A good test game for us. Some good match-ups to watch.
George needs to never forget Joe Johnson on the perimeter.
Work it inside to Roy, that's really our best play. He doesnt have to shoot it but, he needs a lot of touches. Go inside out. Don't stand around.
If we beat them on the boards and match their enthusiasum then we should prevail. But if we get our heads down they'll burn us - like Atlanta.
The tuffest team wins this.

Same thing as the other night. First Andre Iguodala and now Joe Johnson. It's going to be a long season with the way we're getting lit up by opposing shooting guards. James Jones started 4/4 from three in the Miami game and Ray Allen went off too.

Also, I'm glad Stephenson is 3/5 but 5 shot attempts in 5 minutes of playing time is crazy.

Just noticed Dahntay Jones took 5 shots in 5 minutes too.

Why are our worst players taking so many shoots? Not only our worst players but worst shooters.

I'm actually okay with all of those attempts. The Hawks were disrespecting his offense, and he got it going. The first layup was the most questionable play, but it shows why Bird considers him the most talented on our roster.

He's definitely talented but he's young and can't really shoot. I'm okay with him driving but I'd rather him avoid taking a lot of jump shots until he gets better at it.

This year? Granger has a higher three point percentage than both in his career. He's 2 of 3 from 3 tonight.

7:24 in the 3rd and Granger has 17pts 6/12fg 2/3-3pt 3/3ft 5reb 2ast 1to

Good game for him so far.

What a game so far. Danny has been great. 1st & 3rd quarters of this game are the best this team has looked all year.

Oop to Hansbrough was risky too.

This has been my favorite game of the season so far. Everybody is playing really well. Granted the loss of Horford was big, I'll take it.

Some numbers:
Pacers had 10 blocks. 4 for Roy.
25 assists on 39 field goals. Excellant!
Lance was 5 of 7 for 12 points, 5 boards, 3 assists, a block and a steal in 18 minutes.
Hawks made more frees than we shot (19-16).
Pacers are now 7 and 0 when they give up 95 or less.
We are 0 and 3 when the opponant scores at least 96.
