@2006Coltsbestever Hey buddy, did you decide. We're going to get lotto going today. -
I think you guys are making are making good points. It's true it's hard to get and keep a star in Indiana. That's why I think we need to expect the Pacers to draft really well, among the best in the league. It's true that they are not likely to have a high pick but there are plenty of really good players that have been drafted in the teens and 20s over the years. I know the Pacers are not going to have a top 3 player to lead them but I think the 2013/2014 group, the Pistons during the 2000s, and Pacers of the 1990s are some examples of the type of teams that the Pacers should be trying to put together. Those teams didn't have a bunch of great individual players (though I'd say Reggie and Billups were, and PG was emerging as great) but collectively they played great. The chemistry those teams had was outstanding. The Pacers need some guys with a chip on their shoulder, who have been overlooked, and have the underdog mentality. It's not like PG ask out of town when the Pacers had a great team. They were not going anywhere and PG knew it. It will be difficult to keep a star, true, but before it comes to that I think the Pacers need to put together a team that a star will want to stay and play on. I know the odds are against the Pacers to win it all. I know the blueprint will be different for the Pacers than say the Lakers. I just think that there is a way for the Pacers to put together a really good team and they should try. They way they have been going about this isn't working.

Not random teams. We'll hold a lottery for GMs to pick their teams. So in the example above, if we have 18 GMs, we'll first draft teams based on that random order. If that makes sense. Looks like we have 18 takers, so we'll need most to double up on teams. Some have already PM'd me saying they are happy to do multiple teams. Probably should let the frist 18 pick their teams, and then go reverse order to pick the second teams (18th picks 19th too, 17 picks 20th, etc.). -

I'm afraid our D breaks a lot this year like the did second half last year. If that's the case, our O will have to take a major step forward, or at least be more dynamic. -

Yup. Brady certainly was an upgrade, and a role model of leadership and culture, but that D late in year was a terror. And yes, I'm worried about all phases of the D to be honest. Autry and Houston will be missed, and I think our run D will miss Walker. If we didn't have so many other big needs, I'd want an upgrade at MIKE.
