[QUOTE="IPBprez, post: 927, member: 51"] I hear ya RYAN... Jermaine O'Neal did the same thing last nite with our Pacers.. with about one minute left in regulation play (against Milwaukee), he asked to be taken out of the game... It seems the other players were tryin to set him up to get all of the chances to score and when he missed that one errant shot(?).. he knew, right then and there, that it wasn't meant to be... We'd already won the game, the Bucks were down by over 12 points with 45 seconds left... Jermaine scored 55 points alone... But, asking to be taken out of the game and not worrying about setting yet another record was a class-act...? He's a standup guy! Only two others had ever done better.. One was George McGinnis (ABA - 58 pts) and then Reggie Miller, exactly 20 years later to the day... had scored 57pts and then sat down, as well. It's getting harder to find players who exude that type of attitude.. they're all so damn greedy these days... Sorry about the Bucks losing (not really) - but I've been a Pacers fan ever since the great ABA days.. Slick Leonard is one heck of a Coach and now he's one of the Announcers during the games.. He's our version of Bob Uechre! [/QUOTE]
