Gotta love that. I love the way Mike plays the game. He seems like a true pro on and off the court as well. It is too bad other players can't follow the examples set by Dunleavy and Granger.

If we can get the D&D boys up into the 20s each, that would be really nice. I said at the beginning of the season that they kinda remind me of Reggie & Rose that year they both had like 19ppg I think.

Too bad Dun-Dun and Jalen couldn't have played together, we would have had Soft Irish Dunleavy and Wild Irish Rose.
That combo would have gotten everybody's Irish up.

Dunleavy has been awesome this year whether it's the Irish skin or not...

i had stated earlier this year in the trade forum that the pacers should run their offense through granger and mike. nearly got laughed off the site. i gotta tell you though, it has been nice seeing him drop 30+ on occasion. i get a bit of a smile when i see it and think of the response i got for my statement.

You haven't had the full realgm experience if you haven't been laughed at on the trade forum.
In fairness, there is probably not much reason these days for fans of other teams to keep close tabs on the Pacers. I'd bet that Dunleavy's very good season is very much under the radar for a lot of people.

I hear ya. I personally get a kick out of GS fans on another board who have nothing but negative things to say about Mike as if he's the anti-Christ. To see him excel here in Indy is awesome.

Keep in mind that the GS fans get the same kind of kick out of our criticism of Jackson.
Both guys have worked out nicely for their new teams. That should make us all relatively happy.

I personally enjoy watching Stack Jack play. It seems like a lot of people just don't get the fact that some things aren't meant to be and it takes something happening to push a player to become better. Everything that happened here/in GS for each Jackson and Dunleavy, I'm sure has pushed them to want to prove the detractors wrong.

Yeah, both players have really blossomed. Although, Jackson used to always crush us when we played the Pacers. He'd shut down Jason and light us up, both. One of the first things I though after I heard about the trade was "well at least we won't have to face Stephen Jackson anymore".
