I took a quick spin through my DirecTV guide and found Friday's home game but not Wednesday's road game.

I'm excited to see how this team gels. Want to see how well Collison handles being the lead man. Do the rookies provide anything their first time out? Hansbrough is a no go... bummer. And need to keep an eye on how the PF position is shaking out.

If George really is pressing Dunleavy for a starting spot, then George is the guy I want to see.

George starting would be awesome in its way-ahead-of-scheduleness.

Completely pumped about Pacers basketball this year. Don't think I've been this excited about start of basketball season since Reggie retired.

I want to see how Lance fares at point. Hopefully he gets time.

Can Rush participate in pre-season games?

PG got an easy one to start his Pacer scoring tally, hopefully helps him get his jumper going.

AJ scoring well.
Lance hasn't seen a minute yet.
Rolla had a few nice rebounds in a short time.

I'm looking at the box score though

Roy and McBob played very well looking at the box score.
Was also happy to see Lance and Paul George got some minutes.
AJ scored well (he always seems to score well and I am very happy with him).

I'm surprised it was that close with how terribly we shot.

I really like Hibbert

Turned in a 18-10 with 2 blocks and then he comes out and says:

“I think I could have played stronger,” Hibbert said, later adding: “I was really nervous before the game, and (it’s good) to get the first one out of the way.”


What a great kid.

Yeah, i love Hibbert.

Didn't see much of the game but going by what i read on several web sites, AJ Price looked impressive. Paul George, despite the lack of scoring, was very effective for the team with his defense and hustle. Also, it was good to see Stephenson get a lot of minutes, i think they will give him all the time in the world in camp and see if it truly is wise to keep him with his baggage. They will have to make a real big decision on him but if they believe he can be a star, they can't let him go just yet.

Brandon Rush only for like 8 minutes. And played poorly. I think his days as a Pacer are nearing an end.

How long before people admit McRoberts is a legit player?
