NBA Draft: Willie Warren Still Undecided


Oklahoma combo-guard, Willie Warren, is still pondering his future. If he came out last year, some mock drafts had him going in the mid-Lottery, exactly where the Pacers could be picking this year. A nice combo guard is what the Pacers need, but one that can help score alongside Danny Granger. Could Warren be the answer to Indiana’s problem at that position?

Can A.J. Price Be Pacers Long-Term Plan For Backup PG?


A.J. Price’s pro career has already went full-circle and he’s only a rookie. As a 2nd round pick, it wasn’t a sure thing that he would even get a contract with the backlog of point guards already on Indiana’s roster. He went from sitting out the first month of the season to seeing substantial playing time here over the last two months. Could A.J. Price be Indiana’s long-term plan for their backup point guard?

Yep, I Bet Against The Pacers


I have a rule that I never bet against a team that I’m a fan of, it goes against my code. I had a few dollars left in my online account and was looking to put some money down on an NBA game, but there are only two games on the docket tonight. Toronto vs. Cleveland and Indiana vs. Miami are the games and the TOR/CLE line was Cleveland -11, a little to large, so I wasn’t feeling it. I ended up betting against Indiana, but the way that the Indiana season is going, can you blame me?

Pacers Go Small & Beat The Suns 122-114


The Pacers played small ball and came out with a win. They knew that this would be a fast-paced game and they didn’t start Roy Hibbert at center, instead they went with Troy Murphy and Tyler Hansbrough as two power fowards.

Random Pacer – Derrick McKey

I want to let people remember that Derrick McKey was a very good player in real life and not just in NBA Live 95 or NBA Jam on Sega Genesis.

D-League Round-Up – Fort Wayne Mad Ants


The Fort Wayne Mad Ants is the NBA Developtment League team for the Indiana Pacers, Milwaukee Bucks, and Detroit Pistons. The season is currently 13 games in and the Mad Ants are 6-7 on the year. The Pacers currently don’t have any players assigned to the squad, but it’s always good to see a few players that the Pacers could call-up at some point this season.
