News and Notes
May 8 Pacers coach Jim O'Brien said that Tinsley (knee) can no longer be depended upon to be their point guard because of his injuries, the Indianapolis Star reports.

Recommendation: The Pacers have mentioned the point guard position as one of their offseason priorities. "To say as a coach we're going to go with him as our point guard despite the injuries, you can't do that," O'Brien said during a phone interview Wednesday. "I would love to see him healthy, but that has not been the track record. It's very, very difficult to depend on him when, physically, he's been undependable. When he's on the court, we know what we're going to get. He's a great assist guy, he runs the fast break great. But based on the track record of physical ailments, how much can you depend on him?"
