the opening night stuff I mean 14 games there's a lot of stuff going on and right here in Atlanta the Hawks were hosting the Indiana Pacers the team that knocked them out of the playoffs not only last year in a sweep but they knocked about the year before and you know what the Pacers had the Hawks number again tonight lots of pregame festivities in fact they even got the the floor painted a new color and they got the new logo and all that going on Reggie Miller yeah I've seen him hit that thing before 11 points in the first quarter Craig Ehlo he's back and he's healthy had a couple of knee operations he was really banged up last year but they're only down 42:39 there's David Justice and Marquis gruesome they're off the fire truck out of the parade members of the Atlanta Braves of course

the Pacers over the Atlanta Hawks let's switch gears to the Western Conference and yeah the man you see pictured to my left Charles Barkley and you know he's still the mainstay of this Phoenix Suns team they've had some changes out there one of those changes the retirement of a longtime veteran Danny Ainge who by the way just started coming here to work for us so Danny's first assignment after the McDonald's open of course was to go out to Phoenix and talk to Sir Charles and ask the hard-hitting questions and he did it have you checked the stats yeah as a matter of fact I'm glad you brought that up because right here well this is the all-time worst three-point shooters in the history of the NBA are you kidding right on the top of the list charles barkley 268 26 percent there's a trick
