Seems like robbery by the Kings.
Damn Rick finally got his guy.
How are we doing, @"burekemde"??
RC finally gets Haliburton?? Did RC want Halliburton in the draft when the Mavs almost moved up to get him?

Assumption on my part. We know Bob certainly did. He definitely reeks of a Rick point guard though.
Sacramento had 2 PGs that didn't play well together and Indy had 2 centers that didn't play well together. Seems like a pretty good deal for both teams, IMO.

I think a lot of people on a lot of teams wanted him. Sabonis was the (current) best player in this deal, but I'm somehow more jealous of Indiana right now than Sac. Given that Sac is Sac, I have higher hopes for the Pacers building around Haliburton than I do for the Kings to make it work with Sabonis.
Rick finally has his THJ too.
Medicals on Turner must be okay.
I think Haliburton is going to be the best player among the mentioned names. Maybe not next year but in the longrun. Trade isn´t moving the needle for either team but I would prefer the longterm potential over a mediocre roster with Fox and Sabonis as the best players.
I think this ends all Myles Turner trade rumors.
Indiana rebuilding nicely. Brogdon and Haliburton will work well together imho. Duarte on the wing, Turner at center. Possibly a high draft pick, pick from Cleveland and all of a sudden you have a lot to work with. Haliburton is cost controlled for two more seasons. I would flip Hield for whatever expiring and they also have a lot of cap space next summer. I see a lot sense in this trade for Indiana, much less from Sacramento perspective.
