Quote from Pacers.com: Pick your storyline: East vs. West, offense vs. defense, present vs. future. When the Indiana Pacers face the Lakers in Los Angeles on Sunday, all will apply. None, ultimately, will matter. It¡¦s one game, in late November, between the teams with the two best records in the NBA. Today we have a glimpse on the 2 powerhouses from East and West, sad but true, I believe these 2 teams will meet again in Finals (no Rockets vs Pacers yet). Do you agree?
Lakers leads 21-17 after 1st quarter. Shaq has already 3 fouls and no rebounds! Shaq is not as dominating as before!
Why does Shaq have to dominate when he knows how to share the ball. Maybe Steve should take notes . 8-13, 23 points, 4 blocks, but only 5 rebounds. Still, Jermaine O'neal is the only Pacer with more boards than Shaq with 6. Malone has 15 rebounds. Does this guy ever age? The Lakers are simply dominating. I'm marking January 16 on my calender...Lakers@Sacramento! Should be a hell of a game.
The Lakers trashed the Pacers. Man, they are scary. Let's just pray that Shaq's big toe will act up again; that Malone's age will suddenly catch up on him, that Kobe will get distracted by his trial; and that Payton will . . . uh . . . I don't know.
