Is there anyone on ISH who approves of the Pacers choosing Miles Plumlee?
He blocked .9 shots per game and scored 6.6 points per game despite being a 7-footer that can jump higher than anyone.
If they wanted athleticism, why didn't they pick Moultrie who at least knows how to play basketball?
[B]Is there anyone on ISH that honestly likes the Pacers' pick of Plumlee?[/B]
My face when the Pacers chose Plumlee:

The most underrated bad move of the draft.

Never heard it put that way before :oldlol: .
Re: Is there anyone on ISH who approves of the Pacers choosing Miles Plumlee?
It was kinda head scratching but at #26 it really doesn't matter.
I'm guessing they are looking for a tough big that will go hard/goon for 10-15 minutes(Hansbrough?) and he'll probably be a better contributer to the team than someone else who will probably be buried on the bench.

Pacers drafted a white guy.
The world is an oblate spheroid. Water is wet. Grant Hill likes dudes.

Larry Bird was on a hot streak and he ended it with a major dud.
Re: Is there anyone on ISH who approves of the Pacers choosing Miles Plumlee?
I wouldn't have approved of anyone taking him even as an undrafted FA. Dude is not a good player.
Re: Is there anyone on ISH who approves of the Pacers choosing Miles Plumlee?
easily the biggest :facepalm of the draft, ecspecially with who was stil left on the board ...
Re: Is there anyone on ISH who approves of the Pacers choosing Miles Plumlee?
playing devil's advocate, why not take a chance on a huge, athletic center? it was the late first round, not like there was a ton of talent left on the board. he might develop into a good rebounder who can bang with dudes down low

Future Hall of Famer for sure.

pretty much this. If they can get a 10-15 solid minutes a night from him where he's hustling, banging down low, rebounding, etc, than it's a good pick.
Unless you get lucky and draft a gem most of those guys around that pick aren't going to be anything special. No sleep will be lost.
