of the building blocks, the sooner you can start your coping.

    You're right. I think if we can inject on more piece from this upcoming draft class, plus a good FA this summer, I think we are there.

    Players you got to keep to let grow;

    Green, Jabari, Tari, KPJ, Tyty and Sengun. Right now I don't know where KJM head is but if he elects to stay, I would add him in.

    Even though I think Sengun's game is different from the rest, I think you need that player in your rotation to mix things up. Similar to what Gasol brought to Toronto's lineup.

    I like Myles Turner but I'm open to someone else with a similar game. I personally think he would be an excellent fit and if we can add a 6'9 - 6'10 3 and D wing opposite Jabari.....I really like our chances moving forward.

    I wanted to read some Pacers column to analyze the situation. After reading some, my understanding:
    -Pacers media is worse than Rockets media. They are delusional, discussing whether to get Barnes of Toronto or not as if Barnes available.
    -They have no hope for Myles Turner and try to ship before mid-season.
    -Saddiq Bey of Detroit is their only hope because Bogdanovic' presence made Detroit demote Saddiq.

    Question: Myles Turner is even not good enough for minnow Pacers, how he will be good enough contending Rockets?
    Verdict: There are enough delusional Rockets fans to compete Pacers media.

    I got news for you, fans complain about everything until they win a Championship. Not sure how familiar you are with professional sports but you can go to every NBA fan website and you will find a fan or media member complaining about a certain player or players. They want most of their players traded.....you ever seen the NBA TRADE MACHINE?? LOL

    Most fans or media members haven't even played played professional or college level sports and they have no idea the effort it takes even to put the ball in the basket.

    This is the last time I answer you, just to inform that the life is not that long to deal with you. Good luck for you. Hope you have a happy life with your Myles Turner and Jaden McDaniels. You deserve them. I have always respected passionate people. You deserve Myles and McDaniels, I deserve Sengun and Tari.
