IMO Paul George failed at giving an honest 100% effort every night on both ends of floor and being a leader . He has the me me me syndrome, nothing against you my friend I like you . that is and has b

Mark is on an island here. I wouldn't waste too much energy on changing his mind. This team is going to the promise land.. woot.

Finally got to make it out to a game this season tonight with the youngster. Had a good time as always.    Yo, if I see Turner shoot one more three I’m gonna rush the court and vomit on him.

Prolly lol I'm like you I sure don't want love and to be stuck in mediocrity 

love only has two years on his contract, its not like we would roll with turner and love for years

 

turner, love and teague could probably be a playoff team, but like you said im not sure what the point would be.  its saving face, but still not really getting anywhere

 

we need high picks, but i think that ship sailed

Anyone who didn't think this was coming... I don't know what to tell you.

Yeah that is the way of the NBA today unfortunately. I was 50/50 on what to think though because George changes his mind every other week it seems. He is a different kind of cat and at times has loved playing here.

Picks have to be names......who do we want

Its always better to make the playoffs than to lose intentionally and hope for a 19-year-old to save you..

You can do that for 20 years

Love could also attract someone like Hayward...or Jimmy Butler down the road

We won't have to tank we will just suck 

Look, I have been and known Pacer fans since before the Pacers joined the NBA when they were still in the ABA.

The fan base will not accept sucking just for the sake of sucking. You call it sucking, I call it tanking. Either work you care to use it means the same.

The fan base will always be there as long as the Pacers play to the best of their abilities. They always have. Indiana fans know basketball and you are not going to fool them.

If this team starts tanking no matter how they go about it the fan base will quit supporting them. That means empty seats, loss of merchandising and the loss of revenue in the downtown area would happen.

It's not happening no matter what you say or think.

Talking sports with old people :facepalm::facepalm::facepalm:

you're playing ' fantasy basketball..'

.............in the real world..the Indiana Pacers are not going to tank a season

 

If we can get Love, Shumpert and this prospect Osman for Paul...I'm okay with it (Not happy but OK)

 

Casual fans forget how good  a player Love was with Minnesota

That's one draft there have been a ton of stars taken in other drafts 

But the question still stands...which players drafted last year by ANYBODY...became all star or core players.

My point is: You cant depend on the draft in the NBA...you have to acquire vets or overseas players

No only smart pacers fans want to build a bright future 

Smart fans want to lose intentionally  in 'fantasy' world

 

I hear no talk of who we could acquire or draft

Just a lust for losing.....

Let throw every game!!!

 

0-81 is super smart

'young core'?  'hitting their stride'

 

While you try to comprehend fans not wanting to lose intentionally....

Could you possibly come up with more sports talk clichés..??
