Sorry Dirk. You're a cool dude and all. I was happy when you owned D-Wade and LeBron in the Finals. But you're getting thunderdunked on by Myles Turner tonight.

The last time I watched Isaiah play he torched my team to the tune of 40something points. The next day, in anger, I rode a roller coaster that he could not ride due to height restrictions. I then remembered my promise to myself to bear no ill will toward others and voted for him out of his respect for his skills.

Well it'd be cool for the Pacers to roll out a lineup of Teague/PG/Melo/Young/Turner, but then I think about the lack of defense outside of Turner with the addition of Melo and I just cringe.

Femur posted:

What's going in Indy pacer fans? is PG making the All-stars? I've have not heard anything talked about them outside of PG's few quotes and some early Miles hype this year? how is the new coach working out for yall?

I'm 10 hours late, but I'll comment anyways. They're mediocre. On paper they have a good squad imo. Only glaring need I see is a SG to play over Glenn Robinson III and moving Monta to the 2nd unit. I'd still love for Bird to re-sign Lance when he's healthy (I think the Pelicans released him cause they need bodies).

Bird has really pissed me off with hiring Nate McMillan though. That guy is the most lackluster coach I've seen in the past 5 years. He's like the Tony Dungy of the NBA. He has no business being a head coach. Sure the team can put up some points, but they can't play defense to save their lives. And above it all the one thing that really gets me is that Bird came out and said that a new voice was needed in the locker room because the players were tuning out Vogel. Then he goes and replaces Vogel with another voice from the same coaching staff. Beats the purpose imo.

ScooterMcTiny posted:

PG is absolutely an all star, without him they're a 10-win team. Myles Turner is the future. Nate McMillan is exactly who we thought he was. A lot of roster turnover coming into this year, it's kinda a dumpster fire. The George Hill-Jeff Teague trade looks like a bust even though Hill is injured again. 7th seed first round exit feels about right.

I still like the Hill-Teague trade. The team definitely needed a true PG that can attach the basket. Hill had no killer instinct when PG was there.

And they probably will throw money at George Hill too.
