Pacers had a 90+ percent chance to win late in games 1, 3 and 4. They’re not quite ready for the big time yet, especially without Halliburton on the floor.

I’d say Alcindor, Walton and Laettner, in that order. Hard to go very wrong with Walton at number one, though.

I read a long time ago that Walton was seven feet tall, but considered that to be a bit freakish. He insisted that he be listed at 6-11.

There’s a great bit out there where Walton is talking about the first time he took the Celtics to a Dead concert. All except Ainge. His wife wouldn’t let him go.

RIP. Great player, an acquired taste as a broadcaster (I loved him).

Hockey doesn’t get attention here, and I’m as guilty as anyone for not promoting it. I don’t watch regular season hockey but I do try to catch postseason elimination games. Last night was no exception as Edmonton held off a late rally by Vancouver. We’re down to: NY Rangers - FL Panthers DAL Stars - EDM Oilers

Wolves come back from 20 down to dominate the homestanding Nuggets in the second half. I love game sevens.

Redlegs catch the Padres at a good time. They play a doubleheader today at Atlanta, and Darvish pitched yesterday.

Reds drop another close one, 3-2.

Good guys drop games 2 and 3; 7-2 and 4-0. Try to get the split today.

Burrow healthy? 12-5.

Tough one to let get away today after a nice early lead.

Had the Reds not scored a run in the ninth, this would have been only the second home series (3 games or more) in franchise history scoring one or fewer runs.

Os 2 Reds 1. Same story as last night. Great pitching but not much hitting.

Youngster.
