Oh I don't think the Pacers would win a title but they'll still a tough out in the playoffs and a pretty good regular season team that would bring more competition in the East.

@HeatWave: I'm pretty sure it should be the other way around and the other 14 players on the Heat should be working out at midnight.

They have talent. Even when they're banged up, they can still send a decent team onto the floor. The problem is they don't even do the basics. I don't know, watching them is frustrating. They never go to the post, they never do pick-and-roll, they don't have anyone that really demands a double-team & they don't really have someone that can consistently take someone off the dribble. All they do is dribble around the perimeter until there's about six or seven seconds on the shot clock & then make a low percentage contested field goal attempt. They have moments of brilliance & then they just stop doing what it working & fall into a jump shooting team. It's infuriating. They don't really have anyone that is dependable. Like, who do you give the ball to when they need a score? And when Granger comes back, I don't want him to be that guy either. But being in the midwest, they can't very well "rebuild" and they always finish high enough so that they can't benefit from the draft either.

Wow! The Mavs/Suns game is so bad the commentators are talking about old wrestlers after a hard foul from a pump fake. Wahoo McDaniel got a shoutout!

Wow, Stern is actually doing something right(which will still look wrong because it benefits LA but whatever) by fixing the hack-a-player problem. It`s ridiculous for a pro not to be able to make free throws when children can but it`s also really ridiculous and boring to watch. Like I really don`t want the Lakers and Clippers game to come down to who can make more free throws between Dwight and Jordan. Although he should have fixed this problem LONG ago.

From what I read Stern tried to do it but it was rejected by the NBA board of governors.

Barkley made Kevin Johnson look good? Johnson actually had the 2 best seasons of his career without Barkley.

Barkley made KJ look worse, not better. Half the time he'd just iso in the wing, hold the ball for excessive periods of time which wasn't very beneficial for KJ who didn't have much range as a shooter so his game was definitely limited playing next to Chuck. He didn't have as much control over the offense either. Not that he should because Barkley was a better player but all that needs to be said is Chuck didn't make KJ look good. KJ was primarily an iso, pick and roll guy anyway. He wasn't the type who benefited much from someone else drawing attention.

Lol @ that team making to the finals. Stern was in full force that year ensuring the Barkley/MJ match up.
