And hopefully with some good decisions made by TPTB, we can get back to that level on a consistent basis!!

You beat me to this Pacen, and I am proud of this. It's the first time in a long time we've been in the top-ten of something.

I like the direction this team is going, maybe we can get there sooner than we think. Its nice to see someone actually recognize the Pacers though, doesn't happen too often.

This is absolutely something to be proud of!! And that is the reason the last few seasons have been so hard for us to swallow....

Hmm...and I guess Reggie Miller had nothing to do with any of it? And since when is TJ Ford known as a chucker?

We are also kinda of there because of Rick Carlisle. And Ron Artest, even, who is the reason we are at 6th, and the reason we are ONLY at 6th, if you get my drift. And Al Harrington gets some credit, and Jeff Foster gets a bunch of kudos. Sure JO was a big part of it, but he;s far from the only reason we were good.

For what it's worth this guy is already on my ignore list
I didn't see his comment till it was quoted.
I was a "TJ Hater" in a lot of ways when he was with the Raps - but only because Jose left me much more comfortable when he was running the team.
TJ Ford is going to have a Monster year for you guys - and you're going to love him. He doesn't chuck - he'll force it a bit sometimes . . . but I wouldn't be surprised if he makes more than he misses. People in Toronto forget the periods where he was healthy, and his "chucking" was actually him "preforming" and pulling out games when no one else on the team was capable of doing so.
