Christmas is coming and Roster full




       No! It's not the Santa Claus' christmas you're waiting to spend your money buying those gift to those you just see once a year. This is Rakeem Christmas adquired via trade by thr Indiana Pacers. The 23 years old 6'9 power forward from Syracuse was selected 33th overall by Sixers, a pick previewsly traded before the draft by the Pacers to the Sixers for Vince Carter. Figures. This time Christmas landed in Indiana for next year second round and cash consideration.

 He played collegiately at Syracuse where in his senior season he exploded having an averaged 17.5 points and 9.1 rebounds per game. In his four-year career with the Orangemen, he played 142 games. 
    Rakeem never had a Christmas movie story-like life. While he lived in the Virgin Islands, his mother died due to renal failure at the age of 28. After his mother died, he remained in St. Croix and was raised there by his grandmother.. When he was 13 years old he moved to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania to live with his aunt, who became his legal guardian.
    "We really liked Rakeem when he came in for pre-draft workouts," said Pacers gm Sheed. "He is a solid player who was a contributor all four years at Syracuse and we look forward to having him on our team."
    
    With this trade Indiana is pretty much complete in every position, Gm Sheed also have to decide on who is going to fill the last spot. Thanasis Antetokounmpo and NIck Johnson will fight for this spot or will be traded. Jeremy Lin and Marcus Thornton could also return but as declared before they might test the free agency. Another player could be signed on free agency but gm Sheed don't have many targets and want to keep this young core intact.

    Rakeem join other 3 rookies this year, Jarell Martin Indiana's first round, Raul Neto 2013 second round pick, Thanasis 
Antetokounmpo traded last year. Sir Dominic Pointer is likely out of Indiana's plan. Nick Johnson and last year free agent adquired Langstone Galloway are going for the second year. The new adquired center Steven Adams will join, Tim Hardaway Jr and Dwayne Dedmon are going for their third year. With this At least half of the team are playing only 3 years in this league. In other hand two importants pieces, Jammal Crawford with 35 and Vince Carter with 38, will give the experience the team needs. 
    Pacers is almost ready for the new season!!!
