This is probably the best Pacers team since 98. We have a potential All-Star at every position (if you count ONeal as a center). Our lineup of:
PG - Tinsley SG - Jackson SF - Granger PF - Harrington C - O'Neal
is better than any in the East. And the bench is the deppest in the entire NBA. Miami is an old team getting older, the Nets still have no backcourt size, and the Pistons are disintigrating. The Bucks, Raptors, and Magic are all too young. Chicago has the best shot, but they aren't going anywhere with Skiles as coach and no decent PF. It is a very good year to be a Pacers fan.

It is a very good year to be a Pacers fan. i agree execpt.. 1. we are only going to be successful if we have a healthy tinsley.. 2. chicago have decent PFs in brown/thomas.. 3. skiles is a good coach.. its more that they dont have much scoring punch except gordon.. 4. i still see pistons as a dangerous team.. 5. rick has to change his robot style too suit that lineup.. but yeah if are badluck of last 2yrs run out.. then this could be a fun yr.. and harrington is good luck..

LOL not the best in the East. Tinsley is an average PG and Jackson is an average SG. Granger has many things to improve upon, and then true, two very good players in Al and J'Oneal but still not the best. Nice try though.

It scares me, but I have to say marbury(even I don't like him as a player) is better than tinsley. and Kidd is really better than tinsley. He's the best passing PG in the NBA together with nash, he's the best rebounder, and one of the best defenders at PG and last but not least, he's a winner!

ummm also Ford, J-Will, J-Kidd, plus a crop of rookies who could easily overtake him. Tinsley sucks.
