Rodney Stuckey couldn't possibly care less, and doesn't mind telling you so.
"I just don't care, man," he says.
This might wave a red flag, coming from a guy once regarded as having a bad attitude, but Stuckey's brand of apathy is a blessing for the Pacers. What he doesn't care about is starting, which qualifies as one of the many positive elements of the Pacers' team chemistry. A guy like Stuckey, a ninth-year veteran who's started the majority of the games in his career and is established enough to have received a significant three-year contract from the Pacers last summer, could be forgiven for considering himself a starter.
