Myles Turner is already the best offensive big on the Pacers. This is a fact, and one of the properties of a fact is that losers on the internet are not allowed to dispute its factuality. Jordan Hill, the other midrange shooting big on the roster, is a decent offensive player but he’s not Brook Lopez 2.0 With Better Rebounding like Turner is. And Mahinmi is not even in the discussion. He’s sitting outside the conference room where the discussion is taking place and pooping in his diaper.
The Pacers are so bereft of big bodies that the only other guy I could bring up is Lavoy Allen. I think Lavoy could be good but he doesn’t get minutes. That’s fine with me because his ceiling is to be like Myles Turner 0.4 With Bigger Moobs.
Since Myles Turner is the best scoring big on the team, I see no reason not to give him a ton of minutes as the Pacers push for the playoffs. Unlike a lot of rookies past and present, playing him actually helps win games, so there’s no reason not to do it unless you hate your fanbase, the entire state of Indiana, and fans around the world who want to see Turner go bananas on a regular basis.
