	The Pacers have picked up picked up the 08-09 contract option on SF Stephen Graham. He didn't play much this year, but he did score 16 points in a road win in Toronto when Granger was suspended. http://www.nba.com/pacers/news/graham_option_080512.html Hopefully, this means the end of Shawne Williams, but I doubt it.

	graham played pretty well when given the opportunity. also, prior to this season, he was a beast for the NBA-DL Sioux Falls Skyforce (my hometown). i assume that picking up his option means that at least one of our current SG/SF's will be traded this offseason, because otherwise this move doesn't make much sense.

	All I know is that they need to trade O'neal or not pick up the option(dont remeber if it was a team or player option), either way, get rid of him and save some cap space and get a PF that can play in that system. Oneal is suited for a half-court offense, not the up and down style that they now play. Just my thoughts.

	Unfortunately, JO has the option to opt out. Most everyone on here wants him to go. Indiana at the very least needs to get a high pick, which would include taking on a bad salary or a solid role player.

	if JO doesn't opt out this offseason, he only has next season left on his contract. by trading him, we would likely have to take on bad contracts that will last longer than just next season, thereby tying our hands for a longer period of time.
