The Indiana Pacers have made Solomon Hill available in trade talks.

Hill was a first round pick in 2013 but has fallen out of favor despite averaging 29.0 minutes per game last season.

The Pacers elected not to pick up their team option on Hill's contract for the 16-17 season.

It's hilarious. Porzingis is balling. I have no problem saying he provides more impact than Brook. Dude is more mobile than Brook, better passer, and is a solid 3pt shooter.

The Los Angeles Clippers have tested the trade market for interest in Lance Stephenson and Josh Smith.

Stephenson can be traded now, while Smith is not eligible for a deal until Dec. 15th.

The Clippers haven't viewed Stephenson and Smith as good fits on their team so far.

"There is not much of a market for them," one NBA executive said. "They are buyout candidates. Maybe Lance goes back to Indiana, you never know. You won't get back much for them."

Said another team's front-office executive: "They are talented, but when you add people like that it does affect the chemistry of their team. I don't think they will be traded. It's a tough thing to do because they didn't have a lot of takers beforehand."

The Clippers have also been open to trading Jamal Crawford since the offseason.

Playing on a youthful team with talent, hope, and a future has a way of reinvigorating the legs.

Why are we comparing a center to a face up PF? The only thing they have in common is that they are 7ft+ white guys.

The Warriors really might not lose a game this season...

jbeachboy · Post #49 » by **jbeachboy** » Wed Dec 9, 2015 3:02 am

i think spurs or some top team will sneak up one night on them but thats probably the only loss if they do lose.

teams will have to wait til the warriors tire out or get an injury.,

I would love to see a revenge-seeking LeBron face an undefeated Warriors team on Christmas Day. Epic matchup. Probably another 40 point-game by Curry while LeBron goes off for 30-10-10.

Yeah, the idea that these guys can run the table is silly. They would have been done for had Lopez made the putback.

They're a great team, they have a great core of players but I wouldn't be shocked if the get beaten on Christmas day. Lebron is going to bring it to them

Have you guys found Knick fans in particular to be extremely hypocritical? Like one of my friends told me to stop talking about the no call against Lopez when we lost to the Cavs. Same person today is crying about the Melo no call acting like Adam Silver should be fired hahaha

robin lopez is struggling with knicks.

And the Warriors win again. Beat the Celtics in double OT.

That was a horrible game from the 4th quarter onwards. The rest were terrible all night but by the 4th quarter, both teams were tired and making stupid errors.

Wroten is a turnover machine, no thank you
