Paul George looks like he could be a natural. Roy HIbbert is resurging back to the guy we saw early in the season. Darren Collison looks like a capable NBA point guard. Throw in McRoberts, Stephenson and Hansbrough. Is this enough or do we still need to accumulate more young talented pieces?
Just saw a trade proposed where Indiana got Ed Davis, expiring contracts and several mid first round draft talents. I'm inclined think think the last thing Indiana needs are more young pieces needing minutes.
Do we have enough young talent?

Re: Do we have enough young talent?
I think Bird may want veteran role players off the free agent market but I'm comfortable with young talent filling the holes made in the roster when our contracts expire. I certainly wouldn't hire so many vets that I had no room for our first round picks or to bring a center back from Europe.

I would say almost, simply because you never know what might happen with their development, but I really like where we are at.

Re: Do we have enough young talent?
my wishlist is chandler & west in place of mcroberts/foster. i think that would really solidify our front court while our young wings come along, and possibly put this team in Orlando/Utah like territory as an outside title threat.

Re: Do we have enough young talent?
Do we have enough young talent? In sheer age and numbers, yes.
Do we have the best young talent? Not necessarily. George, Collison, and Hibbert are very nice pieces. Hansbrough could be, but is still an unknown.
