    I didn't want to bring that up so thank you for doing it. So many 'scoreboard/check their record' responses to some of the issues. That there was no way they weren't a contender for some. I appreciate fandom but reality has to come into it at some point.

    They are going to have so many picks and so much cap room it's ridiculous. What did they send back?

    They traded for a huge expiring contract in Granger. Hmm. I better check on the trade details.

    So Hawes for a couple 2nd rounders and a scrub and Turner for an ending contract that Indy was dying to unload. Nice flexibility by the Pacers.

    good move for the pacers. Good insurance in case they don't want to match a big offer on Lance Stephenson

    WOW. Huge coup for Indy. He does a lot of the same things that Stephenson does, but it will be interesting to see if they can keep him this summer.

    Yes....great move for Indy. Their bench is almost as bad as ours and now that will help. Sad that injuries forced Granger to be such a shell of his former self.

    The Pacers are loading up. Maybe a little too many ball dominate players though.

    Pacers used their RLEC. Pritchard wasn't going to let that happen twice.

    best we can hope for now is a decent big like Kamam gets bought out and Neil is willing to cut someone like Barton and we pick him up

    Exactly. That is the next viable option. Good point.

    Problem with that is the Heat just opened a spot.

    Think working under/with Larry has helped him quite a bit. From what I hear, Bird is still the one running the show.
