Do you think the Pacers will go after a center? How good can they be now with the moves they've made?
The Pacers have now traded for PG Jeff Teague and F Thadeus Young to go along with G Monta Ellis and F Paul George. Do you think they'll try to sign one of the available centers now to complete the team? Their lineup could look something like this:
Jeff Teague
Monta Ellis
Paul George
Thadeus Young
Al Horford/Dwight Howard/Hassan Whiteside
it seems like they are perfect candidates for one of these centers as it's the one thing they are missing now.
If they did where do you think that would place them in the east?

Horford would turn them into the 2nd best team in the East with a chance to beat the Cavs under the right circumstances. I think he would fit very well in that situation.
Howard and Whiteside are crapshoots. The numbers look nice, but I don't know if they make their teams better or worse. I don't think either is mentally strong, and when surrounded by the wrong teammates, could be a disaster. How does Whiteside do when he isn't surrounded by high character guys with championships? How much does he help a team when he can't beat Toronto with decent perimeter play around him?
And we all know Howard's history. 2 disappointing seasons for every 1 great season, at least recently.
Horford would be great though. A point guard he is familiar with, he can play defense down low and doesn't need to be the first or second option to get his points, which is exactly what a team with Paul George and Jeff Teague needs.
