KCP fits perfectly alongside Ja and is cheaper than Bane. Scottie is solid as a backup and so is Cole, they got options and I doubt Memphis is done. They also could already be in on a Phoenix mega trade. They also will need to pony a lot more than the QO for Aldama, who was solidn for them. They traded 1 for 2 and got a boatload of draft picks. Smart move for a small market team that’s probably not rebuilding but going for the Indians method.
I can’t count the volume of “Indy MUST rebuild and NEEDS to trade Turner” posts I’ve seen the last 4-5 years. They did it their way and they’re proving themselves right this season. They’ll re-sign Myles in the offseason. They’ll keep building, not breaking, their team and it’s smarter than what we’ve seen teams that trade away solid players for nothing do.
Picks swaps are worth far less than unprotected 1st round picks. If Triple J is in play, the Grizz will get some better offers than that.
