The Hawks offer up an opportunity for Indiana to pick up where it left off, entering the Friday night meeting with the NBA's 24th-ranked defense.
While Atlanta has had its struggles this season, the Hawks (18-41) aren't without offensive weapons.
Second-year wing Taurean Prince has developed into a valuable two-way player, hitting on 37 percent of his 3-point shots and averaging 12.2 points and 4.7 rebounds per game.
Joining Prince in the Atlanta frontcourt is John Collins, who has posted one of the highest field goal percentages among rookies, making 58 percent of his shots this season.

Man, it seems like it has been forever since the Pacers last played!
Looking forward to getting the second half of this season underway. We'll see how everyone took care of business during the AS break.

About time!
I saw the other day that we climbed all the way to top 5 in power rankings on NBA.com.
Might be short lived, but still feels good...
Go Pacers!

Looks like everyone is excited to see them back in action. Ticket prices have gone way up in the last week...

Obviously due to the addition of Trey McKinney Jones. They knew he would be a box office bonanza. I'm telling you, that Pritchard fella is one shrewd dude.

I don't have exact figures, but when I was looking at re-sell tickets, club level had them around $35-$40 a little over a week ago. Now most of them are $60+. Upper balcony are $30+ instead of the regular $10. Just kind of surprises me in a matchup against ATL. However, it is one of the last Friday night games of the season...

Prices vary considerably game by game. I buy a ten game package and include the big games like the Cavs, OKC, and Warriors and then sell them for double or triple my cost making the rest of the tickets free.

Good plan there. I was more talking about the jump in ticket prices compared to last week. All comes down to supply and demand I guess.

Vic is not shooting well but doing everything else great! Hope he gets the minutes to get that triple double.
