Assistant Dan Burke will be running the show on Friday night.
“It’s an honor to have the opportunity, that they trust me,” said Burke, a longtime assistant whose only NBA coaching experience has come in summer league. “Nate’s put all his trust in us, so we’re going to try to step up for him.
“When your leader’s not there, you’ve still got to step up and execute his way. He’s built a culture here and we’re going to follow that plan. There shouldn’t be much difference.”

Looks like a Myles Turner is back on the injury report, according to ESPN. Day to day.
We are now two games back of 3rd in the east, .5 back of 4th. If we could make a push into the top 4 before the all star break, that would be huge.

Big weekend - Charlotte, Philly, and then Washington on Monday. We can't let down against Charlotte and Philly and Washington are in the peloton with us. We probably need to win all three to get to 5th and then some tougher games follow next week.

Myles is needed. Lately D12 plays very well, and we know how refs treat Domas. Though Pacers are due to have a good game. Let's hope it's today

They shot 83% in the first quarter, scored 49 pts, and the Pacers are somehow only down 12pts. I expect a comeback.

pacer drinking game ... drink when Quinn says good defense when the other team scores, or good shot but he just missed it when we don't.

"Good defence, he had a hand in his face. Only thing he could've done better is get the hand there sooner."
Disappointing to lose, but quite amazing we were a chance late after the first and how well they shot the ball. If we could play against ourselves, I'd be all for trading Batum in as a contract dump for Charlotte.
