The Indiana Pacers can definitely be regarded as the most magical and surprising team of the season. Not only because Halliburton can contribute a winning goal (a draw) in every round of the series during the playoffs, helping the team perform a 20-point reversal like drinking water, but also because the Pacers have been "low dogs" all the way. As a small-scale team that does not pay taxes, it is really not easy for them. This also became a point of attacking the New York Knicks and the team reporters during the Eastern Conference Finals, believing that the Pacers were supported by teams in the big-season.

Nowadays, walkers are expected to change their inherent ideas. According to the report of famous reporter Shams Charania, due to Turner's outstanding performance, the team has been discussing the early renewal of the contract with the old minister of the three dynasties. Charania mentioned a very important point - in order to keep Turner, the Pacers even planned to pay luxury tax next season, but they have not paid luxury tax for 20 years. The last time they paid the tax back to the 2004-05 season, there were still Reggie Miller, O'Neal Jr., Artest, "Martial Saint" Stephen Jackson and others in the team. According to reports, the Pacers intend to pay Turner an annual salary of $30 million, and his existing contract, worth $19.93 million in the last year, will expire after the end of the season. At this critical moment, the Pacers sent two signals, one is to stabilize the morale of the army, and hope that the players can focus on the court without distraction; the second is to show that the team management is very satisfied with the record, and even if they fail to win the O'Brien Cup in the end, the team is willing to retain this team and continue to strengthen.

Of course, for Turner, this is also a real reward. In the fan circle, Miles Turner has a nickname called "Legendary King of Selling", because he is trapped in trading rumors almost every season. His name will be associated with several popular teams in the offseason, but he has never been traded and can only fall into this cycle again and again. Turner has expressed his boredom with this state more than once, and said that he did not even dare to buy a house in Indianapolis, for fear that he would be traded away after buying a property.

Now, Turner can finally buy a house in Inn City with peace of mind. Unlike his old partner Hilde, Turner finally achieved his goal in his parent team. As an old minister of three dynasties, he proved himself with his strength and conquered the management. With the big contract, the two-time blocking king is destined to leave a strong mark in the team history. You treat me with a national hero, and I will repay him with a national hero. Next, let’s see if Turner can stand up on the stage of the finals, proving that the Pacers’ management’s vision is not wrong!
