Best way to tank: Try to win games

    Here we go, the last quarter of the season is coming up and Pacers fans are bore as hell. Pacers were able to get some good wins in last few weeks against the champs Lakers and the team that eliminated them last season Philadelphia 76ers. But what is most of the fans doesn't understand is why Indiana is able to beat these good teams and lose against bad teams like Memphis, Raptors and Detroit. Teams that supposing tanking are beating us.
    Week 15 we have 4 games, 3 of them against division rivals, Chicago Bulls and Cleveland Cavaliers. The Bulls turned the coin to their side this season and beat us in the first match, without Blake Griffin. Can we even the odds with Blake back and start a run to the last spot in the playoffs? The Cavs are our favorite foes. We got them early in the season with some Jeff Green great plays against Lebron. Right now without Green we will have to deal with these guys. The last game will be against the Magic, a team we were able to beat twice and lose once. Can we win this series at least 3-1 or we will let them even it.

    Another point about this week is that the trade deadline will be this wednesday 5:30 pm. Our friend Laddas will sad after this time. On the Pacers side nothing might to be moved. Gm Sheed waved away the Blake Griffin trade rumors and Blake will stay with the team. The only piece on the block is the young point guard Raul Neto which is spending his second year with the team. He lost his space and with the team point guard crowded he might find his way out.
    Cory Joseph could be on his way out too but is gm Sheed is not sure about trade him anyway. However the team needs him to have at least some salary under contract.
    So this is what we have for now. Pretty much nothing, no wins no trades no nothing until the Draft. What are Pacers' plan to the Draft? We will see it in the next article.
