    Re: Offseason News, Trades, Rumors, Etc.

    Ig that team doesn't scare me much. I don't know if the current Pacers can challenge them.. (Certainly not if Roy isn't on top of his game) but that's a pretty shallow defensive unit.. One of the worst in the NBA I'd say. If they moved Waiters for a Tony Allen type... That would really scare me, but of course that will not happen.

        I'm guessing Waiters also moves in the deal, just to get him away from Kyrie. Maybe Brewer or Budinger comes back to the Cavs to replace him.

        It'll be interesting to see who gets packaged with Wiggins.

        It wasn't about being the team everyone loved, it was about beating the teams everyone else loved.

          If I were them I would add Waiters and try and get Lavine and a future first as well.

            Andrew Wiggins was found with a knife imbedded in his back today. Investigators have no solid leads, but...

            LeBron James wants to play with #Twolves Kevin Love, and therefore, Andrew Wiggins is now available, according to @Bob Finnan's source.

              Ender will be fine wherever he ends up, but it's probably the right short term move for Cleveland.

                Maybe we could get in on this, put up Hill and a few pieces and hope to get Wiaters and Alexy Svhed... Why not... lol

                  If Evan Turner signs with a bad team and puts up those same good numbers and then Lance is on SportsCenter every night for a highlight play, which both are really really possible, I may have to not read stuff here. It's hard to change people's mind about what is substance and what is mustard.

                    Re: Offseason News, Trades, Rumors, Etc.

                    I am actually really excited to see how this team plays without Lance, here is what I expect/hoping for.

                    1) Vogel to implement an actual offense
                    2) Hill proving all his haters wrong and show he can produce like he did 2 years ago when Lance wasn't a huge part of the team.
                    3) Hibbert getting his mojo back
                    4) West being West, nothing will change that
                    5) PG developing a post up game
                    6) Our role players stepping up and Lavoy Allen eventually taking Scolas place
                    7) Seeing how our starting lineup is with a shooter like Miles on the court. His stretching of the floor will really open up Hibbert and West to post more with the confidence of kicking it back out to a deadly 3 pt shooter.
                    8) I think Stuckey performs well on a contending team. Unlike turner, Stuckey knows his game and won't try to much. He knows how to drive the ball and get to the free throw line and is a huge step up over turner.

                    We were a better team 2 years ago, when Lance didn't play a huge role, than we were last year when Lance was great.

                      Or you could just simply could be wrong about them.

                        Lance was great up until the all-star break last year, and that's when we were truly at our best.

                          So, what's the team look like as of today?

                          PG: George Hill/CJ Watson
                          SG: CJ Miles/Rodney Stuckey
                          SF: Paul George/Chris Copeland or Rudez
                          PF: David West/Lavoy Allen(I hope over Scola)
                          C: Roy Hibbert/Ian Mahimi


                          Eh, not too bad depending on the Hibbert we get. Really want to see some changes on the bench, mainly Scola not playing.

                                Not trying to be rude or anything, honest question, but do you have a job/life besides Pacers Digest?
