Myles Turner talks heating up

[Lurk21]

 Myles is not my 1st option(Mo Bamba, Nic Claxton, Mark Williams and others) but he is solid when he plays. I just wish we went a lil younger but I'd take a shot of trying to get Tj Warren and sending out Gordon somehow. Tj Warren if finally  healthy, could be a steal for 10 mil per year average.

TBH, if we can't get Duren at 13, I hope that's all it takes to get Myles.  13th plus salary for Myles...  after that, I really don't care.  Although Williams' size is intriguing, he is much of the same dinosaur that we've had issues with forever now, and those guys tend to get exposed when running into the better run orgs in the league (i.e., the ones we aspire to be if we ever want to win)...  so, no thanks.

Williams type players are still valuable in this league and he would be an answer to a lot of our defensive deficiencies but I do agree that Duren or a trade for Turner would be better. But if we cannot and we have to settle fir Williams then that will be fine. We don’t have an issue scoring. We are one of the higher scoring teams in the league. We have to get some bodies capable of defending.

Would much rather try and package 13 and 15 to move up a few spot to ensure we get Duren than take on a year rental for Myles Turner coming off a foot injury. Don’t want to give up assets for an injury prone big man.

FYI - Gordon Hayward has played more games the past 2 years than Turner..

Yeah Myles Turner isn't the answer unless we get him for very little. The last thing this franchise needs is another guy who can't stay off the bench. Make a run at Ayton or just look to the draft.

Yeah it’s an unlikely possibility but I would be on board with taking both Duren and Williams if the opportunity presented itself if I’m being honest

Hard pass for me.

yes he plays a big position of need for us

yes he is a solid to really good player.

 

but he has 1 year left on his deal and as injury prone as Gordon 

 

low key, I want to trade up for Sharpe.  If not take Williams and bpa
