Kind of odd that the pacers traded a swingman to move up, then draft a swingman.

I mean, Diddle certainly has potential to be better than Jackson, but I'm not sure Snow is a starter.

Wow, this really is shocking, because the Pacers really need a PG. I guess they plan to get one with the MLE.

I'm very happy about this. I thought I was going to have to pick between Diddle and Mercer. Now I don't.

Sure am. A year behind Cassell is exactly what he needs.

Snow won´t start for me Very Happy
and i moved up to get a chance at either a C or a SG because Reggie retired. So maybe Diddle can fill in for him. We will see after FA and TC.

i am not sure what you smell Laughing
yea both are able to handle the pg duties.
i think diddle will be the best shooter and one of the best defenders out of this class. i was undecided between him and ellis. but i had to go for the bigger need and that were clearly shooting.
Hope i did a good job as a newbie  Laughing  
Can´t wait till FA starts Very Happy

Well remember...  The Pacers can still sign Tinsley to whateever contract he wants.   Looks like they may make a big push to keep him...
