Kings trade Haliburton, Hield, Kardashian to Indy for Sabonis + more

[GoldenGlove]

Shoulda been a Bull

I just remember them really liking LaMelo, I really don't recall them having much interest in Tyrese.

Between that draft and last year's when they had 18 that they were rumored to be package to move up, they really missed out on high level players that would have completely changed the trajectory of this franchise

Haliburton has arrived

 

[br82186]

Players taken ahead of Tyrese in 2020 Draft:

1. Ant Edwards
2. James Wiseman
3. Melo Ball
4. Patrick Williams
5. Isaac Okoro
6. Onyeka Okongwu
7. Killian Hayes
8. Obi Toppin
9. Deni Avdija
10. Jalen Smith
11. Devin Vassell

Ironically 2 other players in the lottery are on the same team

People still drafting Edwards over Haliburton 10 out of 10 times

I’m still trying to understand why this guy was so shyt in FIBA ball but gets these numbers and stats in the NBA. Goes back to my theory that NBA ball is just pure entertainment basketball and not fundamentally good basketball.

He was one of the players this summer that shocked me in that tournament with how atrocious he was but he puts up 20/10 in the league in his sleep damn near.

He was actually one of the better FIBA players until towards the end when his defensive awareness got exposed. Also, FIBA isn’t as fast or spaced out as the NBA.

One of those trades where both teams came out well in the end.

The NBA equivalent of the Jared Goff Matt Stafford trade.

You're not making the conference finals with Fox and Sabonis as the top two players on your team, just saying

The Pacers wouldn’t be in the conference finals in the west …just saying

The NBA equivalent of the Jared Goff Matt Stafford trade.

This like trading Haunter for Beedrill

Then seeing Haunter evolve to Gengar as soon as the trade finished

If the Eastern conference was actually healthy they wouldn't be here either
