Sometimes, things drag on for too long. Have you ever felt like a movie was too long? You probably have. You leave the theatre saying, “that was good, but if it had been twenty minutes shorter, it could have been great.” The NBA has these instances.
The situation between Myles Turner and the Indiana Pacers is kind of like that. By now, Turner has been a Pacer for too long. Trade rumors have been circling his name for years by now.
With Turner’s contract extension looming, it’s time to move on. If the Pacers don’t move Turner now, they’re likely to lose him for nothing this summer.
There is a possible scenario where the Pacers and Turner are unable to reach an agreement on a new contract. If so, why wouldn’t Indiana move him before possibly losing him for nothing?
In such a situation, the Brooklyn Nets should aggressively pursue a possible trade to acquire him. With Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving, reinforcing the defense with a top shot blocker could set the tone.
Could they send him to the Brooklyn Nets?
