Devin Harris

Quote Of The Game:
"They scored the first 9 points right out of the gates and that set the tone for the rest of the game. It seemed like every one of those guys were able to get hot and they just started letting them fly. I think we got complacent, coming into this game on a 3 game win streak and going up against a team near the bottom of the standings. Definitely a snap back to reality." - Danny Granger

your screenshots look so good

the court almost looks real!

[mfbmike]

Horrible loss especially by giving up 26 by Hayes

Game was brutal. They just would not miss. Nets have always given me trouble. Seems like those fuckers are always taking off back down the other side of the court whenever I miss.

Great fn screenshot

your screenshots look so good

the court almost looks real!

lol, I thought that screenshot came out really nice as well. Thanks guys. :D

What's bullshit though is that on that play, Granger was wide open at the 3 behind me but I couldn't get the pass off before Yi came and tied me up. Then it was a jumpball between Yi and Miller. You can guess who won that jumpball i'm sure.

jarvis hayes is such a baller in this game.

Player Of The Game:

Danny Granger

Quote Of The Game:
"After that loss to New Jersey lastnight, we knew we had to go back to the basics. We came out focused tonight and busted out of the gates. This was an important win for us tonight. We are too good of a team to lose to teams that low in the standings." - Danny Granger

Oh lawd, Gerald Green! Please Hamma, don't hurt em!

[mfbmike]

They signed Magliore to a deal this past offseason.

I believe it was a 1 year deal though so don't freak out. lol. Brad Miller was traded to the Hornets in this chise before the trade deadline deal happened between Sac and Chi.

[LC AAU]

Bulls have a nice young lineup minus Jamal

Pacers Injury Report: Crawford Returns Tonight



Jamal Crawford, who has sat out for the Pacers past 3 games with a bruised hip, is expected to play tonight against the Pistons.

While the Pacers did give up a win to the lowly Nets a couple of nights ago, they did manage to go 2-1 in Crawfords absence and more importantly, maintained their pole position in the race in the Central Division.

Brandon Rush averaged 17 points, 4 rebounds, and just over 4 assists over the past 3 games in which he started in place of Crawford. Gerald Green also produced incredibly well with the increased playing time that was a result of Crawford's injury.

The Pacers are now 39-25 and are 4 wins away from matching their win total from a season ago, with 18 games left to be played in the regular season.

[Mit]

Good to see Crawford coming back.

[Vinsane]

I smell a Crawford beat down in the works. Your struggles against the Nets continue, at least you got Da bulls on their home court.
