A New Era?...

Well, I just read on Yahoo, that Donnie Walsh has officially stepped down as GM of your and my Indiana Pacers. I'm not sure how I feel about this one. Donnie is truly one of the great GMs in the league and I hope that he doesn't go to another team and this move bites us in the ass. I do wish him well, whatever he does though. He has always been as classy as they come. That being said, we do need some new blood in that organization. I don't know if Larry's our guy or not, only time will tell, but like we've been harping on all season, they desperatley need to shake things up. Forget that, blow it up. Make all those bandwagon fans show up at the Fieldhouse again. The only way to do that is good basketball combined with likable players. Oh, and by the way, who has a 4 game winning streak and is threatening to mess up my whole offseason plan, that's right the ol' Blue and Gold. Really fellas, what's making the playoffs in the East with a losing record going to prove? It will just stymie us in mediocrity for longer. But as usual, I'll root hard for our boys even in their inevitable first round exit from the playoffs.
