Pacers Let Emotions Get in the Way of Paul George Trade

Sometimes life give you lemons, as the old addage goes, it is best to attempt to turn those lemons in lemonade, not haterade or Spite, an imitation citrus soda and the petty knock off of Sprite (that I just made up) as the Pacers have done with the Paul George situation. I get where Indiana [...]
