Update:*Pacers coach Rick Carlisle said Jackson will come off the bench behind Reggie Miller, the Indianapolis Star reports.


Recommendation:*Jackson had earlier indicated a willingness to come off the bench, but he could find significant minutes before the season is out

Weird that they still want Reggie to start. I thought Reggie had said he doesn't mind come off the bench.

I hope everything works out there for Stephen.

he has learned his lesson
I think he also knows he would start soon anyhow
he wants to show people he is willing to learn the system and then start latter.
he also may get more minutes then reggie anyhow

Man, it sucks. I can't hate the Pacers anymore.

Maybe Pooh was right.

[Whottt]

Maybe he wanted to start last season so he could earn a bigger contract, and now that he's got it he's not as worried about minutes or starting? Didya ever think of that ducks? Huh didya, didya?

Man, it sucks. I can't hate the Pacers anymore. Maybe Pooh was right.

Whatcha mean "maybe". :)

Wow, I personally think that's great. I love Reggie Miller and it would be hard to see him comming off the bench. Then again, it must be weird for Stephen to come off the bench after being like the leader of a team (Hawks) all last season. I can see this working out to be like HEDO/MANU kinda thing. Where Stephen comes off the bench as a strong energy player. Although, I guess this kinda system will work better with the Pacers then it did for the Spurs since Miller>>>>>>>Hedo.

Man, Pacers are gonna be a great team this season. I hate to admit it cuz of Pooh :spin

Jermaine will still shoot 42percent, pull down 9 measly boards in the East, get a token MVP vote and the Pacers won't make the ECF. :sleep

LOL Kori.

Been standing to close to the stove again haven't you? :)

[SickDSM]

Yeah, the heat must have made her inflate her expectations for him now that he'll get shaq a few more times.


:blah

Reggie Miller blows.

There's the one-two Sick-Sequ punch! J. Oneal would be nice playing along side Duncan. He is not a dominating big man though.
