Lakers-Pacers Open Thread

Time to scrape another Eastern Conference lottery team off the soles of our Nike Zoom V's. Or in my case, these boat shoes from 1985 I still haven't replaced.

The only way to survive a visit to Indianapolis is through generous self-inebriation, so do just that upon any mention of:

• The Colts or the Super Bowl,
• Larry Bird,
• The 2000 NBA Finals,
• Hoosiers (the film, not the college team), or
• Reggie Miller.

Take me to your comments!
