The stoop with dat dope fanny padding
I agree with Kieff being a knucklehead....but he’s actually the better offensive player between the 2. It’s been that way since high school. He was the one that was drafted higher...he was the one that gave up money so that the Suns could sign Marcus. It’s just that Marcus got placed in a perfect situation with a well coached team.

Meanwhile Markieff was injured and with one of the most dysfunctional franchises in the league. It’s crazy how winning can change perception...Markieff signs a 1yr 4M deal while Marcus signs a 1yr 15M deal.

Ain’t no way Marcus is 11M better. That shyt doesn’t even make sense

Marcus has definitly been better last two years

Markieff got cut last year and then couldn’t make it off the bench in okc

Where do you guys rank the Pacers in the east?

Was reading an article able how they’re stuck in purgatory and it’s the NBAs fault.

I think with a healthy Dipo they are the 3rd or 4th best team in the east. With an outside shot to make the finals

Good team. They'd be a championship contender if they had a superstar to drop into the lineup. Oladipo's supposed to miss like half the season next year too according to their GM.

As is, they're a tough out in the playoffs but no real threat to get to the Finals. I don't see how they beat the Bucks or 76ers

Both Indiana and Utah tooled up nice for two cities/markets no Marquee Free Agent will ever sign, and have two of the better head coaches in the NBA.

In regard to Indiana, it’ll obviously be heavily predicated on how Dipo plays when he comes back from that gruesome injury. He has the work ethic no doubt but wasn’t it a broken leg or some shyt? They lost Bogs who lead them in scoring to Utah so hopefully Brogdon can replace some of that production. Sabonis and Turners are A little redundant and Myles damn near averaged 3 blocks but I don’t see him as a defensive anchor.

Nate McMilly should have got more shine for Coach of the year and I think this team can remain be a top 4 seed as they 5th last year, they played well after he got injured, but as a go to guy , I sorta became a believer in Dipo when he went toe to toe with LeBron in that series.

Don’t seeing them beating better than the Bucks or Sixers in the payoffs, but any other team out East is winnable for em.

I'll say what wasn't the NBA's fault was them failing to get D'angelo Russell this offseason.

They should still make the playoffs but they aren't going anywhere. If they keep the team competitive long enough and keep developing their players and their talent they should be able to get lucky sooner than later.
