Talkin' Turkey! (Pacers 8-0 and why they NEED to trade Danny Granger)

"Woo... that's that Brooklyn shake playboy!"

I pulled up at a light in the hood and saw these three cats that were definitely lost arguing about perfection. Antoine de Saint-Exupery, the French aristocrat and poet, said, “A designer knows he has achieved perfection not when there is nothing left to add, but when there is nothing left to take away. This funny dressed playa named Aristotle shouted, “Pleasure in the job puts perfection in the work. Then this older guy from Wisconsin named Vince Lombardi killed it when he said, “Perfection is not attainable, but if we chase perfection we can catch excellence.”

The Indiana Pacers must have been standing across the street listening to these duns argue because they’ve put all of that into practice to start this season 8-0. They dismantled the Memphis Grizzlies on Monday night 95-79.

This is the best start in the franchise’s history and only the seventh team since 2000 to achieve it. On some real talk, they’re only the 18^th team to EVER do it. So we’re watching something special and in my T.O. voice, “Get your popcorn ready!” because it’s going to get even better come playoff time.

The Pacers are literally going to work on boyz like a surgeon without the Propofol playboy! They're making sure that these teams feel it. Every night there is a collective effort of boyz gettin’ it in and Monday night was no exception. Paul George brought his usual 23 points to the table. Big Boy Roy Hibbert added 5 more blocks to the kitty of his league leading 35! George Hill threw in 13 points for good measure and Lance Stephenson took us to Brooklyn and picked up his first ever triple double in a brown paper bag! He finished with 13 points, 11 rebounds and a career high 12 assists.

Let’s keep it real or all the way 100, whichever comes 1^st! These duns are lethal right now and the chemistry is sick but there’s one problem playboy, what are they gonna do with Danny Granger? Frank Vogel said that he will begin working out on Tuesday and could return to practice by Wednesday but wouldn’t say when ole boy would return to the rotation.

If we’re gonna talk then let’s talk turkey like Ray Gibson bruh! Danny Granger led the Pacers in scoring for five straight seasons before he went down with a knee injury and pretty much missed all of last season. Paul George came out of nowhere to replace him and played like a maniac leading these boyz to Game 7 of the Eastern Conference Finals. The front office paid him $90 million to keep it movin’!

They’ve already got 5 cats in the car and nobody is arguing over leg room or the radio station. Paul George is driving with the joint on cruise control with his arm hangin’ out of the freakin’ window. Now who are you gonna push out of the ride to let Danny get in?

They’ve already gone to the mountain top and looked over without him. If he’s been the man for five straight years you aren’t going to convince him to get in the middle seat in the back. I can’t call that seat what we used call it growing up in the hood because I gotta keep this joint PG; but if you grew up there too, you already know what it is and he's not gonna sit in the middle bruh!

So again, what do the Pacers do with him? I say they shine him up like new money, sit him out in front of Bankers Life Fieldhouse and put a sign on him! "Gotta go! Will take best offer or will trade for best combination of role players playa!"

So what does that really mean? It's means to put him on the floor for the next month so boyz can see that he can still play and take the best offer. It's just that simple! They really don't NEED a thing. Take some bread or future draft picks but don't mess up the chemistry.

Why take the chance of ruining the chemistry that you've worked so hard to create? There’s no way you’re going to convince me that he’s getting in the very seat that no Alpha male alive is willing to sit in. Not after driving the freakin’ car for five years. No way! So let’s avoid the drama and keep it movin’.

Y’all know I’m right so don’t even attempt to argue with me on it. What more needs to be said? It makes no sense to shove that dun in the car while everybody is happy and they’re perfectly fine. What did ole boy Aristotle just tell you? “Pleasure in the job puts perfection in the work.” As soon as you force him into the ride you’re gonna throw the alignment off and that can create all kinds of problems. Trade him and keep the peace! It ain’t personal, its just business! Stop me when I start lyin’!

Holla At Ya Boy!
