IU Scott

I have a feeling the Pacers will make their normal hire and that would be a safe pick like Mike Brown.  Brown was an assistan under Rick Carlisle with Pacers.

Been a good fit for the Pacers and now there is not really anyone out there that blows me away.  I might take a chance on Chauncy Billups and see how he does.

There is a chicken place in Enochsburg, Indiana that has the best fried chicken I have ever eaten. Not sure if it is still open as it has about 5 years since I feasted there.

Been to that one when I was a kid and Oldenburg had a good chicken place as well.

Though I only been there once.....I love the fact that they are closed on Sundays.

Growing up in Gary, Indiana.... most businesses were closed on Sunday.  What ever happened to that ?

KFC use to be so good but whatever they did to the recipe a few years ago I don't care for it.  Chick Fil A is my favorite.

Geez, then they call Jokic for his 4th foul 40 seconds into the 3rd quarter. 

Sounds like typical NBA to me

Look like Brown and Smart got into an argument that a lot of people heard in the locker room.  Also saw Hayward might be back for game 3.

I played a round while on vacation in Michigan this summer.  Shot a 45 for 18 holes.  And, a damn tough miniature golf course it was.  

Sounds tough.  When I was a kid and we wnet to Hilton Head and they had a great minature golf coarse.  they actually had a par 5 on that course.  It was back in a jungle and it was really tough coarse.

He went 180 with a wedge holy cow 

I have not played golf for 5 years but when I played it would take me a bout 2 drives to get to 380 yards.  When I was playing some I could usually hit my drive straight but was way behind my friends who could hit it far but not as accurate.

Bryson Dechambeau hit driver wedge for an eagle on a 566 yard par 5. Unbelievable 

380 yard drive

Just saw an article that Reggie Miller totally ripped on PG on the Dan Patrick show

People forget about the Defenses not the Steelers, Cowboys and the Vikings.  How about Deacon Jones and Merlin Olsen of the Rams or the Eagles of the 90's.

You responded to me saying Pacers fans are hard on PG and are biased in their assessments of him by giving me reasons they act that way. 

All fair, people can act how they want, I just don't understand why anyone would intentionally be biased about anything. I want my view of reality to be as close to reality as possible, even about something as trivial as sports. 

So you have never came on here after an IU loss and ripped the players or coaches.  People come here after losses and vent frustration and probably are not bring fully unbias.

Scott, I think you got selective memory going on.  The rules favor the offense, and in particular the passing aspect.

I know they do but you still don't see offenses throwing the ball down field over 20 yards that often.

Sure, so that means you should be unbiased about his ability as a player?

Where was I unbiase about his ability because he has usually came up short in big moments.  He is usually a gifted offensive player but seems to wilt under pressure.  Also if I want to have a bias about a player who I don't like that is up to me.

Why? I've never understood why people should intentionally be unbiased towards anything. 

Because he liked to the front office and told them he wanted to stay but a week later he demands a trade.  Also he cried about the Pacers wanting him to change his position and wouldn't do it.

He’s unbelievable. I think they said the first 15+ rebound triple double through 3 quarters in NBA history. 

The Clippers are just crumbling under the pressure. Missing wide open 3’s, Lou Williams has missed two point blank layups during this stretch. Both Kawhi and PG are shooting terrible.  

Love seeing teams like the Nuggets do well because it gives other small market teams a blue print to be successful.  They built mainly through the draft and some low profile free agents.  They play as a team and don't seem to have any big ego stars.

Love seeing OF falter.in a big game next that is his ammo.  I think he and Leonard was 10-38 and PG's shots in the fourth was not even close.

I think the best point guard in the league is a 7'0 center

Looks like the ratings for both Monday night games last night really tanked.  The first game ratings are down 21 percent from last year.  The second game was down 38 percent from last year.

Celtics blew that game in regulation. They were up 5ish with a minute plus and Tatum and Kemba (who was bad again offensively) went into hero ball the last 3-4 possessions. Just stand around and dribble then take a terrible shot. Completely blew the game.

On the last possession of regulation, I understand Tatum got a good look, but it's a tied game and you have a guy in the game that hadn't played until that last possession and you're in the bonus, and you take a step back 30fter. Just drive on that guy and 50/50 you'll get a foul called and win it at the line. Just terrible. 

Edit: I think we'll find that Kemba is going to have knee surgery at the end of the year, but right now the Celtics don't have a shot if he gets outplayed by Dragic this badly. 

Totally agree with you and I think the possession after Herro  cut it to 2 was the possession that lost you the game. Walker dribble the ball the whole possession and had to take contested shot that was blocked for a shot clock violation

When did it stop being a travel when you catch the ball go to the floor and get back up with the ball.

Reds up 4-1 in the top of the 9th but Garrett had walked two and has two outs
