Indiana Pacers

As the new NBA season about to unfold months from now, many teams have upgraded their lineup, especially at the point guard position. The New York Knicks got former MVP Derrick Rose from the Chicago in a trade this offseason and the Indiana Pacers got Jeff Teague from the Atlanta Hawks thru trade also. But one team is doing the opposite. The Minnesota Timberwolves are looking to trade their star point guard Ricky Rubio in another team. It's been weeks that Rubio is involved in trade rumors…

This summer of 2017 for the NBA was a summer to remember; due to all the major changes and trades that came during that time. From Lavar’s Big Baller Brands continous social media rants and his first son emergence as the face of the Los Angeles Lakers, to the aftermath of the Warrior's triumph over lebron James Cleveland Cavaliers; the NBA is no longer the same. We have come into an era where the three pointer doesn’t reign superior, or where the big men; the power forwards and center would…

talent and ability to play at Indiana University” Right then and there I would accept that offer. At Indiana they have the best coaching and history of any other team in the nation. Playing there is my childhood dream, just running out on the court and playing other teams across the nation. But first, I would have to finish my high school years with one more year left.

Despite wrapping up the most successful regular season in franchise history, there is a general sense around the league that the Toronto Raptors have accomplished nothing. 21 seasons of (mostly) underachievement doesn’t help. 1 playoff series win and 7 playoff series losses don’t help. Zero best-of-seven playoff series wins definitely won’t help. Consecutive playoff series losses as the higher seed……well, you get the picture! Are you still reading? Because that’s all the negativity you’re…

season Finals MVP when the Spurs beat the Miami Heat and spoiled the LeBron-led team’s three-peat dream. The following year, he was the league’s Most Defensive Player recipient. Leonard is the 15th overall pick in the 2011 NBA Draft selected by the Indiana Pacers. He was then traded to San Antonio in exchange for George Hill on draft night. Eyeing what should be his first All-Star appearance, Leonard keeps his personal career goals simple: "That I played the hardest that I could throughout my…

The 2015 free agency period began at 12:01 AM Wednesday and the flurry of deals since then have barely given us a chance to catch our breath. Just over one week removed from the draft, the league will continue to move and shake in an attempt to catch up to Cleveland and Golden State. So, in honor of the period beginning, I decided to go back and look at the best free agent signings since 2000 for each team. Today, we look at the Eastern Conference and we’ll tackle the Western Conference next…

the Celtics are now tied for the third spot in the conference with the Miami Heat and the Atlanta Hawks. Another .5 games back is the Charlotte Hornets at 40-30 with 12 games remaining on its schedule. With three more teams (Chicago Bulls, Indiana Pacers and the Detroit Pistons) within 3.0-3.5 games of the Celtics, a playoff spot is far from assured. Of the nine teams occupying the top nine spots in the conference, only one team has failed to record a winning record over the last 10 games.…
