by Kent Sterling The Chicago Bulls hammered the Brooklyn Nets 113-86 last night to help the Indiana Pacers gain control of their own playoff fortunes. A win tonight against the Washington Wizards couple with another tomorrow at Memphis, and the Pacers are in. After winning five straight, the Pacers appear to be rolling, but they […]
by Kent Sterling I’m all in – not only for the Indiana Pacers to earn a spot in the NBA Playoff, but to raise hell once they get there. With seven games left, it was assumed by most that the Indiana Pacers would need to sweep those games in order to secure a spot in […]

That so many continue to covet the talented but flawed player is one of the strange paradoxes of professional and college sports because they […]
by Kent Sterling NBA Basketball is a weird game. Paying close attention is sometimes difficult. My mind wanders when it appears that the minds of the players wander. Last night, I watched the Indiana Pacers beat the New Orleans Pelicans from start to finish because they appeared to be engaged for the full 48 minutes. […]
