NBA TRADE TALK: TDL over

[SleepingHero]

It feels like Indiana and Philly are shopping players the same way that some spoiled kids look for jobs after college. They keep turning down offers for increasingly dumb reasons while explaining that the employers aren't meeting their ridiculously high personal expectations. Eventually people figure out that they have no real interest in working but have to make a show of trying in order to maintain the parental support that pays the bills.

I don't think IND is actually committed to blowing it up. I mean heck, I'm sure they got LOADS of packages for Sabonis, and even Turner. If they were committed to losing, they'd probably have taken one of them by now. 

I think IND would only blow it up if they got a godfather offer. Other than that they'll continue the status quo into the offseason where they can get a relatively high pick, retool, and maybe trade 1 of Turner or Lavert. Thats how I see it playing it out.
