Got a lot of talent on this team but still need to work on intangibles.

Solomon Hill is going to be a bigger loss than people realize as we're going to need that second wing defender to help out George.

Another big to compliment Turner would be nice as well. Maybe Festus Ezeli...

BUILT NOT BOUGHT!!!

I just question why Bird wasn't this aggressive when Artest and O'Neal were around.:doh:

Stickied....and like we haven't heard this before. It does look like a solid team but you need some more pieces to solidfy that bench. Ezeli would be a good option and I heard you have $15 more mil or so to play with, that can get two good players and veteran.

Fuck off. What's the purpose of a message board if everything is supposed to be posted in a single thread???

The Cavs and Heat are going to be our bitch for years to come.:suds:

holy fuck you guys got Jeff Teague and Thad Young? the Cavs are screwed. LeBron is DEFINITELY going to flee to the West instead of contend with that juggernaut in Indiana ;)


hope there are some good matchups next year.

The Pacers do have the one thing that is the most important, and hardest thing to get in the NBA- a true star in his prime.

Paul George is the second best player in the East in my estimation. I think they need to replace Ellis with a guy with size and defensive ability- or at least bring Ellis off the bench as the 6th man. Start Teague- and get a 3 and D shooting guard. Especially with Thad Young who is a weak defensive PF...they need help defensively.

Yeah. I liked the Teague move for them. Don't think Thad helps much at all.

Considering how little we gave up for Thad, it's quite a bargain. If nothing else, it's needed depth.

LeBron can't play forever, so somebody's gotta compete with them...Might as well be us.

Sure, you gave up nothing of value, but it is still money spent on a player that may not really for the roster.

They made their team better but I don't see them being anything more than a 2nd round team. Young is nothing special and while I like Teague and think he's good, I also think he's a bit overrated.

Outside of Cleveland, who in the East can you say is definitely better?

No one.
