    Tmac and Rafer are both 5-7 I'd say they're hitting their shots?

    I know, he looks like a completely different player from last year....... like a legit good NBA PG.

    well a little order restored as indy cools off, maybe not coincidentally once chuck entered the game. maybe this is the type of game for him. their D is so bad even he should get easy shots and make them, and then we really need his D.

    and tmac needs to go to some sort of end of quarter clinic to learn how to actually do something valuable with a last possession for once. his upside is a contested 3, the downside is just aimless dribbling and then a pass off to an unsuspecting teammate like we just saw. or he just holds it and does nothing.

    It bet it just irritates him a bit. No point in hiding it.

    How did Troy Murphy keep getting in the lane in the 1st quarter? Is that the reason for the Chuck Wagon substitution? Landry only had 1 foul.

    Ok, against this Pacers team, we match up better when Hayes is playing at PF. Rafer is playing outta his mind. Maybe in this Adleman system, he'll be able to turn Rafer into an All-Star. After all, he turned Brad Miller into an All-Star.

    Asides from the occasional turnover, woo, our offense is looking good.

    Landry was overplaying because he's too eager. Chuckster lays off and times his jumps or his defense. In time, Landry will get it.

    They're still learning how to play in a system with more movement. How do I know that? T-Mac = 3 TO's in the first quarter!

    Oh well, he had two nice dunks anyway!

    even they were hitting, Rocket were not leading. Only when they got others involved, Rockets began to win.

    yeah. his decisions during the last seconds could be better. Hope he doesn't do that in the playoffs.
