    Garcia's only chance

    I do blame Muss directly for Cisco's predicament. From what I've heard, Cisco does well in practice, and I can promise you that he doesn't ever dog it or half-*** it effort wise. He clearly has the talent to contribute (See his starts and games he played 15+ minutes last year)So what does Muss...

    Garcia's only chance

    history has proven that you can't be a contender in the NBA without a bench. You can't have a bench if you play a 6-7 man rotation with starters playing close to 40 minutes a night. Not sure why Muss isn't trying to use Garcia more--when Cisco got minutes last year, he did a very good job...

    Francisco Garcia: Driven to a dream

    As a LONGTIME Louisville fan, I have followed Cisco for many years and am glad that he is starting to show the things that made Cardinal fans love him so much. The day after Hector died, Cisco flew home (Rick Pitino went with him and arranged the flight), they both came back the next day, and...

    How would you dish out minutes if you were coach?

    Cisco--25-30 min/night.

    Whacky ron quote, #7458

    Agree with your post and very good points with one exception. (see highlighted above). Having watched him daily for the past 5 years here in Indy, and also being an general acquantance of his, he knows what he saying (or has control over what he says) at about the same level as a young child...

    Bee: Adelman hopes rookie follows Martin's lead

    Cisco's ceiling is much higher than most give him credit for. He can play 3 positions, he can defend, he can pass, and he can shoot (still learning what is a good shot in the league). In addition to those skills, he has the intangible--heart/desire. You can't teach that, and you either have...

    SI article on Artest and Pacers breakup

    Good article. I am a Kings fan AND a Pacers fan. Have followed the Kings since Cisco joined and have followed Pacers for 10 + years. The Artest thing is especially intersting to me. As a Pacers fan, I was glad to put the whole thing behind us, but as a Kings fan, I'm torn. I do think if Ron...

    Garcia at Point

    Cisco at times played the point for the Ville last year (Dean was and is more of a 2 guard). His ballhandling looks to be much improved, and if he is pressured, he sees the court well enough that we will capitalize. The nice thing about Cisco, is that he really is willing to pass up a scoring...

    Question about Peja

    Saw Peja at the Cavs game friday--he sat on the bench and smiled quite a bit. He was laughing with Scot and Sarunis when they were on the bench. Talked to him for a moment in the tunnel after the first half and told him welcome to Indy and we were glad to have him and also asked him if he...

    Artest plays tonight--Peja has arrived

    I feel its my duty to walk over there (prior to the game) and voice my opinion that he strap'em on and jack up 15 shots tonight--we (Pacers)could use someone who can shoot tonight. BTW, I never got any response about the Kings taking jackson as part of the trade. We will give him away for...

    Artest plays tonight--Peja has arrived

    a friend at Conseco just called me. Peja is here. Press conference to be a 6:15. Apparently, there was a rumor that Peja got here last night, although I haven't been able to confirm that one yet.

    a different take on ron (ie bird is evil)

    Correct!! and yes, RA is a target, but deservedly so. There are PLENTY of examples of how he has made himself the target--I haven't seen many where the media undeservedly made him a target.

    a different take on ron (ie bird is evil)

    they are talking about this article on the sports radio right now here in Indy. Skip Bayless is a moron is the popular sentiment.

    Ron Artest Instruction Manual

    I can second that. RA is a nice guy and VERY involved with his family. Our son's play on the same bball team and I've talked with RA quite a few times (our kids also go to the same daycare). He is a nice guy off the court and was involved with picking up/dropping his kids off. Somewhere...

    Artest in limbo for tonight's Kings game

    Ron Artest Instruction Manual

    I wish I knew when he was arriving...I would leave work and cheer for him at the airport. (and also yell "suit up and play, without JO we are screwed and we need you to go for 30 tonight")

    Kings Free on League Pass this week

    the NBA tv was on my free pass this week. NBA tv is in the 600s--not around where the NBA league pass games are.
