Indiana Pacers Getting Inside 2008-03-11


Indiana Pacers Getting Inside 2008-03-11
Indiana can find trouble if there's any in the area.

The Pacers' latest blow came Friday when team officials suspended center David Harrison a game following his tantrum in the locker room after Thursday's game at San Antonio.

"I feel bad for him because he has a lot of potential, a lot of talent, and he doesn't seem to be able to harness it in the right way," Pacers CEO Donnie Walsh said.

Harrison's incident, coupled with numerous other off-the-court problems the past couple of seasons, has prompted co-owner Herb Simon to say he's going to take more of an hands-on approach with his franchise.

"Ever since Detroit, we seem to have one problem after another," Simon said of the November 2004 brawl at the Palace of Auburn Hills involving Pacers players and Pistons fans. "But we've had 21 great years where we were a shining example in the community. Now it is my responsibility, and believe me, I'm going to get on it, to restore that kind of image of our team so we can all be proud of them and concentrate on winning and losing and not so much on outside incidents."

Simon didn't go into specifics but said there are going to be changes in the organization next season.

"We're talking about restructuring, rethinking, all the things you do when your team is in crisis," he said. "We're going to be having a series of meetings and we're going to make changes, yes."

CAVALIERS 103, PACERS 95: The Pacers are glad they likely won't be seeing the Cavaliers again this season.

Indiana, which has dropped three straight games, went 0-4 against its Central Division counterparts this season.

The reason?

LeBron James.

James, whom many have called the MVP of the league, averaged 29 points against the Pacers this season. He had 38 points, 11 rebounds, four assists and two blocks against the Pacers on Saturday.

The Pacers, who trailed by as many as 21 points, were led by Danny Granger's 19 points and five rebounds Saturday. Troy Murphy and Marquis Daniels both chipped in 17 points each.
