MISSING - I don't got no steenkin' officials!
MISSING - Better check the quarterly scoring. I had to draw from the game notes.

Technical foul - Charlotte Q2

(ind)Schrempf rebounded and scored, esp. fts, and (ind)Davis hit the winning
ft with 27sec left, as the Pacers won 110-109, spoiling (Cha)Mourning's debut.

   Charlotte finished the Q1 with a 10-2 run over 1:45, closing  with Gill's
3-pointer as time expired to lead by 7. Indiana took a 52-47 edge in Q2 with
2:06 to go on a Thompson fg. (cha)Reid hit 3fgs in the final 1:41 of Q2 to
close within 1pt at the half.
   In Q3, Indiana led 83-76 with 1:41 left on a pair of Schrempf fts. Charlotte
ended Q3 within 2pts on Gill's layup with 4sec remaining. They retook the lead
109-107 on Gill's rb-fg with 1:05 left in the game. Then (ind)Schrempf hit 2fts
with 45sec to go to tie it again at 109. (ind)Davis was fouled on a rb after a
(cha)Johnson miss. His 1st ft was an airball, but, after a Charlotte timeout,
he swished the 2nd ft complete the game's scoring. (cha)Johnson missed another
at 6sec, resulting in a jump ball on the Hornets' end with 2.7sec to go. The
tap caromed toward the Pacers' end as time expired. [From UPI and Miami Herald]
   (cha)Mourning, who signed one day earlier, started a little slow. "In the
1st half I came out a little anxious. I lost my wind real quick," said the 2nd
overall pick in the 1992 draft. "In the 2nd half I was more relaxed. It's a
learning experience for me. I'm glad to get the first one under my belt."
The 6-10 $26.25mil (over 6yr) center picked up 4 fouls in 7min in Q1-Q2. "I
wasn't really worried about my game. I just tried to do what I could do to help
us win. That's the way to start a career off." Mourning played tougher ball in
Q4, trading shoves with (cha)Smits during a dead ball and picking up his 1st
NBA rb and block. "One, he wasn't afraid out there," said Indiana coach B.Hill. 
"Two, he was arguing with the officials, which will catch up with him. And
three, he was aggressive."  [Quotes are from UPI]
