What exactly is there to blow up? The Pacers roster is absolute dog **** outside of George. David West is the only player left worth a damn.
totally stupid, every world sport has players playing for their national teams, it was a freak accident
I hope George recovers 100%. Should Lance Stephenson have stayed in Indiana in retrospect and been the #1 option?
Have you seen what some pro's eat? Odom for instance eats so much refined sugar it probably leeches more calcium from his bones than he takes in. Do not assume they eat clean all the time or at all. All pro players should be regularly scanned for undiagnosed fractures if they are not already. I expect to see PG back and thriving in 2015, best of luck but don't think the muscle memory of the basket base because 0.06 closer was the cause.
What's the possibility that he plays after this? A pin in your leg sounds scary. Feel so bad b/c PG is one of the very few players in the entire league who plays defense as hard as he plays offense.
Pacers are screwed, No really, they are. THey had major trouble scoring last year. and Not only is Lance gone but PG is as well...damn.
They bombed already in the 2nd half of season... perfect opportunity for them to tank and get a top 5 pick.

Prayers go out to Paul George first and foremost. I've always been high on him. He is like a more offensive Pippen. I wish him a speedy and safe recovery But it will be interesting to see what the Pacers do next. Next season should be a throwaway. I think West's contract ends this summer or next. If we could get him, I would be very happy.
No ancillary damage eh? This is truly great news for PG considering. He'll be bouncing around in no time if he rehabs right.
A terrible injury for Paul George and the Pacers, but he'll work back to 100% next year and the Pacers might be able to gain a lottery pick.
Pacers are going to be horrible next season...I hope & pray that Paul George rehabs & gets back to where he was. In the meantime we should take advantage of the Pacers hard luck & get David West...
How often is regular enough for you? Fractures only show up well on X-rays and no doc will recommend such a consistent dose of radiation exposure unnecessarily. Also, I'm sorry but refined sugar is not going to "leech" enough calcium in young healthy male athlete to result in a friggen fracture.
That being said, David west would be so perfect for our team right now. I wouldn't trade the Pels pick for him though. Lin TPE maybe? Bima?
Lamar Odom is a HORRIBLE example to use. If you said Wade or CP3 I'd understand. I do get what you mean about what they eat. They get good breakfasts at team practice facilities and good pre-game meals at home and on the road but some players still order fast food to be delivered to them in the locker room before games.
