    Does anyone know why Damp was benched the entire second half? Are the Warriors a better team without him in the game or was it just a coincidence?

    Some people you just cannot satisfy. A 20/20 game is "pretty good" and its "only one game." How many people have gotten a 20/20 game this year? Garnett, Duncan and maybe Damp. Now Dunleavy. That's tremendous, especially for someone not playing the 4 or 5. I am not saying he's a star but he just did something that very few players ever do, and it was not against the Wizards or the Hawks or some other horrible team.

    I'm waiting on his second game to see how he'll do against some real point guards. Pacers don't have what I call first class point guards.

    Tinsely is a pretty good point guard. He was eating up Avery at the start of the game. Dunleavy did a very nice job on him.

    Does anybody remember when Dunleavy crossed Bender over? That was sick!

    I watched it till halftime then went to sleep. I liked the move that Dunleavy pulled on Tinsley en route to an open layup. Reggie killed the Warriors though.

    Reggie simply came up big for the Pacers and killed their momentum. The guy knows how to get open and doesn't waste opportunities. He is a crafty veteran.

    Gawd, what is Jeff Foster doing with his left hand? Checking for hernias?

    Good point- the Warriors are more mobile on defense without him on the floor, and they can run in transition more on offense.

    Its games like these that probably make Dampier want to opt out. I bet his mind is set.

    Probably. It's like the thing with Gilbert. Everyone knew he was gone because he would ask for money that the Warriors didn't have and didn't want to spend. Now with Dampier, I would spend the money because without a quality center the warriors are so screwed.

    Yes they are...If only Foyle was a little taller, and a little better on offense.
