Let Lance Stephenson Walk Away

“Born Ready” deserves a check, just maybe not from the Pacers. Although, the young guard Stephenson gave the Pacers incredible energy and a much needed scoring output during their run – he may have hurt himself just as much. When teammate Paul George was asked if he wanted Stephenson back as a teammate, he replied with an “I don’t know” that we all took as a polite no.

Stephenson also got under Pacers president Larry Bird’s skin with his Vine famous act of blowing in Lebron James ear. The legend wasted no time immediately telling young Lance “don’t do it again.” However, he recognizes Stephenson’s potential according to ESPN Sources, Bird had nothing but praise when addressing the soon to be free agent. “I think his ceiling is what he wants it to be. I always want him back. You just don’t let talent like that walk away.”

Can they pay him what he wants? Are they even willing to? Letting him walk may just improve team morale and we all know they could use it right now.
