How does it feel getting owned?

Ok your right he avg 12 ppg with the pacers last year. He is at his best ever now even tho he avgs 21ppg with new Orleans at 1 pt. you owned me.

This series is over. I cant see the Pacers winning B2B unless Lebron has a nasty tummy ache.

That's because he got more touches and an all-world PG setting him up. :hihi:

Right less usage. A guy is at his all time best and they use him less. Makes sense I guess.

DX needs to knock someone out. UNO was right!

Not saying you (most people do), heck most advanced stats are worthless. At the end of the year advanced stats showed GV played better defense than anyone expected (I think he was like the 4th or 5th best defender on the team), but people were quick to squash that. It was an advanced stat though, just like PER. Advanced stats are great to base things off of, but they are hardly the truth, otherwise Morey ball, and Billy Bean ball would be winning.

Because they have other guys who can score too like Hibbert and George.

D-West chuckin'

Damn Dwest

If the Pacers had one solid get in the lane guard, they'd be dangerous.

A pity.

Way to go Pacers... Crush my dreams

A Spurs-Pacers Finals won't be entertaining at all. Spurs will easily win that series. Pacers have no advantages.

He was at a steady 19ppg in his years with n.o. I guess him avg almost 9rb per game with n.o. Was cause of cp3 too. Only avg 7.2 with Indiana. I guess his ft% being at an all time low has to do with not being with cp3. Guess his fg% being down by almost 10% has to do with not having cp3. Guess his mpg being down has to do with no cp3. Yea it's all cause of no cp3. Your right.

Exactly. His only argument for Dwest are advanced stats. ALL his basic stats which matter most are DOWN. He is not as good as he was when he was with us. Period. Bottom line.

His rebounding rate is only slightly lower than his days at NOLA but he also plays next to guys who can rebound like George and Hibbert. When did Peja ever rebound?

I dont really care I want Dwest to succeed. Pacer-GS is what i hoped for. Both sides let me down.

Where did u find 36mpg at?? Not even close. He avgs 29mpg last year and 33mpg this year with pacers. Nice try tho. Those 2 don't add up to 36mpg.

Basic stats can be misleading. They don't account for things like pace, or how touches a guy gets. Comparing West now to his days in NOLA is comparing apples to oranges because they're totally different situations.

David west is garbage, glad we got rid of him

BTW, how good was DWest in that series against Denver back in 2009? He was garbage that series. And supposedly he was at his peak then.

Spurs better win against the heat or i will lose all hope in all hunbanity
