Pacers General Manager: The outside world believes that we are ushering in a transitional year, but it is the most dangerous when underestimated

According to the "Setting the Pace", Pacers general manager Chard Buchanan recently said when talking about the prospects of the new season that although the outside world generally believes that the team will usher in a "transitional year" with Thales Halliburton absent, the team does not agree with this statement.

Buchanan said: "We think that when players feel despised and ignored, they tend to perform best. Because of the lack of Halliburton, people talk about Miles' departure and think we are no longer important, but that's the atmosphere we want."

Buchanan said that although the team will face huge challenges without Halliburton, the goal is still the playoffs and hopes to take this opportunity to continue to accumulate experience.
