    Hopefully Turner is o.k. and we can still trade him. I hope this is just a scare that wakes our front office up to the danger of keeping Turner too long. At this point I 'd take any pick I could for him. If he's really injured just let him expire and walk.
    Why do teams tank? Ask a Spurs fan.

      How long are we going to pretend that Mathurin isn't deserving of a starting spot and all the shots he can stomach? I understand wanting to bring him along slowly, I guess maybe it's just to try and win 6MOY this year or something, but it's weird.

          I think the usage of Queen and Taylor are evidence that there is some version of "talent evaluation" (stealth tanking) going on already. If Myles is down for significant time you will start to see lots and lots of that type of stuff.

            I’m not seeing any injury reports on Myles anywhere, is anybody seeing anything?

              Already been confirmed in this thread. He purposely hurt himself just enough last night to be out past the trade deadline. Will come back after and immediately post three straight triple double games. The Pacers will then sign him to an extension that includes a $19M bonus this year and a Max contract going forward only to see him step on Boomer's paw during warm-ups and suffer a catastrophic, career ending pinky toe sprain.

                I'm seeing a couple sites saying that the Pacers put out an injury report that said Turner was questionable for tomorrow night with a right ankle sprain.
