    It's not clairvoyance to say that the Pacers are contenders when they took the Heat to 7 games in the ECF last season and added Scola in the offseason. I don't get the point of this thread. How can a team that pushes the defending champs to the edge be anything but contenders?

    Lkrfan trying to cherry pick predictions:

    this game could kick start the Knicks as well.
    This is me calling the Knicks run in the 1st game of the resurgence. Yeah I know I know, must be a gift.

    They did that last year. It's a new year, hence, I'd like to know if other posters think they are contenders...or not.

    With your logic, the 2012 Mavs were contenders too. -10 points sn

    Well no, I didn't say at the time you make the thread that it's obvious, however the Pacers didn't blow up the team.

    At 33-7, do they still look like pretenders? This is not a sarcastic question. Just want to know what's the SpursTalk consensus.

    The one thing these ol' sports were missing was consistency in their shooting. They seem to have taken care of that so these ol' sports are definitely contenders

    Definitely a contender. If the Spurs get to the Finals and Indiana is there, I would still be terrified.

    The Pacers are on a historic pace right now. 33-7 with a +9.9 point differential, very impressive stuff. Mostly due to their dominant defense, as their offense is right around league average.

    I don't like their offense that much, really not much playmaking and shooting, looks like it stagnates at times, but their defense saves so many points over the game that it doesn't even matter. 2nd half of GS game was a good example of what I'm talking about, as the Pacers seemed to just grind out a 2nd half win despite a lot of bad offensive possessions.

    The pacers are just like the Spurs of 10yrs ago, to some extent. They ain't having another superstar outside of Paul George yet they're still kicking asses, just like the Dortmund side which won two Bundesliga championships in a row a couple of years ago. And the playoffs always favor the style of game they're playing (based on defense, see how it worked out for Memphis last season), and the Pacers haven't got such bag fans like TlongII and Thunderup

    Clear contender so far and clearly better than last year with the addition of Scola and the improvements of Hib and PG. Second unit could see a lot of improvements if Granger could get back close to a high level

    They are the only team in the NBA who can challenge the Heat this year. OKC is a bad match, Blazers are too guest, Spurs are too old.

    As much as I despise the Heat I don't see Indiana as a legitimate threat to them out East. I actually have the Heat winning in 6 if they meet up in the ECF. Pacers have a good defense but its a bit inflated due to playing in a conference.
