Haven’t been on in a hot minute.
(Deadline deal) Anyway, Pacers NEED to get help on the defensive end. I love Nembhard and I think his potential is high, but (IMO) I don’t like his fit with Haliburton. Both are best suited with the ball in their hands. Nembhard is better defensively, but when healthy, Hali has proven he’s one of the best in the game. For the Pacers they bring in a defensive wing that can give them great size, mobility, and gives them lineup flexibility. I think the TWolves should consider this because of Nembhard. When he has started as the primary ball handler, he’s proven he can be great on both ends of the floor. Look back at the ECF last season. A Nembhard-Edwards backcourt could be a great duo moving forward. The 76ers imo need a good PF. These small pf’s they have aren’t cutting it. Toppin is having a good season off the Pacers bench, and could be a nice spark for the 76ers starting lineup.
Pacers- Haliburton, Mathurin, McDaniels, Siakam, Turner Twolves- Nembhard, Edwards, Martin, Randle, Gobert 76ers- Maxey, Oubre, George, Toppin, Embiid
