Myles Turner on Pascal Siakam’s future: He’s a free agent this summer season. We’re hoping that he indicators again in Indiana.

Kevin Pritchard was very adamant about attempting so as to add extra size, and he was in a position to get it accomplished with a particular participant. I’ve actually loved taking part in with him within the frontcourt collectively. He’s somebody who’s additionally going to assist my sport. He instructions a lot consideration that I’m in a position to get free for my threes.Supply: HoopsHype

Extra on this storyline
Myles Turner on Tyrese Haliburton: He’s undoubtedly helped transcend my profession, to say the least. I believe the most important factor with Tyrese is that he desires to go greater than he desires to attain. Whenever you consider a degree guard, you’d suppose that may be the epitome of that, however in a league the place scoring is paramount, it’s a rarity when you’ve got guys like Tyrese who embrace that function of coming in and being a creator however also can step up while you want him. I believe the sky’s the restrict for him. The previous two or three years since he’s been right here, his ascension has been unbelievable. He’s been in a position to actually assist a franchise that was at its lowest and take it to new heights. On the subject of the controversy of the very best level guards, clearly I’m biased, however should you actually sit there and break down his sport and take a look at the numbers, he’s main a historic offense. We’re among the finest offenses in NBA historical past. We simply set a loopy share capturing from the sector in Recreation 7. He’s main all of that, and it’s not accidentally. I believe Tyrese could be very particular. He’s somebody who can create not just for himself however for others. It’s actually helped deliver out the very best in me. -via HoopsHype / Could 21, 2024

So far as a staff aim, the aim is to win a championship. There’s no different option to put that.

You take a look at your self within the mirror and ask your self, “Am I the issue?” You’ve been overestimated your total life, and while you get to this stage, all the things’s below a microscope. Whenever you begin taking part in for these multi-million greenback organizations, any little factor that goes fallacious, the blame goes to be on you. That’s the place it acquired in my profession.

No. 1 Boston Celtics vs. No. 6 Indiana Pacers. Scout’s outlook: The addition of Siakam is big for the Pacers, clearly. It offers them a real go-to man. I wasn’t positive how he could be built-in, however he’s slot in fairly properly. I like the way in which they play. They share the ball. All of it begins with Haliburton. They transfer it. It’s not an accident that they’re the highest-scoring staff, as a result of they play staff basketball and so they’ve acquired lots of guys who can shoot it. I believe their bench is best than Boston’s bench. I’d take (Obi) Toppin, (T.J.) McConnell, (Ben) Sheppard and (Isaiah) Jackson over (Sam) Hauser, (Payton) Pritchard and (Luke) Kornet. … The absence of Porziņģis goes to be an element since he’ll miss the primary two video games, and I believe that provides the Pacers a bonus.
