Top 3 2-way player at the wing imho. With Bron and Whi. I like West too, sad he's wasting his final years on that squad but I don't dislike George though.
So did I, but it was calculated to be a number that Lance would see as a lowball offer. Bird has already signed Lance's replacement, he's just trying to get some sort of a useful asset in a S&T.

Makes sense but the dude is worth what he was offered imho. And Bird still seemed to love Lance to be back even after his BS against Bron.
That's about the equivalent to hearing Houston called and offered Lin or LA2 offered Kobe. LOL Bird thinking anyone wants Lance. I bet he got a 480 on his SAT just like Kidd.
Bird also wants the fan base to believe that the team made a good faith effort to keep Lance. If he leaves, they want him to be perceived as the bad guy.
George played pretty horribly in the Pacers' funk. I still think he's grossly overrated off one great series in the '13 ECF.
Well yeah, always been the scapegoat behind Hibbert.
Yes, exactly. No reason for the Suns to do this.
Don't see Dragic fitting in the Pacers system. Fantastic offensive player, average to below average defensive player, great ball-handler but will take possessions away from PG. I can see him revitalizing Hibbert by feeding him, but on the other hand, Hibbert clogging the lane will cut off penetration opportunities for Dragic.
Dragic is a layup or 3 guy, he does have a good midrange game, but that's not his bread and butter, he penetrates and does it very well. With Hibbert in the middle, West clogging the lane, and pretty much no outside shooting, Dragic will be severely limited.
This is an acquisition that looks good on paper, but will likely end up hurting both team and player. Unless the Pacers unloads Hibbert for a stretch 4/5, and add a couple of shooters in the process, I can see them being a fantastic team in that scenario. Shooters are easy to acquire, stretch 4s and 5s, especially good ones who can play a little D, are not.
Exactly, with team D they can cover up for Dragic. And the system would change with him, their offense is so ing bad that if they go down by 10 it's almost over because it the lead feels like 30. And also, PG should not hold the ball for most of the possessions, he doesn't/can't be Lebron.
Damn the 90's Pacers would absolutely destroy today's Pacers
If Indy can get Dragic and keep George/West/Hibbert, Indy will be champions next year.
Dragic is still arguably the most underrated player in the NBA IMO.
That will never happen because the Suns management is not re ed.
Their owner, however...
