Pretty bad news...Miles is having awful luck with the pandemic...really wanted them both to find growth in that camp.

1. Mid-range shots sexy again.
2. Slow-footed centers, err....

I'd be pissed if Nored leaves for Indiana.

I don't understand losing Nored to IND I thought he was a big reason Hayward came here

I've suspected since last summer that Kupchak intends to trade Hayward to the Pacers.

He might have been, but Nored has his own career to look out for. If he sees this as a chance to move up the ranks and get a more senior coaching position, he should do it.

I've wanted this since day one.... would happily attach 11 to Hayward to get either of their Cs. Probably a lotto protected future 1st on top if it's Sabonis.

This is just an assistant coach building his coaching tree, getting experience with multiple organizations and keeping his name in the news. No need to try to make this seem like its some primer to a blockbuster deal haha.

That has less to do with the team he is on and more to do with Kaminksy.

Hayward is from Indianapolis, the Pacers were trying to get him last year via a sign and trade, his college roommate is now a coach there, and we've been reported to have strong interest in Myles Turner for over a year. I don't think it's that farfetched to suspect a trade could be forthcoming.

I think the Pacers would rather have PJ over the 11th pick. If we're getting Sabonis I'd go for it, especially if we can land Jalen Johnson in the draft.

I read this as Kemba for Simmons, but the 76ers wanting some of the OKC future picks to make it happen.
My picks:
2020 Draft (3rd pick) - Tyrese Haliburton, Devin Vassell, or Onyeka Okongwu
2021 Draft (11th pick) - Moses Moody

Would the Kings be dumb enough to do a Fox for Simmons exchange...?

I wouldn't want Simmons if I was a decision maker for a team right now.

BTW, man I'm pumped for Hornets 2021-2022. The wait will be worth it bros!
