Pacers signing Bynum

[He Who Posts Well]

Let's hope we do

Even if it doesn't work out, we still have 3 of the top 15 players in the league in our starting lineup. I'll take that over anything any day. We didn't sign Bynum because we already have a project center in Oden and he is probably looking for more than the veterans minimum. So fukk him. We have Oden, if it works out its icing on the cake.

I think being on this team with; all the young guys who get along great, a vet like David West who ain't gonna take any bullshyt, the player development of Frank Vogel and Larry Bird, could rejuvenate his career

"It really wasn't a hard decision, I think it's the right fit for me," Bynum said in a statement. "In all honesty, I think we've got the best chance of winning. It will be great to back up Roy, and I'll do whatever I can to help this team."

I'll take that attitude.

I'd solely be thinking about whether or not I can trust Westbrook's knee moving forward, and Jackson has done a decent enough Westbrook imitation for me to move him. I know they're great with Westbrook, but those knees are just timebombs imo, and the fact I could get a 23 yr old big you can run offense through would be That move would give them the potential to be an all-time great team, mainly because Ibaka covers all of Cousins weaknesses.


I think the Kings would do it @Trojan 24, as long as they got back a name like Russ.

Cousins is a good passer too so him and durant would work well together

 

[Luke Cage]

I give it a month before the pacers are looking to get rid of him.

not sure why we would need him passing, scoring historically has never been our issue.. besides this season defense has been. last year we put up one of the best statistical ppp seasons in history. boogie would be borderline useless on our team, just a ton of inefficient shots down low.

You don't need some All-star PG to win the 'ship tho. Bigs have much more impact on the game and Iblocka covers up Boogie from the weakside. He doesn't take inefficient shots down low, he takes too many jumpers, he's shooting 48% from the field this season.

ibaka's statistically better at the 5 when durants at the 4. boogie would get in his way downlow clogging up the paint 30+ minutes a game. why slow down the pace of durant/ibaka to have a low efficient big man not named shaq use 30+ possessions per game. makes zero sense to me.I rather wait til adams improves who actually cares about defense and rebounding over boogie. . exactly he takes too many jumpers he's a low iq basketball bplayer

 

[Brozay]

boogies slow and pretty inefficient, he's a high usage player that would slow down our pts per possession. he's not really a great interior defender either i rather trade for a guy like gasol/hibbert or any big that can defend. don't really need anything from that position offensively but speed and the ability to hit the boards. simple dump offs are fine. put serge at the 5 and stretch the floor allows durant to facilitate boogie would regulate us to the half court too much imo. Durant at the 4 and Serge at the 5 is some of the best lineups in the league.

plus i'm not a huge fan of jackson starting, he's a good guard but terrible starting caliber player.

Yeah I tend to agree with you on this one. Boogie is inefficient and would slow down the team. Low key what I think people overlook is how great they have been defensively. They make this trade and they get worse defensively

I dont see the need for the Thunder to make any big moves, they are already the best team in the league

 

[DoubleJ13]

Unless Russy has a knee that wouldn't allow him to play or the offer is just too ridiculous OKC ain't trading him.




Awaits the Bynum/David West confrontation that allows the Pacers to suspend Bynum while keeping him on the team just so other teams couldn't get him

 

[street heat]

well that's it. Miami is toast. not only did they not get him, but they let their rival that already overwhelm s them with size get him.

 

[Brozay]

So you didn't watch the bulls at cleveland and when the cavs came to the uc he was sonnin noah both games

i mean, yeah, he had a couple nice buckets, but he was a liability on defense from what I saw

the talent is still there, i just dont think his knees can hold up

regardless, its a good move for the pacers. i mean... why the hell not sign him and see what happens? no sense in letting miami scoop him up

All he'll do is take Mahimi's minutes. That ain't really asking much
