Evan's premiere a great success

[Am I Blue Through it All?]

Kid looked fabulous. Yeah he missed a couple of defensive rotations, but what can we expect this early? A real side benefit is that he is likely to light a fire under Lance. Man, those two must be something else in practice.

I was really happy with his performance. This may have been just what we needed.

You beat the worst team in the west who also gives up the 2nd most PPG in the league....Really nothing to get excited about.

Ya, well we have seen Granger do worse in similar situations this year, so for us, it is something to be excited about. We will see you soon.

13-6-2 in 26 minutes and 50% FG and a steal, just 2 TOs.

Great stat line in the first game with the team, I would just be impressed with the 26 minutes but then to produce is pretty awesome.


Didn't watch the game, what lineups were the Pacers playing him in? I assume he probably got 12 minutes in the 4th?

Cool little chess game IND and MIA are playing, MIA does every thing it can to beef up inside, IND signs Bynum, IND now looks to get more offense especially from their offensively challenged back court.

Let's see who MIA picks up from the discards in the next months.

You better show the Lakers some respect. We are second worst. :rollseyes:

His Stat lines versus the Lakers


22/7/6 with Philly
15/7/3 with Philly
13/6/2 with Indy


it seems like a par for the course type of night versus LA....maybe a little worse, but less minutes

You celebrate what you can, until you can celebrate things that matter.

Yay you guys have an expiring $8M player with a QA for $8.7M that you may feel pressured to take because he's 25, a former #2 pick,etc (call it the Jeff Green syndrome, except Turner's not as good as Jeff Green even and Green ain't exactly great)....

And now while you can spin it you may have leverage if Lance tries to squeeze for more money, you certainly would not help your cause putting Evan in Lance's shoes.

I think this is the yr for the Pacers as you've got $66M committed next year without Lance and Turner....

Actually, he got some quality minutes in the first half. These new guys come with a benefit. A couple of our bench players that had been playing poorly picked it up.

Why don't you clowns quit proffering your sour grapes and just suck each other off like you really want to. It seems like you could really use the release.

Yah, if they don't win the East this year it will be a fail. This might be one of their best opoortunities for sure.

A GW shot is a GW shot. Not a bench player on a new team doing what he has been doing except less.

He looked fabulous on the bench during the ECF also

Yes another bench warmer
