5fouls Posted December 7, 2017 Report Share Posted December 7, 2017 Cody with a knee injury in tonight's game. Calling it a strain at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5fouls Posted December 7, 2017 Report Share Posted December 7, 2017 In the post-game interview, you could just feel how comfortable Vic is in Indiana. He even made a comment to the effect that "I'm going to be here a long time". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No he is on the Anti- Paul George Train and has been for a long time. This was just another shot at PG. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see. Whatever his motivation, I think he's right...when the dust settles and history passes it's final judgment, this trade will be judged as one of the best the Pacers made. Period. The only thing that changes that is a career unexpectedly cut short due to injury. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think PG resigns in OKC, but it seems like the trade did help them keep Westbrook. On the flip side, the Pacers got a guy who is statistically replacing PG and carrying himself in a way that has a better impact on the team as well as a guy who could be a double double machine for years to come. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed on the Westbrook part. If the trade was the impetus for the extension, then the trade was worth it for them even if PG leaves. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vic is a terrible fit next to Westbrook. It just didn't work. So it probably really is a win-win. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems that Vic needed the ball more than Westbrook was willing to share. There just wasn't really room for both of hem in that offense and as a result, Vic's production wasn't what it could have been. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had no idea Harden was averaging 9 assists a game. I think of him as more of a gunner. Very impressive when you look at the ratio of points he has a hand in (around 50 ppg game).
