PP has played only 8 minutes AND he's one of 8 players playing tonight. We can win this game.

just one of those nights... C's 10-38 from downtown, Pacers 17-31. Very lucky bounces here and there for the Pacers too. It's a game for the Pacers.

We won't win many games with Grant playing 35 minutes.

I'm sorry but we don't have enough to contend. I'm not sold on White's impact yet. Honestly he is not significantly better than the combined contributions, and depth, provided by Langford, Schroder and JRich.
If our 8-9 man playoff rotation includes White, Theis, PP and Nesmith, we won't get far. Not enough offense.
Still a major eyesore, our 3-point shooting, continues to haunt us.

No we don't early exit. .Need a PF still. Offense? Grant played 34 minutes took 2 shots missed both He slows down the offense standing around outside. White will be fine he's replacing two players gives PP minutes and opened up a roster spot...

Pacers are toast if we are not on the back end of a back to back. I'm not sweating this result.

After today's game in Indy... I suggest we add an official beverage sponsor to the team logo.... just in case we need it when the season's dust/wreckage clears.

In case you didn't catch it on the end of the last game thread, I appreciate you guy's concern and tips about how better to use a cell phone for this website but quite honestly if I spend any more time on this board other than after work and in the early mornings I am going to end up being put in a straight jacket... need to work sometime to get my head straight...

And just why did we chose to NOT go after Haliburton? Sac wanted a good big? most know I was/am a big fan of Haliburton (thus the many convoluted made up trades I had with him ending in Boston). While a Smart/Rob for Haliburton/Holmes could have been a solid trade for both teams, Rob 's new contract made trading him very difficult, meaning Boston would have to take back more salary than they sent out. And we all know the owners mandated to get UNDER that tax line. so it was never going to happen.

WYC was foolish for sticking with Ainge but i can't blame him for not spending more this year. Next year we might have a better shot....
