A long read:
David West is getting old. No, I’m not just saying that because we saw him walking with a cane last week, but he’s 34 and he knows this is the beginning of the end. He’s the 35th oldest player in the NBA, and knows he’s on a team that isn’t going to compete this year for the title. Perhaps what might be most frustrating for West is the fact that this year is a wash, but Paul George should be back and near 100% by the 2015-16 season. Unless he’s getting traded to a true contender, staying in Indiana still pairs him with a pair of All-Star players in PG and Hibbert. But he’ll be 36 then, and has a player option in that 2015-16 season.

David West Preview for 2014-2015 Season
"He's a little bit ball-dominant, he needs to have the ball in his hands, and he's not a good shooter." Ball-dominant … isn't that a nice way of calling someone a ball hog? Where is my Jay Bilas Thesaurus?

He would be a hell of a playoff pickup for someone. And it may happen if the Pacers can't contend this year.

Not gonna happen. West is the only reason to show up at Banker's Life this season. Pacers will keep him and try to return to relavence next year. NBA East is already a done deal, either Bulls or Cavs.
