  • Lance Stephenson

    Quite few outlets reporting that Born Ready is headed back to Indiana on a 3 year contract. Not official yet and no terms available so far.

    3 years $12 million with a team option for the third year. Hopefully he goes back to the lance we saw before he left the pacers, as this is probably his last chance to prove himself in the league.

      I agree. He flourished there and should have never left.

        An interesting quote from the AP from last night's Pacer game vs. the Bulls.

        "Lance Stephenson has been with Indiana for only a week and (Paul) George can see what a difference he makes. Stephenson had eight points, six rebounds and three assists in a reserve role. "Lance definitely has given us life, a new excitement to this team," George said. "He's helped take a lot of the burden off me.""

        Indiana "gets" Born Ready, for some reason. Can't change the past, but it does makes one wonder what would BR's career would have been like if he'd hadn't left Indy in the first place.

          Lance loooking like Lance off the bench for the Pacers last night vs. SK and the Nets. 16 pts and 31% FG. SK did not make it off the bench last night.

            Lance going at Lebron last night is worthy of a link this morning. Lance being Lance. Dude's crazy.

              Pacer s decided yesterday not to pick up his option for next year. This doesn't mean they won't resign him they just didn't want to pay him the salary he had coming for next year. 4.1M I believe ?

              The Pacers fanbase is giving the franchise incredible levels of grief over this.

                  No more ear-blowing? I sure hope not.

                    Let's see here. Lance is coming in probably as a back up to Lonzo Ball. It would be hilarious if he started over Lonzo just to see Lavar Ball's head explode.

                      Listening to Golic & Wingo this morning, chances are Lonzo could be the odd man out.... Not a great shooter, and if they use Lonzo as a package deal to get Leonard, it's a win for the Lakers...

                        The Lakers signed Rajon Rondo; now they have two PGs (Ball and him) that don't shoot well, which is not the formula for success with LeBron. LJ needs good shooters around him so he can drive, which in turn allows him room to shoot; he can't be the only shooter on the team..

                        I do think Ball will be the odd man out somehow. Whatever his strengths, I don't think Magic Johnson will want Lavar around screwing with LeBron.

                          Can't imagine they would sign and trade Lance but that's a possibility too. If they trade Ball to the Spurs it's going to be a debacle because there is absolutely no way Popovich is going to put up with LaVar.

                            Lance has signed his contract with the Lakers and it's come out that LeBron was the one who recruited him there.

                              This article goes back a few days but it's a pretty good profile on Lance's summer in Indy before he left for LA.
