DC looked very good. A lot better than his first stint here. Hope it continues.

I AM REALLY hoping that Nate isn't stupid enough to go back to using AlJeff in the frontcourt outside of playing garbage minutes when Myles returns. You could see the difference in the Frontcourt when Sabonis is on the court compared to when AlJeff is on the floor. KAT will get his points, but he had to work to get his points against Sabonis. Whereas with AlJeff, he had his way with him.

Sabonis is highly active on the rebounding end. He doesn't block shots but he does a good job of cleaning up. He has a very nice touch, he can finish and shoot around the basket.

I will highly satisfied with a Frontcourt rotation of Myles/Thad/Sabonis with healthy doses of Myles/Sabonis.

Admittedly, the entire team was on auto pilot when it came to hitting their shots. CoJo, Dipo, DC and even Sabonis.

This was my first game that I really watched, but I will add to the growing cast of Pacer fans here that has concerns about Lance.

I know that he tries, but something is off about him. I don't even notice when he's on the floor until he bounce passes the ball off someone's foot ( which he did twice ) over the course of the game. I hope that he's just adjusting, but I have far more confidence in CoJo and Leaf ( who I am beginning to appreciate ) than Lance. What I want from Bench Players is to be consistent while coming in to do whatever they are supposed to do. Specifically, I want them to tow the line and not allow the opposing Team to get back into the game. Everyone made mistakes, but I didn't really notice it compared to when AlJeff and Lance came in. I will chalk it up to getting use to new teammates and I am sure that he will have those flashes where we are amazed at what he can do. I'm just saying that he needs to become more consistent.
