Air Canada Centre
Radio: WIBC 93.1FM TV: Fox Sports Indiana

The Indiana Pacers are back in Toronto for an encore performance against the Raptors on Friday night.

The two teams tangled on December 28th with the Pacers hanging on for a 90-85 win thanks to some timely work at winning time by Danny Granger and David West. The Pacers withstood a strong performance by Andrea Bargnani and DeMar DeRozan to take the W back through Customs.

Tonight the Pacers catch another break with Andrea Bargnani expected to miss the game. The sweet shooting big man strained a calf in the Raps' last game and had to leave early. He remains day-to-day but according to reports, not this day.

Toronto will be desperate to find a way to win tonight as the enter the game having lost four of their last five games. To add to the sense of urgency, the Raps play eight of their next nine on the road with their next five games against Chicago, Atlanta, Boston, Portland and the Clippers.

The Pacers need to push aside their positive vibes and find an edge to play with tonight. The have to stay hungry for wins regardless of the situation the opponent is playing through.

Here is the Pacers.com preview. For a Toronto perspective, check out Raptors HQ.

Let’s keep up the great ball movement and smash mouth D. Hopefully we can build a sizeable lead to rest our starters so they can be fresh for tomorrow.

Without Clark

And his Clark-isms, we need to start coining some Denari-isms or Quinn-isms. Denari’s “They got a taste of the postseason last year and they liked it” is pretty awesome, haha.

yes

but the free throw was missed and D West hit a deuce on the other end. We are up 2.

Remember when everyone said our PF spot was the weakest?

David West and Tyler are a freaking good tandem. These two have thrown us on their backs in these final minutes.

Vogel with the brilliant strategy to foul Magloire.

Not sure about that, but I’m giving the coach all the credit anyhow!

We’re shooting 45% and made some great plays in the clutch. Coming back from a 16 pt deficit is a testament to resiliency. Great win.

Look at their faces.

No one is celebrating on the Pacers side. They have that “dodged a bullet” look in their eyes.

Whew!

An ugly one, but at least it is a win! Let’s hope Danny Granger doesn’t do anything stupid going through customs on the way back and get himself detained and miss tomorrow’s game against Boston.

Boston tomorrow - who has closed to gap to a 13 point lead from Chicago

if all I get are Boston feeds tomorrow, I’m putting it on mute. It’s too cold to go to the movies, anyway.

Man, it's fun following Blog a Bull's game threads.

Those guys are the most fickle fans of all time, and I’d wager that more than half of them are heavily medicated.

I would just like to say...

the first quarter made me so angry I left and played ball myself. I won every game, come home and find the Pacers won too. Good night I’d say.

Pacers motto - "Never Easy"
Pacers = Thugs
So Thugs never have it easy = Thug Life
I love the Pacers. I love the Thug Life
