Got 2 allstars for 1 disgruntled one in a small market...Pacers won.

Damn right they did!!

Sabonis was the stretch big man that Billy D needed but I mean you kinda HAD to give him up if they chance to get PG came. I just think it was Russ who stunted his growth

Dipo and sabonis are not even close to the same players they were.

Dipo credits westbrook for being as good as he is now actually.

Roberson literally a one way player and was getting laughed off the court for his freethrows. You cannot count on a player who literally had to run away so he wouldnt get fouled because he cant get free points. Elite defender but thats all he can do.

Grant didnt become shyt until the year after. Then he got some balls and was able to take it to the hole without being spoonfed points.

Adam's is Adam's, so I'll give you that. Some nights hes amazing others not so much.

I think the team westbrook had couldve become good in his time there but at the time they were definitely not as good as now.

It's like saying you have 18 year old Steph how come you didnt go to the finals?

Because he wasnt prime steph.
