Pacers Lack the Depth for Chicago/Trade Activity Over for Colts

Pacers Host Bulls at Conseco

The Indiana Pacers, just two short days after losing 102-98 to the Raptors, now turn to defending the home hardwood against the newly revamped Chicago Bulls. Where the Pacers lack in the bench, the Bulls are effective in playing to their strength, which is their reserves. These are two teams, however, who are both going through what you might call a “rebuilding phase”, of which Chicago currently holds the upper hand. Two of the main reasons that the Bulls are more effective are these: 1.) They will benefit from the guys like Larry Hughes and Drew Gooden (which they acquired from a trade with the Cavs). 2.) They also will utilize their ability to keep Joakim Noah and Tyrus Thomas on the floor for as long as possible. With solid minutes from these guys, look for the Bulls to outlast the Pacers in the long run. With the Pacers giving up 55 points coming off the bench against the Raptors, this game will be a test that the Pacers will most likely fail.

With the final strokes of the Dallas Clark contract still drying, the Colts look to be pretty much done for this off-season. Without a pick in the first round of the draft, the Colts will be pretty much set when it comes to major transactions. The main concern this off-season will be keeping the players they already have, not necessarily acquiring new ones. It will be interesting to see what comes of the draft.
