What’s the buzz on Twitter?

Will have words this afternoon but that’s a no brainer. It is literally the Torrey Craig role being filled by… Torrey Craig. – 2:05 PM

Here’s Torrey Craig holding his follow through at #Pacers practice like an hour ago. Now he’s headed back to the #Suns.
Just goes to show how crazy the #NBA trade deadline is.

I hope Jalen Smith gets his opportunity in Indy. He’s a good kid who wasn’t ready to contribute on a contender right away, but he was often playing at the wrong position and clearly showed potential. Wish Stix nothing but the best (which is as a 5) – 2:02 PM

Between getting Haliburton and a free look at a great redraft candidate in Jalen Smith, Indiana are doing this losing thing properly. – 2:02 PM

That’s all it took for Jalen Smith? – 2:00 PM
