I like how this guy is trying to use this one ABA title to prove that the Pacers are a winning organization...Lakers have won eight titles since Indiana has entered the NBA, and won the conference 13 times. Pacers have only won the conference on one occaison (where they were, coincidentally, beat by the Lakers).For the record, you can't even get your own stats right, the Pacers have 3 ABA titles...By the way, if the ABA was so much tougher, as you say, why did the Pacers have only one winning season in their first 13 in the NBA? Hell, they only won 44 games that season anyway.
Pacers fan is showing signs of being a desparate man. -Making up stats-making up things about Jerry West.-making fun of the leagues best player-saying that Odom couldn't gaurd whats-his-name-trying to debate ROK-says Granger is a better defender than Prince-and my personal favourite "consider yourself unread"HAHAHAHA

Too bad that wont happen at all. And what do steals and blocks have to do with playing great perimeter D. AI gets loads of steals, but he is a bad 1 on 1 defender.Limited offensive skills? Once again, you proved your intelligence here. Prince averaged 14 ppg as the 4th option on the Pistons. How many players can boast those numbers as a 4th option? Please, go ahead and tell me. Oh, and Tayshaun has a ton of skill on offense. He rarely has the ball in his hand, but he still finds ways to score. He is a great shooter, he's quick, he can drive. He has a silky offensive game, and he is a good offensive player. Idk how you managed to compare his offensive skill to Jason Collins, but expect to hear the boo-birds pretty soon...</div>yes it will know why?cause he will double his minutesyou know why he's got 14 ppg?because his teamates are always doubleteamed and all he needs to do is catch the ball and dunk itseems like most of the time the pistons play us prince has a horrible shooting percentage and not very many points<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Clangus @ Oct 29 2006, 05:30 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>Pacers fan is showing signs of being a desparate man. -Making up stats-making up things about Jerry West.-making fun of the leagues best player-saying that Odom couldn't gaurd whats-his-name-trying to debate ROK-says Granger is a better defender than Prince-and my personal favourite "consider yourself unread"HAHAHAHA</div> :thumbdn1: :thumbdn1: :thumbdn1: :thumbdn1: :thumbdn1: :thumbdn1: :thumbdn1:http://www.nba.com/history/players/barry_bio.htmlbtw - I never said anything about jerry west

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>names aren't similar - but games areI dont go my names - I go by games</div> If you can't distinguish a person's name from one another. Your a lost cause. The fact you searched to show Jerry West played in the ABA by actually searching Rick Barry's profile is disturbing. Justice's claim that you might be causing a ruse for the sake of it is sounding more and more true.
Oh please just shutup and quit trying to make it look like you meant Rick Barry. They are two totally different players who played for two totally differet teams. Do you think were all idiots here. Also I laugh at how much you know about your own team. Danny Granger will play 40 mpg this season? Don't make me laugh. Who else wuld he share minutes with? Well lets see they did just aquire a guy named Al Harrington who also happens to play both the SF and PF positions but he won't be playing at all huh? Of course there is also Josh Powell and Shawne Williams to add tot hat list. Wait to just make yourself look like even more of a dumbass. Plus you said he will double his minutes which is 44 mpg not 40. Wait to screw up the match again smart one. So Tayshaun Prince doesn't normally do well when he plays you guys? Oh yeah actually watch the Pistons please. You have no idea what you are talking about. Tayshaun only gets points off of open dunks? I'm osrry but to average 14 ppg your going to have to score in more ways than getting open dunks. He's a solid shooter and shoots a career 38% from 3 pt range. He also can create for himself and take it to the hoop. Once again watch basketball for once. Oh yeah btw if Granger averages 2 spg and 2 bpg I will send you $500 dollars in the mail.
...Tayshaun can't score? That's ridiculous, he's not putting up eye-popping scoring numbers, but he's also an option behind Sheed, Rip, and Chauncey...Hell, he was drafted partly due to his shooting ability and clutchness...Dude dropped 41 in one game in his last year at Kentucky...
