Is # 1 enough to get K Love? I don't think so, not this year anyway. Cavs would have to offer next years 1 also as Wolves have no first next season.

My guess is that Cleveland would have to at least include a package of Anderson Varejao with the 1st overall pick to land Kevin Love. With that said, I don't think it's that bad of a idea for Minnesota to explore since they'll be losing Love eventually and inevitably one way or another.

I wish the Wolves would trade Love so that we can squash all these Derrick Williams trades.

Chris Sheridan ‏@sheridanhoops 12m

Over/under on Roy Hibbert's second foul is 90 seconds into first quarter. Previewing #Pacers-#Heat with @CineSport

- 90 seconds sounds about right. heat win by double figures in game 5.

I bet Lebron doesn't get called for one foul this game as well.

If he was a Pacer he wouldn't be. Just ask Nazr Mohammed.

sam young is so useless on offense.

Disgraceful is the word. He used to have a decent midrange game at Pitt. I'm guessing the playoff stage is a little too big for him.

you know what else blows? dj augustin. pacers have no bench. it will be their undoing.

This series is tough to watch as it is as I want the Pacers to give the Heat fits for as long as they can and every possession seems to be so important. But the absolutely toughest part is to watch the stretches of games with Hill on the bench and Augustin playing the point. I have to cringe and pray that he doesn't lose the ball when being pressured by Cole every time he takes the ball up the court.

Even if we take the Granger injury for granted, the Pacers could have had a way better bench. They screwed a pooch by signing Gerald Green and D.J. Augustin. Replace them two with some decent signings (I'm not even acting all smart in hindsight by saying that they should have known that you can trust Nate Robinson) like Carlos Delfino and C.J. Watson and I could actually believe that they could win this series. My prediction of Heat in 7 stands.

i dont think they knew DJ was going to be this bad...i dont know if DJ has regressed or if he just always been this bad but when the pacers go to DJ, hansbrough and sam young....its awful

I didn't expect Dj to be this bad! He had some good games for us and appeared to have a good handle.
He needs a bigger set of testicles.

george hill gets 4th foul. game over. dj will kill the pacers in the 3rd.

Unless Wade suddenly gets healthy the Spurs will dismantle Miami.

They should have gone after Sessions.

I watch DJ play now and I'm just amazed that this is the same guy who did so well as a rookie reserve, or the same guy who averaged around 15 and 6 as a starter another year. Both of those were decent teams, too. Sad, really.

You can't stop Lebron when he plays like that.

Post #657 » by **fatlever** » Fri May 31, 2013 2:18 am

i used to think i was being a bit harsh to the dj fanboys by suggesting that djs best role would be that of a jj barea type, sparkplug little man off the bench for 15 minutes on a playoff team. the pacers would kill to have jj barea instead of dj right now. both are similar in size and skill but barea is fearless and has that little man confidence. thats the difference.

I remember when I used to debate with people on this board who thought Augustin was superior to Kemba :roll:

pacers blew there load in this game...12 points feels like 20

DJ has no gusto. I don't think he'll be in the league in a few years. Quite sad. What happened?
