The Pacers were defeated by the Pistons on Thursday night, dropping them under .500. With the loss, the Pacers lost their third straight and their fifth out of their last seven games.

``I've got to stay positive with this group,'' coach Rick Carlisle said. ``There are a lot of games to play and this team will get better.''

Jermaine O'Neal finished with 27 points for the Pacers.

Also, Reggie Miller rebuked reports that he has privately revealed that he had plans of retiring at season's end.

``If and when, I'll have the first conversation with Charles (Barkley) and Cheryl Miller,'' he said, referring to his sister. ``Right now, I'm considering getting us off a three-game losing streak. I'll be there all year. That's the only thing I'm focused on.''

hmm, in the top 10 in payroll, 1 of their key players gone for the season, & an aging vet contemplating retirement...uh-oh...the Pacers better start thinking about blowing up the core & rebuilding from scratch...look at how they're underachieving!

trading Oneil to the Knicks this offseason sounds like a great start.

an interesting thing isiah said was that he will get back into coaching but when asked said that him coaching new york while bringing in another president is a possibility.

move isiah to the bench and bring in donnie walsh. that could be the best move we make in the offseason.

I want a first round pick to go with that.

I believe Isiah is not a good coach for this team. Do you think he can help this team win? Maybe with a few good players but either way, I think Isiah is not a good idea as a coach.
