I was going to say the same thing,and he keeps playing like this they'll have to give him some more playing time.

Doubt it. Diogu will put up 20 points in 8 minutes and not play again for 2 weeks.

But Graham can shoot the 3ball,so Obie would like him more than Ike.But it doesnt make since not to play Ike.

Yeah not a bad 1st half. The main thing was that Tinsley was not forcing the issue (and trying to be the number 1 option) and has 8 assists already and and is 1 of 3 in FG. Thats a good effort from him in setting other up.

Lets hope Danny and Mikey D pick up their game, Graham continues his and Rush gets into a groove.

We can win this or completely blow this. I guess the 3rd will tell us a lot.

Wow Graham is officially our most athletic player. Them two dunks were the best i've seen all season for the Pacers except for the Marquis putback.

Anyone who is watching the game, how is Tinsley"s defense tonight?

Is he allowing penetration or playing with energy?

His second dunk was just a typical first. His first was amazing though. Don't forget about Fosters dunks either.

Obie is just a nightmare coach. I miss Carlisle. Carlisle would have been a great coach if he just put in an up-tempo offense. Obie just doesn't play defense at all.

Obies thinking: Hmm, Udrih can shoot the 3 well. Lets leave him wide open till he makes 8 in a row, I want to see if he can do it!

Seems its Rush v Kings.

If it wasn't for him we'd be down 15 to 20 right now

The sad part is we have one of the best coaches at coaching defence in Dick Harter,but Obie's system doesnt call for it.

Shawne isnt having a good game so far either,so I would have thought Graham would have come in before Shawne did.

Agreed, if a player is playing well why not play him more. Graham is yet to see time in the 2nd half

I told ya'll he wouldn't play. Obie picks favorites. Diogu should be one of top options off the bench, Obie doesn't like him, therefore he doesn't play.
