Finally people are coming around about McInnis:

Quote:
The Pacers jumped on the Cavaliers 26-20 in the first quarter. Pacers point guard Anthony Johnson had moments when he looked like Magic Johnson, driving past McInnis, making no-look passes and open, medium-range jump shots.
In 19 minutes against McInnis: Johnson had 11 points, eight assists.
In 17 minutes against Snow: six points, zero assists.
Remember that Anthony Johnson is a career backup, a guy who has passed through six teams (including the Cavaliers) in eight seasons. There was no excuse for how he was chewing up McInnis. He started only because Jamaal Tinsley was hurt. So was Pacers leading scorer Jermaine O'Neal.
