Do a search. (This thread). If that doesn't find it....scroll back around tab 20ish and look about a month into the season.

It happened. I was like.....WTH? And now I have you insinuating I made it up?

Sorry, you have a lot of bandwagoners. Gratz...it happens when you get good.

Talk <> reality.

With a 7-game series there is little room for parity, the best team almost always wins.

Basketball, in and of itself does not lend itself to parity.

I mean, they play both ways and run 40% of their offense through their best player.

Frankly, complaining about parity in the NBA is one step short of complaining that boxing lacks parity.

It's a shame that this Suns team may not make the playoffs. While a team like the Hawks with a losing record will be in the playoffs

So we can say the Melo trade offically didnt pan out?

Do we still have Indy fans predicting a 70-win season?

Oh, that's you.

Looks like the Pacers will win this game over OKC and regain the first seed in the east

Slow to the party here. Has Steve Javie been part of the ABC Broadcast Team? Since I missed this detail until today, in your opinion has Javie contributed to a better broadcast and how?


Thanks in advance for any responses.

Sounds like some good basketball to end the season.

Orlando is a tough team to beat and has a lot of young talent. I don't put my trust in Pacers making it easy.

The Washington-Miami game will be a great one. Both teams have something to play for. The Wizards are trying to fight off the Bobcats from getting the 6th seed and Miami of course is still fighting for the #1 seed.

And if the Pacers beat the Magic the Heat can rest their starters the last 2 games
