Preaseason Open Thread: Indiana Pacers vs. New Orleans Hornets

Abafoster2_medium
Forgot to share Jeff Fauxster's love of the RWB ball before I left town.

The Indiana Pacers host the New Orleans Hornets in their preseason opener at the Pepsi Coliseum. The old Coliseum will have quite a day, hosting Democratic presidential hopeful, Barack Obama, during the day and then the Pacers and Hornets a few hours later.

Seems like a perfect fit since both the Pacers and Senator Obama are selling "Hope and Change" to the masses.

For a Hornets' perspective, check out At The Hive and Hornets 247.

Feel free to leave your thoughts on the game in the comments. I'll be travelling today so if you have more indepth observations from the game please put them in a FanPost that I can add to the front page.

Preaseason

I know its just the beggining of the work and I know is just the Preaseason…but the 2nd half blackout still walks with the team.

Wasn't pretty

but at least there was some good to take and easy areas to tighten up (shooting/turnovers).

Giving a better analysis

Considering that Preaseason is just practice, this game doesn’t tells much about the team.
Just shows that guys who never played together before need to know each other a whole lot better in court and that will probably take months.

Anyway…31% FG in the game (14.3% from the 3 point line), 25 turnovers, 11 assists and missing Dunleavy + Murphy = Complete Disaster.

JOB has a lot of work to do.
