1. The Pacers crowd was virtually nonexistent.

I think Miami Heat fans are great ......
Traffic is terrible outside the arena that one reason were always late ...

But Sunday at 3:30 were ready to rock ..
Good luck .....

Flopping or no flopping this team is on a mission ..
This Miami Heat has yet to lose a home game vs Eastern Conf. team since the big 3

If a team offers Hibbert a full max contract, how long would it take for the Pacers to match? Do they just do it immediately, do they wait the 3 days or do they let him walk for that much?

Well, we would probably just match it immediately, as either way, it would eliminate our cap space.

However, I'm sure that he understands that Indy would match any and everything he's offered elsewhere, and that he would like to play on a team with the best players possible, and as such, would wait to sign any offers until Indy consumed their cap space as efficiently as possible.

He's going to get paid, and it's going to be in Indiana. Now, unless a crazy S&T offer comes along, like to OKC in a deal for Harden and Perkins (obviously with other pieces involved), he's going to be in Indiana at any price.

How does Roy walk and move in everyday off the court life? Does he move about like an quick energetic young men or labor around like an tired old man?

From a man who can't do a single push up in front of a group of young women, Roy has come a long way. Mostly by working really hard at his physical conditioning. The BIG BIG BIG test will come after he received his big pay check, will ROy continue to work as hard?

^^ Roy's been showing an excellent level of professionalism despite his youth. Just to have Tim Duncan backing him up is a clear sign of Roy's character.
