    Is it just me or does cunningham look like he is missing his two front teeth? If so anyone know what happened?

    Why the hell is Blake gaurding TJ Ford when Bayless is out there?

    I wasn't comparing him to Blake. I was referring to a bad pass that cost us a bucket.

    Blake's a good defender. We won the Houston game because of his defense on Brooks.

    I typically don't judge a player on isolated incidents. I remember Blake getting burned multiple times in the playoffs last year by Brooks.

    Ugh, we are letting this team hang around. Even in our depleted state we're still much better than this bunch of scrubs from Indiana.

    I remember Blake shutting Brooks down in some of those games.

    We won the Houston game because of Andre Miller in the 3rd and Brandon Roy in the 4th. Blake is an adequate defender but I'd rather see Bayless on Ford and Blake on Jones.

    Brooks shot 10 of 36 in Games 3, 4, & 5 of the playoffs.

    We're up 7 with Roy playing only 13 mins. I can't help but think we would have been able to stomp on their throats if Dean played Roy with 2 fouls.

    I'm liking Bayless' decision making quite a bit better than I remember him having in the past. I sucked to see him blow by Head and not be able to finish, but I like the high percentage nature of the shot plus him making his jumper more consistently.

    All-in-all, I like the effort, but they gotta keep Hansbrough and Foster off the offensive glass; if not for those breakdowns this would be a 10-15 point lead.

    I don't. Maybe for one game when he held Brooks to 5 points. The rest of the series though, Brooks averaged around 17ppg. A lot more than he averaged on the year last season.

    Bayless is the only player on the team that can consistently get to the basket. I'd really love to see him play 25+ a game. He's good enough.

    Also, Pacers are practically a D-League team without Granger, but I'll take the win.
