I havent read it yet but will comment once I do.

he sounds like he is ready to play and contribute to the pacers.

I don't think he'd be that good in a dunk contest but i went to yougotdunkedon.com and he had one really good one.

I thought Stephenson was supposed to be there to. BTW I've read that he comes with a lot of baggage but all I could find is that he was arrested for a misdemeanor when he sexually abused a girl in school. I know it's never a good thing to be arrested but at least it's not gun-related.

Don't know how i feel about George on the pacers. Don't think he will blossom there. But he was prolly BPA.

stephenson was charged for disorderly conduct for "groping" a girl at the bus stop... nothing too out of the ordinary for high school kids. definitely wouldn't go as far as saying he "sexually abused a girl in school."

^ I know I just don't like the word groping.

a charge is a charge. if tinsley did this we would be like "see i told you hes no good"

a charge is a charge? i don't think so. disorderly conduct not really on par with murder, theft, and rape.

Hopefully he learned his lesson, and realizes that from now on the women will want to grope/sexually abuse him. Play it cool.

I betcha Stephenson will turn out to be a better player than Fred Jones or James Jones.

Lance seems like a player that really wasn't into college and feels like he could wait to get to the NBA to display his talent. Cuz the man got all the talent in the world. It probly woulda been better for him to go overseas like Brandon Jennings. If he gets playing time he make a big impact this season, more than Paul George in their rookie season. I think George will be better over his career if he reaches his full potential but Stephenson looks like he can play right now.
