Oladipo with the kill shot. Pacers win Game 1

That trade was a lopsided win for the Pacers. VO has blossomed into a superstar while PG will bolt OKC after this season.

Having said that, this series is far from over.

He's definitely a very unique hall of famer. To just call green a hall of famer is a little misleading because he plays a very specific role on a championship team. But no doubt he will make the hall of fame because of his resume that albeit are dependent on his co stars. Is he an individual hall of fame player? No. But he will make the hall of fame due to his role in a championship dynasty.

Presti should be recognized for his role in building the Rockets AND the Pacers. Great job.

Green 3 all stars, 2 ships, DPOY, 3 all nba first team defense, NABC player of the year, 1 gold medal.

He's going to get probably a couple more all stars, another gold medal, and about 2-3 more championships before his resume is even finished. It's NOT close.

ROFL I swear Green is the most overrated player in the league. He's a very good role player and that's it. Of all the role players in the league, he's in the best and easiest situation ever. If he was a first or even second option on a team, it would be one of the worst teams in the league.

Dipo and Turner compliment each other extremely well. Couple that with career performances from Bogdanovic and Collison and tremendous role players like Thad Young, Cory Joseph and yes, even Lance Stevenson, plus great coaching from Nate McMillan, and you have a very dangerous team.

They play very hard and very unselfishly within their roles. I’ve watched them all season and the improvement has been amazing.

I still can't stand stevenson, but the others are great.

Woooooo! Almost Playoff Harden time! Half the free throws, twice the turnovers!

Oladipo looked like a young D Wade today.

Lance is a modern day Laimbeer. Bad Lance does really stupid, dirty stuff and kills his team, but good Lance plays with heart, hustle and brute strength. It’s just a matter of which Lance is present at any given time.

I still think Cleveland wins the series in 6 or 7. They’re not gonna miss that many open threes often.

I like the T-wolves players but they aren’t going to win a game in this series.

Paul has been nothing but a liability so far. Shocking!!!

If he was on any other team this would not even be a discussion. That in itself should make this a no brainer.

Obviously. And yet still one of the best defenders in the league and a future HOFer.

He had some shots today that looked like "see, look, I used to be a good player" kind of shots.

One of the best defenders in the league doesn't make you a hof.

It makes you a good role player.
