@Nanufrom12th @BenJustJamin13 Top 4 seed in the east for the next 2 years. Let’s hang a banner. You’re a clown

@URDauntedBitch @BenJustJamin13 He was all defensive team last season he played fully and I think if Haliburton made Myles Turner look like a border line all star caliber player he’ll make zubac look better too . Go cry about something else kid . Pacers got a top 5 starting line up and are top 4 seed in east

Keaton wagler and the ghost of Benedict mathurin For zubac Is a good trade for the pacers Everyone can get their jokes off though

@itsCSB__ #5, an additional unprotected first, and a second, is an overpay for a 10 year vet who has never been an all star or made an all NBA team. Could it workout? Sure. Both can be true.

how is it an overpay when: • the Pacers were not bringing back Mathurin • they traded a 2nd/3rd string center • traded a protected pick where, if conveyed, presumably none of the prospects available would help this team on Day 1 like if the trade being an “overpay” hinges on the outcome of some ping pong balls, then i’m just not quite sure that’s an actual overpay

@PacersFanRyan @roosterbra812 LMAO it takes 2 seconds to google. Don’t embarrass yourself, Ryan.

@URDauntedBitch @roosterbra812 He was third team all nba LMAO what are you talking about man 😭 clearly he’s a top center

The problem is that Pacers fans are looking at this like we lost Dybantsa or DP or Boozer or Wilson for Zubac. We didn’t. We gave up Wagler or Flemings or Burries or Acuff. Was it a lot? Yes. Will it pay off? It very well could. But at least the front office believes in the core.

@Seanmac90 @nicksimpson1713 @BenJustJamin13 Yeah no teams have ever figured out how to get creative with cap space before. I should have thought of that. Sorry Sean and thank you for the valuable input.

@URDauntedBitch @nicksimpson1713 @BenJustJamin13 These casual ass fans just think the salary cap doesn’t exist🤣 look up how much Bam makes dude

If someone could tell me how the pacers were gonna keep the 5th pick and find a starting level center for next year with no cap space I’ll wire you 10 grand We were never keeping that damn pick

@PatMcAfeeShow @PacersKev “We like our guys” Haven’t we heard that from another Indy GM? Same result for both

"We knew there was a chance that we could lose that pick.. You have to take these risks in the NBA and we love Ivica Zubac.. We're excited about our team" ~ @PacersKev #PMSLive

@Nickdonalds @PacersEnjoyer Interesting. Please cite some of the players you’re referencing.

@URDauntedBitch @PacersEnjoyer Happens more often than you’d think.

Praying that Zubac goes out and makes an All-Star team next season just to remind everyone how good he is. Some of the things being said about him today are actually insane

@AlexTheColtsFan @KamitronPTW @damiendc_ @jakequery What about KAT?

@KamitronPTW @URDauntedBitch @damiendc_ @jakequery Mikal Bridges got 4 first rounders The Jazz got 5 first rounders for Rudy Gobert Knicks traded their entire young core for OG Thunder traded a 21 year old averaging 15/7/6 for a 29 year old bench defender in Caruso People don’t understand asking prices

Pacers needed a starting C Pacers acquired a starting C Pacers risked losing a potential star acquisition . They used #5 pick for a staring C, & at 5 there will be a plethora of players… at positions they are stacked. Top 4 would’ve been icing. The cake is still pretty good

@BarnetteJaiden @GTheHookman @YeahYeahOkBro Get fucked, Jaiden

@URDauntedBitch @GTheHookman @YeahYeahOkBro Imagine being this miserable as a sports fan. Jesus Christ

Even with getting hoed in the lottery, we’re going into next year with a better starting 5 than the one we went to the Finals with

@roosterbra812 Mathurin was gone, but restricted. Should have been sign and trade. Unsure what metrics you’re using, but I haven’t seen any that has Zu as a top-10 center.

@URDauntedBitch Mathurin was gone regardless. IJax so far looks diminished after the Achilles. And to get a top ten center on one of the best deals in the league you have to give up a couple picks.

@Auto_Levels @gldivittorio lol most of those data centers have 10 extreme low level and low paying employees

@gldivittorio Because workers exist in quaint midsized towns. Infrastructure to sustain workers exists in quaint midsized towns. No one wants to drive to the middle of nowhere to work, deliver, service etc.

One thing I don't get about data centers— there is sooo much flat, empty, highway accessible land in the US that might require some additional infrastructure but would face far less backlash. Why are these AI companies always trying to build LexCorp in quaint midsize towns?

@damiendc_ @TheEagleScout @jakequery It literally isn’t

@URDauntedBitch @TheEagleScout @jakequery All NBA defense is still All NBA, you clown. Embarrass that.

@GTheHookman @YeahYeahOkBro Brother, nothing would make me happier than being wrong about this.

@URDauntedBitch @YeahYeahOkBro I have to agree with the first part of your statement. I think fans assuming they’re going straight to the Finals is not living in reality. However I wouldn’t say the future is dim. More so uncertain, it could still pan out great. I guess we will see.

@damiendc_ @TheEagleScout @jakequery You know it takes 2 seconds to look up all nba and you would have saved yourself the embarrassment.

@URDauntedBitch @TheEagleScout @jakequery He is also a FA and demanding a max contract despite the fact he can’t get on the court. Zubac who was All NBA last season.

@Daltin2010 @jakequery Bam, Sengun, Mobley, Kessler, Naz Or you trade the 5 straight up for Zu today and you keep your other picks.

@URDauntedBitch @jakequery Who apart from Zubac is going to fill the immediate need we have, that we can get for that price?

@indysportsfan0 @masonyo25 @EliPerlmut96759 Some fans act like we traded for prime Kevin Garnett. WE GOT A 29 YEAR OLD WHO HAS NEVER MADE AN ALL STAR OR ALL NBA TEAM and we traded two fists and a second to get him.

@masonyo25 @EliPerlmut96759 some fans are acting like we just traded dybantsa. WE WOULDVE GOTTEN ACUFF OR WAGLER. these guys won’t contribute to winning. we filled the biggest glaring weakness of the roster and are going to be competing for a title. every single one of us wanted the pick, but it’s worth it

Pacers fans: Let’s simplify the trade. Would you trade Keaton Wagler, Bennedict Mathurin, Isaiah Jackson, and the 2029 26-30th pick for Ivica Zubac and Kobe Brown? (Ivica is the 20th highest paid center btw) I am ABSOLUTELY doing that trade, especially with BM/IJ gone in FA

@KamitronPTW So we’re essentially traded; Myles Turner, Ben mathurin, IJax #5 overall An additional unprotected 1st round pick And a second round pick For Zu. And you’re celebrating

People need to stop saying we tanked all year for nothing. We tanked all year for Ivica Zubac, a center upgrade from Myles Turner and our long-term starting center that we really needed. Having a top pick would've been great, but it's not a be all end all #YesCers

@Daltin2010 @jakequery He was a restricted free agent we 10000% could have done a sign and trade with.

@URDauntedBitch @jakequery We can't trade Mathurin. He wasn't contracted beyond this year, that's why he got moved. He's a FA, and projected at 30-40m a season coming up. We couldn't keep him. We get Zubac for half that price.

@Daltin2010 @jakequery The pacers trade #5 and mathurin for a starting center. Or they trade #5, Ben, another unprotected first and a second for a superstar.

@URDauntedBitch @jakequery Addressing "injury prone" comment. Haliburton missed 9 games in 24(Hamstring), 13 games in 23 (bone bruise), 26 in 22 (bone bruise/twisted ankle), and 5 in 21 (back stiffness). Absolutely unbothered by any of this. Who are the Pacers taking at 5 this season?

@NeverQuit116 @NbaWoody 2 firsts, a second and our 6th man is stealing?

@NbaWoody We had to play Tony Bradley in The Finals bc we couldn’t keep Hertstein off thr glass. Ben was gon walk for nothing. We stole Zubac from the clippers

I still do the deal for Zubac. I’m just shattered we don’t have BOTH. We get the 2031 pick back, my anger is with lottery “luck”. I love our team. 💛
