1). Garrett Baggs - With the recent drought of wins, do you feel the team's goals for 2023/24 have changed? Would you expect us to make a win now move or two by the deadline? If so, other than TJM & Buddy who would be most likely moved?

2).Corn Snobb - I think Aaron Nesmith has EARNED a starting spot on this team. While he probably isn't a starter on a contending roster, do you think he is on this one? If so, who should he replace? If not, why?

3). MVPacer - I can't see us coming to a deal with Toronto... but what teams ACTUALLY need Buddy and TJ the most, do they have any wings that would work for us in a trade?

4). Brettsketball- Is Aaron Nesmith the 2nd best player on the team this year?

5). Chase aka Pacers World - your ideal starting and bench lineup until we make a move

6). Jason Lough - Are the Pacers really better off trying to win now at the expense of further developing guys like Mathurin, Sheppard, Walker and Nembhard when they are sitting at .500 anyway

and vets like Buddy and Bruce haven't played particularly well?

7). Jeff Kew - Lots of talk about the usual suspects for trade targets. OG, Siakam, etc…Give me your under the radar trade target heading into 2024 that we're not talking about. My two cents...Tari Eason.

8). CFalcon31- I believe Nembhard is a better long-term git than Mathurin. Who do you think fits better long-term with Haliburton in the back-court?

9). Vinnie - If we go after a 2nd star, what are your thoughts on including Turner in a deal and then scooping up someone cheaper like Jarret Allen or even Poeltl who are decent pr bigs that rebound good and are a giant drop off on defense?

10). Tyler Johnson - At what point does Rick start giving Jarace consistent minutes? The losses (ugly losses) are starting to pile up and although he's surely flawed his defensive potential should have him out there given how bad we are in that area.
