Call him a glue guy, call him underrated, call him a weak link (oh you rascals on Twitter) if you don’t like him. You can call Thaddeus Young whatever you want but it doesn’t change the fact that the Indiana Pacers are a better team with him on the floor.
Indiana outscored opponents by 344 points in his time on the floor over the past three seasons, which is a simple enough way of saying the Pacers win when Thad is deflecting passes, grabbing steals, and getting buckets and rebounds for Indiana.
