22 straight points by Indiana in the 2nd quarter. Wtf
Stuckey also had 15 straight points

Reggie Jackson gets very careless with the ball. I'm surprised SVG was as patient as he was with him.

Jackson is the main issue with our offence being so inefficient. He's still our future but I can't wait for Jennings to get back to give us a 1-2 punch. Indiana's run like that should have never happened.

[jaadam4]

and our bench sucks right now

A few thoughts -

Meeks was at least serviceable off the bench. I guess they will miss him more than I thought they might.

I thought Joel Anthony, last year, was much better then what Baynes is bringing.

Stanley Johnson has no clue how to play team basketball right now. He's playing AAU style basketball in an NBA game (and hurting the team for it).

This team needs a healthy Jennings to score for it.

They might need to break up the starting unit, just to have some scoring off the bench.

Drummond is doing ok

All time high rebound single game total list - (from 85 and on)

Dominated by Rodman and Oakley. I forgot how good a rebounder Kevin Willis was... that guy played forever.

Drummond is only 22 years old....

The Pistons were still +8 with Jackson on the floor last eve. In 6 minutes they were -20 with Blake et al on the floor. It was a complete collapse by the bench.

They started off pretty good, but I turned it off after Indiana went on that 20-2 run or whatever it was. I've seen enough NBA games to know that they were in trouble.

Ahem....

--------------------------------------I forgot what an incredible rebounder Rodman was. He's all over that list.

[froot loops]

It's safe to say there will never be another player like Rodman.

Yeah, no once else can put quarters in their ears and hold them there.

Yeah I don't know if I've ever seen a bench play worse. They sucked so hard against average at best opposition. I feel like random D-leaguers would have done better.

That 25-2 stretch was just awful to watch...Not only could the second unit not do a thing on offense, but Indy just couldn't miss....Alot of those 25 points were very long jumpers.
