And what does this mean exactly? What does "prove" look like to you? What will he accomplish ?

Fox is a good player. He’s just not an all star. What is there to explain? Ja plays all star quality basketball. Fox doesn’t. IMO, Hali looks like he’s gonna get there. Just my opinion………

So Hali making an all star game will prove it was a mistake ?

I'm a bit taken aback by this take.
There's no doubt in my mind that Fox is guaranteed to be an all-star. He might have been slowed a little this season but how do we suddenly forgot who he was?

I mean, you’d assume he’ll miss a shot eventually but who knows?

Hey, hopefully he gets there. That last kings game actually kept my attention for the first time in forever. What little kings I watched was all because of Hali. I like the kid. He wears his heart on his sleeve and he just looked like more of a point guard to me than fox.

Ha! For any Pacers fans around, get used to that Buddy-missing-a-shot image.
Y'all really gonna torture yourself after the fun we had on Wednesday? We all knew Tyrese was good. We'll likely never know what finally made it Tyrese instead of Fox, but Fox has also looked better in the two games since. I don't care about all star appearances if both players make it I'm ok. I care about wins.
If we make the playoffs (6 seed or higher if this dopey play in continues to exist) in 23 and 24 I will consider it a fair trade.

How long before buddy wears out his welcome in Indiana?

I love Tyrese and would never forgive McNair for trading him.
But Fox is almost too easy now that he's getting what Ty was offering in playmaking but from a big who's smart and much more bruising than I thought who can get his own and hold his own. I'd even go as far to say that he would've been at least once all-star had we collectively played better as a team before. Hell, if we have kept Dave Joerger, he'd already be a multi-time all-star attendee by now.

That first quarter was really fun to watch but it also involved Buddy making all his shots and playing smart, Tyrese literally not missing a single shot, and Jalen Smith playing like a guy worthy of getting picked ahead of Haliburton. Also the Cavs are missing their All-Star point guard.
not sure why everyone’s already out here firing off hot takes in game 1 of the new era.
Well despite the national media hyping Buddy as the cherry on the sundae they seemed to make it clear they were happy to move him before the deadline according to "sources".

Hey, I've watched more C-Webb later years where he was only a shade of himself than I care to count. This at least you're watching your (well, my) favorite young player blossoming, hopefully as the Kings are as well.
They say true maturity is to be able to let go of things you love.
Because Tyrese is never going to miss a shot again

Sabonis missed MULTIPLE shots in that first game which is why the league should have stepped in to stop the trade.Because Tyrese is never going to miss a shot again

Unlike the olden days, we can actually watch our favorite players after they have left. I thoroughly enjoy watching that young man. I want Hali to succeed and I have no doubt he will.Hey, I've watched more C-Webb later years where he was only a shade of himself than I care to count.

I'm not against following Tyrese. I'm just saying let's not bang our heads against the wall or forget we look ok too. I was advocating a reset before the moves were made. I don't know how much long term potential this new team has but if we aren't in the playoffs the next two years I give up.Hey, I've watched more C-Webb later years where he was only a shade of himself than I care to count.

*but will still be here.
I just don't understand why Tyrese didn't get minutes here as he racked up DNP-CDs.
To be fair, isn't that exactly what we did after the Kings beat a mediocre Timberwolves team on Wednesday?

Yeah, it is indeed shade.
Swipa has already played well enough during his career to warrant an all-star popularity bid. Just because he hasn’t won that popularity contest doesn’t mean he’s not all-star level.
Countless players have made the team and/or been considered all-stars while doing less.
It’s one thing to not believe him to be a franchise level player, but not at a level to be considered an all-star? Give me a break.
