Pacer Coach Rick Carlisle must be wondering who he will be able to play Thursday night as injuries and question marks dot his roster. Jamaal Tinsley is out for Game 3, while Peja Stojakovic is a gametime decision. With Jermaine O'Neal complaining about the officiating and Anthony Johnson saying Vince Carter isn't tough, there has been just as much action off the court than there has been on it. The Nets are just hoping that they can bring the same defensive intensity that was so critical to victory on Tuesday.
