We have the best arena in the NBA and there's nobody there.

I'm embarrassed to be a Pacers fan right now

I think Granger may be the best kind of player to guard Melo, just because his length can bother him.

I think that Granger's heel bruise makes him unable to do so.

Looks like our players didn't show up either. This is pretty humiliating so far.
Hey at least it can only get better right :)

Murphy out for the rest of the game. Love how things are going.

Early days still but looks like our Defense is as poor as last year (or even worse)

The absence of Foster and Hansbrough and Jarrett JAck is hurting us more than originally thought.

I miss Jack too. The offense just isn't running as fluently as lady year. Jack had a lot to do with that it seems

Yeah, this is ugly. It's weird that only 3 teams are winless this early in the season. The good news is that the Colts and Pacers combined are soon to be 7-3!

Jack was important, but it seemed like he was getting more money than he deserved, so it was a tough call. Who ever thought there'd be a Pacer to foul out in 13 minutes and it wouldn't be Hibbert? Good job, TJ.

Oh yeah, more good news, which obviously means Conan talk. This time others will actually care! Larry Bird will be on Conan on Wednesday night! Him and Magic are going to talk about the new book I guess.

Anybody know when college basketball starts? Wonder what John Wall would look like in a Pacers uniform

We were missing Murphy, Foster, Dunleavy, Hansbrough, and life is just not fun.

It is weird that all of our white (or European-American) players are hurt but McBob. Hopefully we can turn this thing around. But 3-22 from 3?! That is just terrrrible. It took Rush a little while to get going last year. I thought it was just him being a rookie. It's happening again, hopefully he can turn it around.

Side-note: Did any1 watch the 30 and 30 Without Bias tonight? I Tivod it and am watching it. It's pretty good, although I am BIASED being a Maryland fan.

Pretty much sums up the game, and the season, so far.
Feel the rhythm! Feel the rhyme! Get on up, it's bobsled time!

How great would that be to win a championship AND get the #2 overall pick?!

I am trying to think of a plan that would get the Jazz to give us the Knicks pick for the draft in exchange for any players they want from the Pacers, minus Granger and protecting our draft pick for next year a little bit. So far it isn't going too well.

Haha, and if we don't turn around our form soon looks like the whole season may be full of these images
