I like my Pacers as a top 4 in the east. Some are underestimating me because of trading Mitchell. I think Luka, Zion. and KP could be a dominant big three. I also think George, Conley, and SGA could be a dominant big three when the new ratings come out. Add Gobert to the Clippers scoring trio and they look bad as hell.

Its going to be fun playing this out; and I do not expect to go undefeated this off season by any stretch...

I got Toronto. LeBron is gonna be amazing on the sim no matter what. Zion might not be.

Its hard to not like LeBron but sooner or later he has to take a bump in the wrong direction. Maybe its not this season. Even if is, it means he goes from a 5.0 to a 4.5 or 4.0. Definitely a big part of a contender still.

I loved Collison back in the day. It would be good to see him back in the league, provided he is at least reserve worthy.

Holmes was just a monster off the bench for me last year too. He's sneaky good generally. A bit like Harrell without all the fanfare.

Hard to say what the Sim will think of KP - it used to really favor him - and you have depth around them. I think this is the year the Sim really catches up to how dangerous the Zion and Luka combo is. You're gonna be trouble.

KP is going to be the trick. If the SIM follows last seasons NBA production, KP is stellar offensively ( .476/.376/.855 shooting splits and a .582 TS% ) and he takes a hit defensively. My hope is nothing changes and I keep his solid defensive rating.

The SIM needs to catch up with Zion. So does the Pacers coach. Hopefully all these lineup changes put the offensive emphasis where it needs to be.

My bench has won both match ups so far. 18 - 6 and 19 - 10.
