this kid is really good

he does a little of everything

i dont think he's a volume scorer carrying the load every night but i think he makes granger expendable

and lance stephenson looks like a cold-blooded killer. a literal murderer.

I love the way he plays. Kind of like a modern day Pippin or Grant Hill where he chips in everywhere. I think he'll develop into a 20+ scorer too.

i think those are two very good comparisons. i couldnt think of a current guy he compares to

its also interesting to note that before the game tonight, shulman talked about how the heat were dialed in and redy to make a point here tonight after getting beat earlier in the season

what if the pacers are the better team? they were up 3-1 going back to indiana last year before lebron went nuts

I think the heat are pretty uninterested in regular season.

He and Batum are pretty similar. Love their game.

i think george is better with the ball in his hand and can create more for himself and his teammates

but batum is probably the closest one like him in the league

kinda what people thought wesley johnson and corey brewer were going to turn in to

maybe. battier said they wanted to make a statement but maybe not

i just know the pacers have beaten them once this year and this will most likely be two. and they were up 3-1 last year. maybe a more complete team?

Hasn't Boston worked Miami in the regular season lately as well? Doesn't mean much in the playoffs though.

Maybe, but Boston was pretty damn close to beating Miami during last year's playoffs. Closer than Indiana.

Yeah Miami has been 3-7 against Boston in the regular season since Lebron/Bosh signed.

No way! He's decent, but come on. He's shooting 42% from the field. It's his 3rd year in the league and his FG% has gone down every year. Below average for being such a mismatch physically.

He needs to at least be up around 45%.
