    Well, I mean, maybe the Pacers make the Zubac trade in June vs. February? I also think the #5 pick in THIS draft is worth more than the two picks Utah got for Kessler from a Luka-led Lakers team.

    While true, if the Pacers don't make the Zubac trade, I suspect they trade the 5th pick somewhere for a big once they landed at 5 and saw the likely options available to them there. I could easily be wrong and they stay and take the best available guard there too.

    They're going to draft at #2 and then somehow trade up again? Seems unlikely.

    Those in glass houses... Let's talk about ignorance. CJ Moore, the author of that article, went to the same high school as Keaton Wagler who was classmates with his son. I guarantee you he followed our team as much as most of our own fans. $$$...

    How many times have you seen him play in person?

    Huh? My 2nd most watched team was Tennessee this year. He had some bad games but he had an 11 game stretch during SEC play where he averaged 22.8 ppg. He started slow and got hurt in the season finale. Side note: The guy you replied to said Nate Ament was going to be drafted ahead of Wagler.

    You're right about one thing. We, as in us on this message board, don't know. But we have an entire staff whose job it is to know and they haven't added anyone yet, so I'm going to go way out on a limb here and say one is currently available that our staff likes enough to add. Good freaking...

    You know for a fact that all the recruiting services "got lazy"? This is a once in a generation miss that essentially every single high major coach missed, including our own. His son is the one who found him. Your take is what is lazy and embarrassing.

    I mean, go right ahead. For me, I don't really care how Coach K scheduled for 20 years. Scheyer is the coach now and has a different philosophy and is competing in a different ACC. We didn't play a true road game in the non-conference as recently as two years ago and didn't 4 years ago...

    Duke played at the Breslin Center this year. They played at Arizona the year before. It's essentially their new normal to play 1 true non-conference road game.

    A friend of mine who is a huge Tennessee fan said he's heard they have $8-$10M left to spend. Take that with a grain of salt, but they have money set aside for Ament possibly returning and they wanted Tanner from Vandy. Presumably, $$$ won't be an issue for Juke.

    Just some random Kentucky podcaster's opinion but it's the national perception of our roster.

    LoL. Alright, whatever. They're bringing back 87% of their minutes on a 1-seed that had an off night against Iowa. I'm not going to bother arguing with you. You're dug in and never admit you could possibly be wrong. I'll take Evan Miya saying they likely have the best roster in the country...

    I dunno man... this Florida team is legitimately stacked.
