Indiana Pacers 2010 Draft Preview
Basketball Betting Lines
06/21/2010 -
(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Indiana Pacers have a solid group of young players that
are developing nicely but they need a legitimate quarterback to lead them.
The Pacers just don't think T.J. Ford is the answer at the point guard
position and are reportedly shopping the 10th overall pick with the intent of
landing Ty Lawson from Denver or Nick Collison from New Orleans.
Kentucky guard Eric Bledsoe would be a reach that early here so if Indiana is
forced to stay put, getting Danny Granger a long, athletic running mate like
Greg Monroe, the Georgetown lefty with the skills of a much smaller player, or
Kentucky forward Patrick Patterson wouldn't be the worst thing in the world
for the Pacers, a team that also needs a better defense mindset and maturity
on the floor.
Players under contract: G Brandon Rush; G T.J. Ford; G A.J. Price; F-G Mike
Dunleavy; F-G Dahntay Jones; F Danny Granger; F Tyler Hansbrough; F Josh
McRoberts; F-C Solomon Jones; F-C Troy Murphy; C Jeff Foster; C Roy Hibbert.
Free agents: G Earl Watson (unrestricted); G Luther Head (unrestricted)
Draft picks: 1st round (10th overall), 2nd round (40th overall)
