Re: Official Indiana Pacers Thread
I've been a Cavs fan since the late 80's, up until Game 3 of last years ECF. I can probably find the post where I quit if I look hard enough, haha. Watching the team quit, and not put forth an effort, I quit caring. Game 5 took the cake though. I'm still watching them, but was wanting a "fresh start". It's fun seeing a new team, and seeing what steps a young team can take.
My wife is from Indy, so she has a connection to the area. I told her I couldn't be a Pacer fan, but I started up an Association in 2k11, and starting getting to know the team and the players, and really like the way that they're set up. Some really nice youth, and some established guys in the league. I'm still not a Dunleavy fan, but I guess he'll suffice.
TJ Ford pulled it through last night. That fake pass layup in the final 2 minutes was nice. I like Ford, and what he brings to this team. He's the guy that I think can really keep this team focused and get that go ahead bucket that they need.
Granger played a great game last night, other than not using his head and committing the 6th foul. If he wants to take the next step, he has to be smarter than that.
Hibbert didn't have that dominant presence last night, but he still defended well. I'm gonna hate it when I don't have the Free Pass BB, and can't watch the team. I'll have to stream it online I guess.
Nice win though.
