Harrison is a scrub.
How can you call Indy deep? Have you seen their bench? Go away Pacer trolls.
No need to worry about Reggie...He want last the entire season as a host. Any attempts to upstage Barkley will be futile...

I think Reggie will be fine as an analyst. I've heard him give analysis on radio shows and he has a great personality for it. I look forward to seeing his chemistry with EJ, Barkley and Smith.
Hopefully it'll mean less Magic.
Aggie puts it in perfect perspective.any team that has to start Austin Croshere is not deep
Thank you aggie. Goodnight Pacer s.
First it was bender, then harrison then granger and jasikevicus, stop overhypying ur players cause they havnt prove anything yet
So Rasho is better than Croshere?
.
& Oberto has....
You guys really need to give credit where its due, anyone who doesnt think Spurs are gonna repeat you guys have the GREATEST thing to say about the person. Opinions difer, thats the best thing about life, everyone isnt gonna like the same thing, just relax, thats why the games are played anyway. No one is gonna roll over and crown you guys champs in Nov.
I think won Olympic goal and your boys haven't even won a college championship "NUFF SAID!"
Lmao ....won olympic GOLD....not goal, this ain soccer. And you and I both know what you did in the olympics has nothing to do with what you do in the NBA, ask Arroyo. So if its olympics you're basing this discussion then Saras has tons.I think won Olympic goal and your boys haven't even won a college championship "NUFF SAID!"
I think the bigger question is why are they letting miller take up time that charles, eddie, or the jet could talk. Get rid of miller. Down with Miller.
It's the man's opinion. No need to get riled up about it.
Right, because Rick Carlisle has won multiple rings, right?
I can't wait until the Heat beat the Pacers' ass in the ECF.
Off topic, but why does Pop still not get respect? I'm looking at coach's polls on NBA.com, and coaches are rating Larry Brown over Pop in almost every category!
Does beating someone not mean anything anymore?!?
Give romesy a break. The Pacers are a damn good team and he isn't trolling since he brings good takes to the board.
The Pacers have the talent to be in the finals but Reggie is right, the propensity they have for losing their heads has to be addressed before they can get to the next level. Artest, Tinsley, Jackson and even O'Neal can and do lose their cool too easily. I honestly don't know if they'll ever collectively solve this problem since it affects a large part of the team.
WHAT?? Your 5 "more talented and dangerous" than our 5? Of course we're going to have our biases for our teams, but let's not take it that far!
I think SA has more talent than your 5, come on.
Mohammed v. Foster. Foster? Maybe he's even talent-wise with Mohammed.
Duncan v. O'Neal. I'll give the physically more talented edge to O'Neal, but his overall game? Nope. Hands down to Duncan. Oh, and 2 MVP's, 3 rings, and 3 Finals MVP's. But you're not talking about 'past' achievements, right?
Parker v. Tinsley. Tinsley is a much better PG than Parker may ever be, but Parker's quickness is unsurpassed by Tinsley. Oh, and 2 rings.
Manu v. Jackson. "Talented and dangerous"? Manu hands down!! Jackson's never won a ring without the Spurs and is the only one on that team that owns one. (Besides Larry Bird) Manu happens to play defense, too. Oh, 2 rings and Real World Champ(Argentina).
Bowen v. Artest. Artest is much more gifted offensively as he can take you 1-on-1 and he's got youth on Bowen. Both are pretty equal at defense. Oh, and 2 rings.
The argument that Carlisle is a better coach than Pop is asanine!
Let's argue this again when Carlisle, who is a great coach, wins 1, or 2, or even 3 rings and then we can start comparing them.
I'm a diehard Spurs fan but I don't wear the Homervision Goggles as well. The Spurs are the better team but there is one main reason they are. Basically the Pacers can' get their sh*t together. They've got loads of talent and athleticism but their heads aren't in the right place.
Any analyst just coming off of a season with his team is going to have some degree of bias but Reggie isn't as bad as had been discussed here. First of all, he has chosen the Pistons to come out of the East, not the Pacers. And he called it staight out, the Pacers aren't consistent, they are too easily excitable, and anything can set them off and throw them off their game plan. That sounds like good analysis to me.
And enough of this "a ring makes you better than anyone else". Our IR fodder and end of the bench guys have gotten rings during out three championships but does that make them better than any other player in the NBA who doesn't have one?
You can't use "Rings" as a basis of comparision between two players or coaches, only two teams. Championships aren't won through individual play. Can one player have an extensive effect on the effort toward a championship? Yes. Can he win it by himself? No. A lot of factors come into play when it comes to winning a championship, any of which can derail the effort.
Sometimes you have great players or coaches who never got a ring because one or more of these factors didnt't fall into place. Team not talented enough, ill-timed injuries to key players, their team reached their peak at a time a more dominant team was also peaking, etc, etc, etc. Does that make them lesser players? What about someone like Reggie Miller who has been considered one of the most clutch shooters of recent memory? He probably didn't think they'll cross the championship hump this year or he may have stuck around one more year. Any because of loyalty to his franchise, he didn't bolt a couple of years ago in search of a ready made championship team like other players did. I consider that type of loyalty noble and don't think it makes him a lesser player because he didn't get a ring.
So Rasho is better than Croshere?
Rick Fox has 3 rings. He's better than Manu (2 rings).
Pacers can win the East this year.
Detroit is better than Indiana.
Tinsley is a much better PG than Parker may ever be
lol your kidding me right?????
How crazy would the Spurs' line-up be if Larry Bird didn't lie to Jermaine O'Neal's face about keeping Isiah Thomas as coach, and J.O. accepted an offer by the Spurs to team up with Duncan? Now that would be scary ...
On a tangental note, even as good as Jermaine O'Neal is, as explosive as Amare Stoudemire was last year, as prolific a scorer Dirk Nowitzki is, even as dominant as Shaq can still be, there is no other big man in the league that should even be mentioned in the same sentence as Tim Duncan, with the exception of Kevin Garnett. And, that does not mean KG is as good. It just means he's the only other big man that can EVEN BE MENTIONED in the same sentence.
^ true, J'oneal looks great. But when he plays Duncan, he looks like an elementary kid trying to play a high schooler
I laughed when he said the Spurs big three of Duncan, Manu, and Tony were basically a wash with the Pacers big 3.
Indy is pretty good, but Reggie is just making himself look stupid when he says nobody can play with the Pacers when they play at the top of their game.
Please, the Spurs could play at 70% and whip this Pacers team at 100%.
