Re: Woj: Sabonis for Hali
I hate the Kings. I’m thinking it’s about time for a new team.
Edit. This move better work out because it’s annoying watching this team scramble for a low-ceiling future. I’m skeptical, but my emotional reaction of “hate” has dwindled.

Re: Woj: Sabonis for Hali
Love this for both teams, even if Hali might have higher potential than Fox. Charlotte needs to jump on the phone with Sacramento right now to try to snag Holmes

Re: Woj: IND trades Sabonis to SAC for Haliburton
Awful move for the kings. Awful. Sacrificing your best building block to try a run for the 8th seed

Re: Woj: IND trades Sabonis to SAC for Haliburton
Wow. That’s a rebuild and centerpiece type young talent for Indy.
Now, who wants Buddy?

So much for Haliburton being untouchable.

Re: Woj: IND trades Sabonis to SAC for Haliburton
Thats an excellent trade for Indy. Could spin Buddy off to someone else. Not sure why the Kings would do this but I guess it shows that Fox is staying. Fox and Sabonis will be interesting together.

Re: Woj: IND trades Sabonis to SAC for Haliburton
I kinda like it for both teams though I thought Fox maybe needed a change of scenery to get back on track. Maybe this and likely a new coach (yet again) this offseason will jumpstart him.
But yeah I'm guessing no one wanted Fox for any real value and SAC felt they needed to make a change of some sort.

Re: Woj: IND trades Sabonis to SAC for Haliburton
I don't think Hali is a "centerpiece" type of player, but don't think SAC is a team in position that they should have done this. If there are no picks going with him I guess it's tolerable but I have Hali's potential similar to Sabonis in that he will be really, really good but not #1 player good. Except I like Hali's fit and ease to build with better.

Re: Woj: IND trades Sabonis to SAC for Haliburton
Nice building block for the rebuilding pacers.
It's hard to ever believe in anything the kings do because they're just wrong so often. I guess they're all in on a fox/sabonis/barnes play in game push roster. One could argue they paid less for sabonis than the bulls did for vuc at least?
