TJ McConnell out weeks 

Post#1 » by Pacers Forever » Fri Dec 3, 2021 11:08 pm

Read on Twitter
?s=21

Insert Brad Wanamaker as next man up I suspect since Duarte already replaced Holiday. Martin struggling lately and Lamb no defense. Probably should see more Brissett in second unit.

Knowing Carlisle he’s gonna grind starters into the ground and not give others some run. Sometimes he’s forced to play the bench. Just a screwed up lost season imho.

Wanamaker only got 4 minutes. Neither 2 way played. LeVert must've got point guard minutes. He scored a lot of points but we lost. Also Twitter says he and Brogdon were arguing.

Star says the argument was with Sabonis.

Probably arguing about who should hog the ball and shoot the most shots.

Jettison them both at the first chance.

I can picture that. Just going by box scores (because I still refuse to watch) it appears they are ignoring Sabonis and Turner and just trying to get their own stats.

The retooling process has to start not with a Myles trade, not with a Domas trade, but with a Brogdon trade

I'd prefer a LeVert trade.

I think they should make each of you happy and trade both. Settled then? OK. So, who is going to tell KP and Herb?

Only Carlisle telling them should matter.

My hope is that they start the process by finding before the trade deadline a team who wants Jeremy Lambs 3 point proficiency. Next move LeVert and Goga. After the season move Brogdon and start over.

Yea, this

Though I'm ok with them keeping Goga, especially if they can't get anything of value for him

But yea, find value for Lamb, trade LeVert, and trade Brogdon in the off-season, that's more or less the blueprint moving forward

Obviously sucks he's potentially done. But it also really really sucks that it's his shooting hand. I would have hoped he could continue to use this season to get more game reps, especially if we're not totally focused on winning right now.

Even, even worse is that it’s his shooting hand, so it’s not like he can even keep working on his shot mechanics while rehabbing.

This team man

Even the two rookies have had their share of injuries

And now Rick Carlisle is out with COVID

I won't be shocked if next up KP randomly sprains an ankle or something while working out

Scott Agness thinks TJ will miss the rest of the season.

When you are where the Pacers are there is absolutely no reason to accelerate anyone’s rehab.
Come next year who do you like better as Hali’s backup TJ or Lance?
