D. West to Pacers according to ESPN:
Free agent David West signs with Indiana Pacers - ESPN (http://espn.go.com/nba/story/_/id/7341777/free-agent-david-west-signs-indiana-pacers)
So The Indiana Pacers would look something like this....
Starters
PG ~ George Hill/Darren Collison
SG ~ OJ Mayo
SF ~ Danny Granger
PF ~ David West
C ~ Roy Hibbert
Bench
C ~ Jeff Foster
SF ~ Paul George
PF ~ Tyler Hansbrough
SF ~ James Posey
SG ~ Brandon Rush
SG ~ A.J. Price
Not bad at all....Seems like the Pacers wanna make serious run.... :)!

In the link it states that OJ will be traded for Josh McRoberts

I wouldn't be shocked if the Pacers were a top 4 seed in the East this year.
Heat, Bulls, Celtics, Pacers, Knicks, Hawks, Magic, 76ers.
Edit: If Dwight goes to the Nets then replace the Magic with the Nets. Obviously the Magic w/o Dwight wouldn't be a playoff team.

Yea Pacers are going to be very good now if these new pieces mesh well together. They have a very complete starting lineup and Canseco should be bumping because front office is making moves and they are coming off a playoff season. I hope the Knicks Pacers rivalry comes back. I was too young to really appreciate it!
They are looking pretty good :)!
Posey was told to stay home BTW.

Man, I'm thinking I should go to the Pacers-Bulls preseason game on Friday. Tickets are dirt cheap.

I like that team.....especially getting rid of McBob. I'm not a Hansbrough fan either, but I like how this team is made up. Especially, if Paul George makes the big step up that he could.

Whats great is they have the pieces necessary to pull of a killer trade without messing with there core....so should they mesh early I can see them making a trade to put them over...
Paul George/George Hill/Tyler Hansbrough & 1st Round Draft Pick for CP3!!!!...lol!
If the NBA keeps screwing around and pissing teams off that might be the best deal available.....haha!

NO! Bird has already said that PG is untouchable in trade talks and I don't blame him.
But they could make a move for a big time name if need be without killing their depth.
Rumors are saying that they are going to make a hard push for Nene. If they land Nene, then the Pacers have a very bright future. It's bright now, but wow.

You might be able to throw Jamal Crawford into the mix as well. They have a 2 year, $10 million offer on the table for him.

The deal for Mayo is off. Grizzlies notified him today that he is not being dealt.
Lakers now interested in McRoberts and a deal is very close.
Pacers are turning their attention to Jamal Crawford. Offering him 2 years/$10 million.

For me I'm putting money on George Hill to win 6th man of the year award if he doesn't start.

He won't, Collison is still with them. I wouldn't doubt it that he wins that award though.

He is very capable of coming off the bench averaging 14ppg, 5apg and shoot in the high 40s...... not to mention his 3 point capability. These are the type of stats you need to win that award.
I think his biggest threat is still Jamal Crawford and James Harden. Pacers would also have to win 50+ games.
I think he's worth it........ just a cheeky bet :D

Is Crawford not with the Wizards? Seems odd to be a FA after your rookie season...

Jamaal Crawford, not Jordan.

I had completely forgotten about *Jamal* Crawford's existance.
My bad guys, has myself confused there for a second. Getting up every day at 4:30am warps your mind...

haha....Duh...right....
Jordan Crawford (who?) feels he is ‘better than [Michael Jordan]‘ - Ball Don't Lie - NBABlog - Yahoo! Sports (http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/blog/ball_dont_lie/post/Jordan-Crawford-who-feels-he-is-8216-better?urn=nba-wp9911)

I think we can land home court advantage in the playoffs this year....if not 5 or 6 seed
I can't wait until we get Eric Gordon next summer...
collison/hill-gordon-granger-west-hibbert
with the other of collison/hill, paul george, and psycho t coming off the bench

I had season tickets during those years. I STILL remember many of those games. It was a great time to be a Pacer fan.
