A four-game losing streak has put the Pacers as close to desperation mode as a team can be just 12 games into the season.
Following Indiana's 114-97 loss to the Pistons on Wednesday night, Myles Turner told the IndyStar that he considered Friday's meeting with the 2-7 Chicago Bulls a "must win for us."

Bulls are good for nothing. Any new info on Domas?

I assume it's game-time decision, he's not been ruled out early this time so he might play.
This is a must win if Pacers are serious to push for playoffs, can't afford to drop these sorts of games.

I hope we can get our mojo back a bit against a team like the Bulls. If we can't, idk.

We should be too good for the Bulls, hoping for pace and ball movement - and some sharper defence. The rest will take care of itself.

Domas strikes me as a guy who is playing if he's listed as "questionable."

I'm really excited to see Myles Turner and Lauri Markkanen face-off.

It's like natural now for Pacers now to start well. I shoot pool pretty well, most important shot - the last one. In basketball terms - you have to finish opponent.

Unfortunately, we just can't even enjoy the leads knowing there is a good chance we'll just blow it in the second half.
Hopefully we can at least hold onto it against the Bulls.

The irony is that our old core was notorious for being a slow starter. We almost always played better in the second half.
Of course, this is a completely new group so it makes sense.

Lance and Domantas do not have good chemistry yet.
