Myles Turner's ceiling is high for Pacers, can he reach it?

Myles Turner showed how high his ceiling was last season. Now Pacers fans and coaches hope he can deliver on all his promise.

One thing has stayed ingrained in my head throughout this off-season: Myles Turner swatting shot after shot in the Toronto series. He blocked so many shots during those games he now holds the record for most blocks by a Pacers' rookie during a playoff series.

Plays like the one during Game 6 where he’s isolated against DeMar DeRozan. He sags off, smartly daring DeRozan to shoot. DeRozan drives right into Turner’s chest and forces up a layup.
