vs Wizards

That was the best game I've seen the David "the human foul" Harrison play as
a Pacer. One thing I noticed early in the game about O'Brien and Harrison,
DH threw a shoulder into the O-man as he slashed through the lane. That was
Harrison's first foul and he walked straight to the bench before O'Brien got
somebody up. Obviously they had discussed stupid fouls and their
ramification, and Harrison didn't make a dumb foul the rest of the game.
With Harrison's size, arm length and speed, O'Brien's style of play is what
he is built for. I've got great expectations for him this year, IF he can
get over the stupid fouls which in time will change the referee's quick
whistle on him. His block on Butler(think that who it was), pinning the ball
against the backboard swung the whole OT momentum to the Pacers.
Regarding the Heat, terrible pre-season, Wade is out, and they'll be coming
off a back-back with Detroit tonight.

Pistons showed how bad the Heat really are without D'Wade in the
lineup. Shaq was practically useless due to the defensive scheme the
Pistons had. Alonzo was effective but he can't be out there the whole
game and he can't be the whole team. Pacers need to put a body on
Ricky Davis when he's in the game otherwise he'll torch them.
