They let good players go

JO - nagging injuries and never became a leader for the team despite being an all-star and our only bonafide star player. it was time for him to go.
artest - the dude is a psycho and the reason the DET/IND riot started. need i say more?
al harrington - the 1st time he left was to get him a starting spot on another team. he was good enough to start but he was coming off of the bench. he needed to leave. the 2nd time i was pissed about. it seemed like we turned our back on him but it was for a trade, so whatever.
stephen jackson - yet another headcase but not quite on the same level as artest. he seems to have calmed down in GS and has done quite nicely for himself there.
dunleavy - he is a great player. he had a hell of a season last year for us. i have nothing bad to say about him whatsoever.
foster - he's the backbone of our defense. the guy is the epidome of the "blue collar worker". i hope to see him retire as a pacer.
peja - well, this deal didn't quite work out. he had a decent season w/ us but he was wanting more $ than we wanted to spend on him. NO had a better offer.

Use jamaal off the bench...

jamaal comes off of his doctor's bench more than ours. he's done playing for the pacers.
