lol tinsley is horrible, where is his production?

i also don't know how you can give credit to players' performance to coaches. dunleavy long needed a change of scenery.

fact is pacers still don't have a SG.

Celtics would sweep them by like a average victory margin of 12+

NO KIDDING CELTICS WOULD SWEEP THEM YOU HAVE BRILLIANT INSIGHT VYSE

tinsley is horrible, no kidding, the point is this year he's putting up 13.8 pts, 8.3 asts, 4.5 reb, 1.6 steals per game, which is very good. i do attribute that in large part to the coach and the system

pacers dont have alot of positions, in fact id say outside of granger (and sometimes JoN) they dont have any quality NBA players

"i dont want my celtics seeing them in the first round"

"NO KIDDING CELTICS WOULD SWEEP THEM YOU HAVE BRILLIANT INSIGHT VYSE"

dude, why are you posting.

dude, this isn't fantasy. he's shooting 38% from the field and TWENTY SIX PERCENT from three, which means 13.5 FGA for 13.8 points, LMAO. toss in 3.6 to, which leads to a 15.5 PER, and frankly i'm surprised it's that high.

Bobbo,

I sort of agree with Vyse here. Tinsley is playing a lot like his usual sucky self. It's the completely unexpected performance of Dunleavy (and to a lesser extent Marquis Daniels) that's made this team average. If Dunleavy just needed a change of scenery and he keeps playing close to this level, this team will stay in the playoff hunt. I have my doubts but at least it's fun to get excited about this team that I thought would win 25 games.

Also, Jeff Foster is a quality NBA player. He's been in the Top 10 in rebound rate the last five years in a row and he's a very solid defender too.

[Vyse]

jeff foster is god. he's like reggie evans who doesn't foul.

[kidcolin]

yeah, considering how happy I am with the Scot Pollard pickup, I'd be creaming my jeans if Foster was a Celtic.

Could a stud high schooler opt to do his year hiatus in a tough European league rather than waltz through a year in college?

I feel like this would be much better preparation both on and off the court.

Huge downside is obv national exposure from domination in ncaa tournament they would be lacking, but I'm kinda suprised that no one has done this or talked about it.

I don't think it's a better/great idea, or that it should become the status quo, just wondering if it's been done/talked about.
