Did Jermaine just came in to commit a foul?

For anyone who is able to watch or listen to the game now. How is JO playing?

I don;t expect him to be a superstar right away but is he at least fitting in?

Can the big man lead the Pacers to the playoffs?

J.O. has looked alright so far. 7 Points and a really nice assist to Marquis. He looks a little slow guarding off the dribble though. Alexander Johnson beat him to the basket twice which normally would never happen. I think he looks pretty decent so far though. It'll probably take him 4 or 5 games to get back in game shape so I'm not expecting a whole lot before then.

It seems (from looking at the box score) like he hasn't really been aggressive on Defense. No rebounds as yet for him. I understand he may be a little tentative to really go after the ball as yet.

Honestly, it was nice to see #7 back out there on the court. I think he is coming in with a better attitude and I, as a fan, appreciate that. This team has really grown on me this year and if we make a solid draft pick and make a few moves this summer, I can see this team sneaking up on people next year.

Well JO had a productive first game back he has a few more to go to get himself in shape maybe he can show us a reason to keep him or someone a reason to want him.


Overall great game against a really rotten Miami Heat team. 8)

Always humble, J.O. wanted to make sure the Indiana fans know the appreciation is reciprocated.

He did pretty well, but I will judge him when he isn't going against Kasib Powell and Joel Anthony.
