Thank God, Indiana already got their 2026 1st back….

Also, Indy definitely won’t be shopping McConnell this offseason.

Suns rather have the younger player. AD isn’t going to make suns contender.

Holy ****. That’s insane “luck” if you can call it that

Honestly seems like the Pelicans have the worst luck

Just sick. Watching the rest of this game, No doubt in my mind that Indy had a championship won if not for that injury. Congrats to okc. It’s just how the chips fall. And Chet FINALLY showed up in game 7 to produce.

Yeah, not the team whose star player blew an Achilles in Game 7.

How many times have we seen a calf strain lead to a leg injury ? It’s unfortunate but it was a known risk.

Still don’t understand why they didn’t wait till the draft.

I mean you got to game 7 in the finals. I don't consider that unlucky.

Pelicans just seem to consistently make the wrong gamble on trades.

Let's not get ahead of ourselves. He's put together one championship winning team with a promising future, but he's not Auerbach, he's not West, he's not Krause. Give it time.

Do any teams in the NBA take Allen and O'Neale in to capspace?

Does it cost them a future pick?

Pistons should target him, he's a big upgrade over THJ.

Fontechio/either Klintman or Sasser for Allen
Fontechio sent into some team room exception or TPE (Wizards have one) for 2 2nds.

O'Neale is harder to move.
