    Siakam is definitely a good deal better. But, same issues.

    Forwards who can lead their teams in scoring and hit threes, buy constantly are selfish, get lazy on defense, and lose the ball.

    It's probably been awhile now that we knew Jalen Williams was a better draft pick than Sharpe. But scoring 40 in the finals to lead his team to a win from the title kind of puts a nail in that coffin.

    It was obvious sharpe was mid the second we drafted him. At least to me. Was never excited about that pick and he hasn't proven me wrong yet.

    Dude is leading his team on scoring over 20ppg in the finals on great efficiency. His defense is good too. He won a title in Toronto.

    Grant didnt lead his team in anything. Simons Deni Sharpe all averaged more than him.

    Pascal averages over double the rebounds of Grants laughable 3rpg.

    It's like saying Jokic and Nurkic are more or less the same player because both are tall, white and foreign.

    Why even follow it then? Are mods required to watch the games for that huge salary your paid?

    Was hoping the Pacers would get it, but it looks like that is not happening.

    I don't get paid shit.

    Siakam rebounds so there is that.

    Perhaps the Pacers could borrow Caitlin Clark. They need consistent scoring.

    The last time they had the makings of a dynasty, ownership there was scared to pay the players and blew it up…..wonder how they will handle it this time? Future is always bright, til you gotta’ start cutting the big checks.
