Watch pacers go for wiggins and Kuminga for some stupid reason and Raptors end up not trading Pascal lol.

But realistically i think this info about Indy being interested in Wiggins and Kuminga is coming from GSW just to scare Raps. I doubt Indy would want Wiggins

This feels like GS trying to up Wiggins' trade value. No one wants the athletic but unmotivated guard who's averaging 11 ppg and making 25 million and provides literally nothing else. NO ONE.

Trading Wiggins will require GS to attach ++assets.

Lol. Pretty much. Few times it came to fruition but in general the trades came from left field. Speaking of left field when are the jays gonna get a bat.

Yep, it will be a team nobody was mentioning.

Really hope we just re-sign Siakam with the list of scrubs everyone here is mentioning.

Since Pacers fans hate the idea of rental Siakam, they'll love long term controlled Wiggins and Kuminga

This makes no sense lol. Indiana has better young players for those positions unless they're trying to get them for scraps.

We have this leverage right now, where we are willing to trade Pascal, but only if you give up the good youngsters like Jonathan Kuminga and Keegan Murray. It's just a waiting game now to see who caves first, otherwise we'll probably just re-sign Pascal.

Who knows if we actually have this leverage though. What makes Siakam say screw it and I'll sign for slightly less with Philly where I'd actually be appreciated and have a better chance go win a title?

But at that point, why would they even want to make a trade?

I get them wanting to trade Hield since he's most likely gone in the offseason but they have no incentive to trade their youngsters for a gamble. Having cost controlled youth is the most valuable thing in the nba aside from having stars/superstars.

Why would raptors want that poo player from GS?... Masai would be fired if he traded pascal for those scrubs.

Philly has been prioritizing max cap space for over a year. Siakam is the only max player available this offseason and he has Rico Hynes/Nurse/Embiid connection there. Pretty hard to say that lol.

Even if that were true, the are other teams who can do it. Did anyone see Houston signing Fred? Getting full of yourself and playing a game of chicken where you can be left with nothing or much less than the guys true value will only make Masai look foolish.

Love the Pacers suddenly thinking about Wiggins; is this them trying to tell Masai they have options too? lol.

Warriors getting desperate. Too bad they have the least exciting prospects to offer.

man Pacers having interest for Wiggins is hilarious. Would they take the risk and give up Hield's expiring and hope he regains form? Cause if we can get Moody/Podz and trade Wiggins for Hield in a Siakam deal, thats not bad, imo. Podz/Moody look like the winning impact type players you'd need around IQ-Barnes-StarJ

I'd rather have Siakam walk, then take Wiggins's contract.
