Murphy just seems to kill us every game he plays anymore.

Mike gets hot, then gets no touches for 3 plays...

I know we're supposed to play within the offense, but Obie has to call specific plays for him when he gets hot... or any player for that matter!

I love Granger's aggressiveness lately, it sucks that he starts being aggressive while slumping though.

Thats one of my main reasons I don't think Obie is a good coach for us. Someone will play great, then not touch the ball for 8 possessions.

Not too bad of a quarter...especially without the big guns.

Does anyone think David Harrison will play in the NBA after this season?

Well we gave up a chance at a good coach the year after LB stepped down,but we took Isiah and let Byron Scott go to NJ.

I think so, you can't ignore his size.

I also disagree with your Murphy statement. I think he has played well for us lately.

David just plays so lazy at times,so maybe. And maybe your right about Murphy,maybe I just expect to much out of him.

After this game we won't see him again for the rest of the year. Obie has a philosophy about this sort of thing. "Diogu just scored 10 points with 3 rebounds in 5 minutes. I won't play him again the rest of the year, that'll show him what happens when you don't let Tinsley shoot it every play."

So I think this is the last we will see of Williams. :-\

Obie said on his radio show,every team he has coached has made moves right before the trade deadline,so anyone think it'll happen again,or will the injuries stop us from making a move?

The fact that Dunleavy is apparently the only "untouchable" player we have makes me think Granger may get traded. I will be so pissed if we trade Granger. It would be the worst thing I've seen I've been a Pacer fan(since I was like 7 in '95). Yes that includes the brawl, the refs screwing us over, just everything. That would be the worst hands down.

Foster's stock is skyrocketing in this game. If Western Conference teams see what Foster is doing against Yao they are going to jump all over him.
