Warriors. Easy money
Every player on the Knicks except Hardaway and Shumpert should be traded asap.

This is bullshit! You cant be giving me the picks after the windows have closed! The Knicks game was over early and i could have parlayed that into this game!

The NBA is far too hard to bet on without your help...

Agree. Suns couldn't miss for most of first half and Pacers seemed rusty missing lots of close put backs. Dragic was a beast for them and Green has a chip on his shoulder for us.

Stephenson with another triple double and he's not on the all-star team? BS.

The dreaded "first game back at home after an extended road trip" rears its head as the Pacers, off a 5 game West Coast trip, lose outright. Fading teams first game back has been profitable angle over the years.

The Suns are a very fun team to watch. I've always been a fan of Dragic.

Heat need a miracle now with the Pacers signing Bynum. They better hope Oden is healthy enough to give them 20-25min a game come Eastern Conference finals time.

It sucks that Bynum and his bad attitude get rewarded.

rpncaine · #13 02-01-2014, 11:10 AM

I just hope he doesn't f%$* up the chemistry the team has now.
Not sure who will get cut but it means we can play two big boys at C and PF much more. Hibbert/West/Bynum/Scola/Mahimi should wear out anybody as they can come in waves.

Dont think anyone gets cut as they had an empty roster spot. You'd have to imagine he will strictly just back up Hibbert which will take minutes from Mahinmi.

Obviously Bynum is far better than Mahinmi but this really wasnt a big need for Indiana and was probably more along the lines to keep him from Miami than anything else.

I dont think he can mess this up. Indiana has done this the right way, improving the last 3 years. Improving to right now being favorites over Miami to win the East. I would call them favorites to win the whole thing even without Bynum. Pacers are too well coached and have the right kind of superstar in George to let this guy mess **** up.

I imagine the Pacers will regret this signing. I would have worked out a deal to just pay him to stay home and not play.

Agree. More then just a bad attitude. A total punk, multiple reports say he simply does not like basketball.

Yeah Bynum looked awesome this season...

Well actually I think he has moved pretty good. Plus in October it was reported that he would likely not debut until after the all star break with the goal being 15-20min a game come playoff time. Ahead of schedule, and honestly if Bynum can give Indiana 10min a game with Hibbert how does Miami even compete if Oden cant give them anything? Unless there is another vet out there that they can sign?

He was out of shape to start the season and hasn't played in a month so i'm guessing he will be a little heavy. He is a big offensive move up from Mahinmi but how important is that really? I just dont know that he is much of a factor as a 12 minute a game player in the playoffs. Plus the 2nd unit has Granger and Scola, both who dont mind shooting the ball so how will he mesh with them?

Miami's has issues with rebounding but they have for the last few years. I'd be concerned that Battier and Allen arent shooting well and are at the age where they might be slipping fast. Without spacing Miami's offense will have issues with Indiana size. Bosh has been shooting more 3's and hitting a pretty good % but he is also one of Miami's few consistent rebounders so you help one area while weakening another. You'd have to figure that Riley is going to whatever it takes to win this year as I'm sure he sees Wade's knees, Allen and Battiers struggles and the fact that the Big 3 can all opt out this offseason and understands that the window might be closing.
