Indiana Pacers 2015/16

The 2015/16 season just started and Indiana Pacers assembled their 15 men roster for this year. Trades could be made throughout the year be this the INDIANA PACERS 2015/16

CENTERS

STEVEN ADAMS

Natural from New Zealand Steven is the youngest of 18 children his dad had. Steven is known by his incredible strength and defensive game. We hope for his blocks numbers to increase this year

TRISTAN THOMPSON

More a power forward than a center Tristan is a rebound machine. Doesn`t matter he is only 6`9, Thompson can fight against any center in the league creating new opportunities with his offensive rebounds

' POWER FORWARDS

BLAKE GRIFFIN

Blake is coming for his sixth season. NLL Historic Indiana`s leader in points and rebounds Blake passed Jermaine O`neal last year. Still yet to surpass the number of games and it might happen in two weeks. More than history Blake is the cornerstone of this team and will lead Indiana to another successful season

BRANDON BASS

Acquired in free agency this off season Brandon will be the direct backup for Blake Griffin. His notable strength will be able to box out inside the paint. Tough guy as he is many other bigs will fell fatigued on challenge this guy.

JARELL MARTIN

Pacers first round pick is yet to be cleared from medical department. His broken foot can be a trouble for his career ? Martin shown in college a great athleticism and good mid range jumper. He is unlike to receive big minutes when return but he will be a stash for a future backup for Blake

RAKEEM CHRISTMAS

Drafted by Sixers and traded early in season to Indiana. Rakeem is expending good times in DLeague averaging 20 plus points per game. He is another promise for the future of the team.

SMALL FORWARDS

TIM HARDAWAY JR

Tim Hardaway is a offensive minded shooting guard playing small forward. Despite the acquirement of PJ Tucker, a true small forward, coach Vogel insist on playing Tim in starting lineup. Ala Dorell Wright type Tim is a major threat from outside but still lack on defense end

PJ TUCKER

Tucker is a bulldog. He plays good defense and can rebound like a power forward. He has a good shooting but it isn`t a constant. Tucker can conquest a place in the starting five if his hard work gives results.

VINCE CARTER

Vince came from Sixers for a second round pick (Rakeem Christmas). Vince Carter is the reason why gm Sheed loves basketball. In early days the only way he could watch NBA was downloading a .mov file of courtside countdown plays of the week on NBA.com. Sheed quickly fell in love for Vince dunks in 2000s. Carter is 37 years old now but still can score. He will probably fight for 6^th man trophy this year.

LUKE BABBITT

Luke is playing his third season with Indiana. He is capable shooter and can scorer big numbers in some nights. Despite gm Sheed likes him, he was for weeks on the block but looks like the league doesn`t respect his potential. He was even snubbed by a gm during a negotiation. Which obviously broke the negotiation talks.

SHOOTING GUARDS

JAMAL CRAWFORD

JCross is 35 years old but he is a go-to guy for Indiana Pacers. Jammal will score double digits every single game and he is a closer in the last quarter. Jammal is capable to beat anyone with a crossover and disrupt the defense.

LANGSTON GALLOWAY

Galloway was signed last year for no reason by gm Sheed and end up taking place of backup loved point guard Jeremy Lin. He has the best 3 point shoot of this team and is a valuable piece of this team. On the block for weeks Sheed will only trade this young man for the right offer.

POINT GUARDS

GORAN DRAGIC

The Slovenian point guard lost the company of his brother off season but he still committed with Indiana for at least 4 years. Dragic is a commander on the floor and his stats number don`t reflate the real impact he gives on the floor

TONEY DOUGLAS

Quick and smart. Douglas took the place of Galloway as a backup point guard. His ability to intercept passes and hustle will help Indiana in close games

RAUL NETO

Raul is a true point. His tendencies are the best between other two Dragic backups. On his day to day improvement the Brazilian will probably be the second point guard of this team
