The Pacers have four rocks and a revolving door in their starting lineup, a confusing and unresolved issue they can live with so long as they keep winning.
So, coming off three consecutive victories, C.J. Miles' spot is safe. For now, anyway. Then again, it once appeared Monta Ellis had a firm grip on the position, and then it seemed to belong to Glenn Robinson III, so it's much too soon to declare it settled. It might not ever be, this season. Ellis wants to start, but has accepted coming off the bench. Robinson was eager to start early in the season, but is now comfortable as a reserve.
