Hello there! 

Post#1 » by pacers33 » Sun Jul 11, 2010 8:20 pm

Hello, I'm Marvin George, I'm from Washington DC, but moved to Indiana a few years back. I have a very interesting story on how I became a Pacers fan.


So, it's 1997, me and my father order tickets to the Bullet's game at an auction, we bid the highest and we got them, turns out, it was Indiana tickets! :lol: So, we thought, "What the hey?" And we drove to Indiana, saw the games, I feel in love with Reggie Miller, and here we are now. I moved to Indiana on my own now that I'm 20. I selected pacers33 because of Danny Granger's number, 33.

Hey.

Welcome! Reggie was a pretty easy player to fall in love with...unless you are a Knicks fan!

Welcome to the forums Marvin! Feel free to jump into any of the threads, or if you'd like in this thread, give us a little synopsis of where you think the franchise is/where they should go!

Alright, here's my analysis.

In my opinion we should go after a cheap point guard, like a Luke Ridnour or a Jordan Farmar type of player. We need money for NEXT year! We could land names like Camerlo Anthony, but who we really need is Tony Parker, if Tony Parker joined the franchise we'd have a PG who can handle himself down-low and be a good distributer. His mid-range game is quit good too, and he was also the finals MVP in 2007.

Welcome Marvin, and I too wish we could get Melo but big name free agents don't usually end up in Indiana

It looked as if Parker could be in play for the Knicks next offseason, but the Felton signing might have halted that.

Max-money for an expendable guard scares the hell out of me.
