Tyler wouldn't even be in the game.

Ain't that the truth.

And we all know who would be in. Here's a hint, his name rhymes with Shmames Shmosey.

Whoa, did Andre Miller just have a period? I hope that's not a flagrant though like Denari and Quinn are talking about. A tech sure, but not a flagrant. It was something similar-ish to that that cost Miller his consecutive games streak a couple months ago when he did that to another player (either Blake Griffin or Luis Scola as I remember)

He elbowed Jeff in the mouth. I thought it was that.

Yeah! 3 straight wins!

Who cares if two of them were Cleveland and Toronto. If nothing else, it's a confidence thing also.

Give Bo Man season tickets!

I'm also loving this balanced offensive attack under Vogel. Four guys in double-figures and the other 5 guys who played all had 6 or more. Also loved the play of Tyler and George. Neither had good shooting nights but got to the line. Hansbrough 12 times and George 6.

Obviously, I'm still not convinced Vogel is in the driver's seat in terms of getting the permanent job next year, but I hope he at least stays on staff (if he wants) because the players seem to respond to him.

I wonder what JOB is thinking this week.

Probably something still idiotic like, "pfft...they would've won by 20 if Solomon Jones finished out the game."

ill tell ya this much...the excitement i felt for this team...that i lost in dec-jan...is def back running through my body...it feels like the team cares again, are giving their all, and are performing at a top level...i think we will get into the playoffs and give the 2 seed (bcuz i think we can get that 7 spot) a helluva run for their money

^^^ Agreed. I have League Pass, so I'm not able to watch the post-game stuff on FSI, but from what I heard, there have been a lot of quotes from Pacers players loving the change. According to a friend who was watching back in IND, Roy said something like "a breath of fresh air" tonight.

who would you have put in at that point given that Roy was in foul trouble so Jeff or Josh had to play center and Aldridge was killing Ty? going with Posey caused Portland to go smaller and we got through a rough spot in the game. that was not O'B playing small ball. that was FV making the best of a bad situation. Posey being the veteran he is made it work.

chube · Post #61 » by **chube** » Sat Feb 5, 2011 3:14 am

I was wondering about that too, but wasn't too worried about it. I got home right as Posey checked out and got a little curious as to why he was in since he didn't get any run against Toronto or Cleveland. But when I saw that he was only in for a couple minutes, that made more sense.

personally...i would have put danny at the 4..who is bigger and stronger and a better player than posey with jeff at center and paul at the 3....if i was coach, only way posey would get in would be at an absolute necessity

What? Are you insinuating that Aldridge was somehow scoring on Tyler? If so.. Aldridge was not " killing " Tyler by any means. He didnt score a point against him until a late foul that happened shortly before Tyler fouled him out of the game.

Makes me think some people dont even watch the game.

Aldridge was abusing McRoberts early. It stopped once they brought in Hansbrough.

Post #65 » by **Miller4ever** » Sat Feb 5, 2011 4:50 pm

As shaky as the stat is when it's within 5 points, every starter was in positive double-digits for plus/minus except McBob, who was all by himself -4. Hansbrough was +4.
