        darn, i guess Mayo and Harden were defending each other, 40 and 39 I'll have to check that game out.

        it's amazing, Mayo is still at .500+ on 3s after 20 games.

          What else is new?
          First time in a long time, I've been happy with the team that was constructed, and now they struggle. I blame the coach.

            No player in the NBA has made a bigger leap this season than Eric Bledsoe, the Clippers third-year guard who has been dubbed Mini-LeBron. Bledsoe is being under-used currently and could be the NBA's next franchise changing player to become available via trade.

              I'm sure many of us would applaud pursuit of him. As always, the key question is, "How much would we be willing to give up for him" (that would be of interest to the Clips)?

                Bledsoe is the guy I wanted to pick, my hope was for the Pacers to buy or trade for the OKC pick that year glad to see that he is doing well, I'm not sure he is a pure point guard but he is pretty damn good, he could be like an small version of Westbrook but with better passing.

                The Pacers could use him for sure but they don't have the pieces to make anything happen.

                  You don't pursue Bledsoe if you don't plan to start him. I think we'll sit this one out.

                    I don't think that should preclude an inquiry on our part. If he's as good as some people think he is, we need to at least see what the asking price is. Worst case scenario, George Hill becomes the best Sixth Man in the league - and that's a move that wouldn't need to be made until Danny gets back from injury. As far as I can tell, from a contracts point of view, we wouldn't have to make the tough choices for another year - hopefully enough time for Bird's full recuperation.

                    He'll probably be priced out of our range, but we've got to make that call to see. These are the times when KP gets to do his thing.

                    All that said, we've already tried the CP3 backup route before with limited success, but you can't say you wouldn't make that trade again.

                      Oh, funny of you to say that.

                      How exactly did the Pacers screw up?

                      Did they screw up when they traded for him but the deal with the Grizzles fell apart? Did they screw up when they pursued him this off-season but he opted to go Dallas in order to be a start?

                      Just tell me exactly how the Pacers screwed up in this situation.

                      They didn't screw up. He accepted less money for a year to be a starter and raise his market value. But you just love to be inaccurate and negative all the damn time.

                        Would you guys trade PG for Bledsoe? I feel like I would.

                          So you are repeating the same bs and inaccurate bs everybody keeps repeating around here(the OJ Mayo only wanted to star bs) and you are calling me inaccurate? you are funny.

                              No but for a healthy Granger I would. That would be a good trade for both clubs IMO. Danny would be deadly as the 3rd option. I was wrong bout Jamaal Crawford still a chucker but damn has he been good this year. He made me look good last year he was a cancer in Portland but he is terrific for the Clipper he has been their closer so far.

                                Crawford has been amazing, him, Mayo and Felton are playing well.
