    I don't even know if they will make the playoffs with their current squad... their 1-3 positions are now horrible with Stephenson leaving and PG being out. Here are my current Eastern Conference projected playoff teams:

    1. Bulls
    2. Cavs
    3. Raptors
    4. Wizards
    5. Hornets
    6. Nets
    7. Heat
    8. Hawks (I'd stick the hawks in over the Pacers -PG as long as Horford can stay healthy).

    In the case of an injury like this, does the CBA still allow for a cap exception in the amount of the players salary? If so, the Pacers could make a play for Bledsoe or Monroe.

    The CBA allows a Disabled Player Exception, but not in the full amount of the player's salary. The amount of the exception for Paul George will be no more than the Non-Taxpayer MLE amount, and you can only offer a 1-year contract with the exception.

    lol


    Well it is the East. From them teams I would say now they are around 5th-6th seed. I do see with also Stephenson being gone how they might have problems scoring though.

    No. If I'm right, they would get a disabled player exception if they officially declare him out until the end of next season. It's either 50% of their salary or the MLE, whichever is less, or they can swing a trade for that same amount of money.

    Pacers are only paying PG 6m and not 15m if he doesnt play at all.

    No they arent.

    They are a horrid team without PG. Their best player now is David West.

    Wothless to discuss injury exception. You can't replace Paul George unless their initials are LBJ or KD.

    Pacers will overachieve. Instead of being #1 in the EC, they're now #2.

    they have no skilled ball handlers and a giant hole in perimeter defense.

    I think David west could be available, if someone would take Hill's contract, maybe a 3-way deal.

    Time to blow it up.

    Everything is going on in this thread except for any paging of cyberx... I tried to fight it, but it's hopeless. It is what it is.

    It really ought to just be called "Thread", because it is simply a thread where anything and everything goes now.
