Third best small forward in the league and it's not debatable. Mentioned this early on during the regular season. If he figures the game completely out he can become a Top 3 player in the entire league.

lebron, durant and paul george?

come on son. Paul George could not lead a team to the playoffs by himself without hibbert and west. that is a team effort. switch paul george and lebron, and lebron's team would have swept george's team in this series.

Roy played like trash for the majority of the regular season...go look up his regular season numbers compared to his playoff numbers and get back with me. Meanwhile PG was a stat stuffer all yr long...and a premier 2-Way player all season. He's taking his game to another level now.

Flu played pretty well during the regular season but played like a guy that should be waived or amnestied in the playoffs. Who helps their team advance?

No chance the Pacers win in Miami, this was all about making it go 7 games.

Miami star power vs the Spurs team ball with vets.

I disagree. Weren't you theorizing that the pressure was on the home team? I think it will be a great game.

It sure was but the whole heat team didn't bring it for 48 min, if they did the pressure would have killed the Pacers.
Now watch the Pacers don't bring it for 48 minutes in Miami and the heat go on in triumph.

They have all their first and second round pick from 2013 to 2018.....

Yeah but their magic years were when Walsh was in ny. He is back in Indy running the draft. They are already set up to do well for a long time. For the pacers sake, hopefully they talk with Vogel about who to draft. Pacers dodged some bullets. Their team and coach were in place before old and in the way returned.

No Crush they have Pritchard there the guy Walsh hired.....the guy who helped draft Roy/Batum/Aldridge...his major gaff was Oden over Durant but he had Roy there at the time...

Speaking of expectations what are the Knicks since trading for Melo and what are they now 3yrs later?

No I dont have sour grapes.

It's just corny when you and TKF jump from young team to young team in your attempt to throw shade on the Knicks. Denver was supposed to go further than us in the playoffs. ELIMINATED. Golden State has a great young team with a future. ELIMINATED. Durant is so efficient and Melo is a Chucker. ELIMINATED. Now onto the Pacers.

It's just corny.

I agree. But while Walsh was messing up knick drafts, trading picks, moving and allowing young players to leave and signing a guy to max contract tha couldn't be insured and who doctors predicted would not be able to play ball by 2012 Pritchard drafted this current group of pacers and acquired George hill.

We don't jump from young team...it's an ideology period doesn't matter the team. A core of youth mixed with vets with present and future assets in the fold has been our MO period. Doesn't matter the team.

There's a contingency of fans such as yourself that figure the Boston Celtics(although I don't necessarily include them in this ideology)/Miami Heat/Lakers Big 3 schtik was the way to go

Woodson and Grunwald said they were keeping Lin. What is your point? Money talks.

You know dam well no one but Melo is getting extended. Come on man.

West isn't getting too much more than $10mil/yr...the competition is the Atlanta Hawks and that's about it.

We also have to pay Shumpert Paul George money when Melo wants his extension since Shump is Paul George
