How do you think this goes down if Vic had a hypothetical 100% comeback in february and everyone is healthy? Have turner and Sabonis had any success guarding embiid? is that backcourt going to be great with malcom and vic? On paper, it looks very close to me.

There are two teams in the Eastern conference right now that I think that Pacers would struggle to beat in a 7 game series - the Bucks and the Celtics (I rate the odds against the Raptors as about even, and I believe Pacers are favoured against everyone else)

Celtics, because I think Pacers are going to be out-coached in a 7 game series

Bucks, because Giannis

I'm not too worried about 76ers, because they are lacking in depth - all it takes is one injury or for someone to get into early foul trouble for them to struggle

Even without Oladipo, Pacers almost beat them on their homecourt, and that was despite Sabonis getting hacked and the refs looking the other way

I think it really hinges on how well Oladipo meshes with our current lineup.

I could see any of the Bucks, Raps, 76ers, Celtics, or Heat being a tough out. Fingers crossed though.
