Pacers are an exciting and fun team to watch. Excellent offense, they are the type of team that will beat you by outscoring you. I'm also excited to see what Mathurin can bring to the table when/if (but it's a small if) they make the playoffs. Too bad he was hurt last playoffs and hopefully stays healthy to contribute in this season's playoffs.
That said, I think the Pacers are still too young and need more experience for them to win it all. Maybe another season or 2 with more playoff experience until they become a true contender. I could be wrong, but I think this season is not their time yet. I also think they lack paint defense and rebounding. Last season, they were ranked third worst rebounding team in the regular season and ranked second worst team for points given up in the paint. A good center that can protect the paint and rebound would improve them greatly, and that center is not Turner. I guess you have to pick your poison; Turner is a great scorer, but can't defend nor rebound for shit.
The Canadian Connection is an awesome nickname!
