Tom, I thought your idea from your other article about Nesmith wanting a trade was interesting. Mathurin will continue starting (unless Carlisle is a total moron). With Walker and Shep, Nesmith doesn’t really have a defined role. He might feel he can start somewhere else.

i'm stunned at how well the Pacers are playing now after how poorly they looked early on. Mathurins scoring and "dog"ness have made major improvements to the lineup. His T's are worth the nastiness he adds to our otherwise very likeable lineup of nice (seemingly) guys. Suddenly Myles isn't so wimpy anymore. :)

Our backup of D guys (shep/nesmith/walker/nembhard) cover any tracks at the other end. Walkers badly needed big body and D attitude for the front line is quietly important. Pascal looks better than ever and seems to have embraced the tougher profile the Pacers need from him. I do think the time is come(ing) to make a move or two as there's just too many guys that can play. Get another scorer for our defender or two.

Or don't mess with success.....
