When healthy, I’d expect them to be much better than us. Salary aside, Barrett is the only player in the starting lineup I wouldn’t trade straight up for the Pacer’s counterpart. Randle vs Sabonis is the only question mark.
But if we could pick up Brogdon and Turner, I dunno. I’d be deep in conversations.
I’d go all in for a brogdon/Turner combo.
C Turner
F Randle
F Barrett
G Fournier or Burks
PG Brogdon
That is a dangerous group if it clicks.
Fournier or Randle would have to be traded to even approach the salaries needed.
We only need Turner.
His impact would be as effective as D Rose acquisition last yr
Turner is better than Mitch overall - so it would probably help if the chemistry is good. That said, we would still need a PG or someone to help Randle not dominate the ball so much. This shouldn't be viewed as a one step move. We need at least three moves in my estimation.
In order for that not to happen you would have to hire a new coach.
Have you ever seen THIBS bark at Randle after one of his bone headed turnovers, he's quick to blame the refs or one of his teammates.
Rose, Taj and Randle can do no wrong in THIBS eyes
