INDIANAPOLIS (AP) -Jermaine O'Neal missed the Indiana Pacers' game against the San Antonio Spurs on Sunday night with a sore left knee. A hobbled O'Neal shot 4-for-18 and scored 10 points against Orlando on Friday after sitting out Wednesday's loss to the New Jersey Nets. He is averaging 19.8 points and 9.8 rebounds a game. O'Neal has missed five of the last 13 games with the knee injury. Indiana coach Rick Carlisle said the Pacers aren't ready to consider shutting him down for the season.
