Brussels says +6.0 Pacers
I long to see great defensive work to erase doubts.

Season opener! I'm not getting any sleep I'm so fired up, my neighbors are probably upset about me bouncing off the walls at 4 am!

Really interested to see what happens this year with this team and how it gels, but really, I have no expectations whatsoever. Really hard to read how this team will play when it matters. Hopefully, we'll, but.....we'll see!

short of a blow out win, I don't think we are guaranteed to learn much in the early going. this team could take a while to gel.

Hope not. Placed a rather sizable bet out in Vegas that our Pacers win over 44 games.

I think you're safe even though I expect to be better in March than in November (not looking at schedule).

Good luck tonight guys. Dallas starters have looked terrible all pre-season so unless Rick pulls something out of his hat I fear this one could get ugly. Looking forward to seeing the new look Pacers tho after some major off-season changes including your coach. I'm hanging my hat on big games by Barea and Curry off the bench.....

I think your best hope is Bogut getting Turner in early foul trouble.

Pacers playing well tonight Stuckey nailed a 3 on the pass from Thad.
I'm watching the game on SlingTV, check out Sling Blue has sports channels including Fox Sports Midwest which is what I'm watching the game on now. It's a great deal about 40 channels for $25.00!! Better than $110 for cable.

Is Myles Turner as dominant as the box scores says he's been? Holy cow. I'm excited.

Turner has been a monster! He's like peak Dwight Howard with an outside jumper!

Turner is looking really good. 4th quarter 9 point lead. Let's win this one!
