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.

Chuck, just curious.... As of today who wins the East in your mind? I have Miami, but Im not confident at all in that anymore.

Right now I think Indiana has a slight advantage but it is still pretty close to a toss up. 2 1/2 months from now things might be different. Injuries can be a big factor. The playoffs dont start until after the Derby preps are finished.

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.
