The Pacers finish up their pre-All-Star break schedule tonight in Detroit against the Pistons. Travis Diener is not expected to play which may unearth some playing time for Stephen Graham. Of course, Graham may have to play point guard. Oh, well, better than nothing. Here's Bruno's Scouting Report which downplays the Pacers' improved play since winning remains a struggle. Meanwhile the Pistons and thier three All-Stars are healthy and cruising along. I think I'll limit my expectations to a solid 48 minute effort again tonight.
Here's what the efficiency numbers say:
| Team | Pace | Off.Eff. | Def.Eff. |
|---|---|---|---|
| IND | 96.4(3rd) | 106.4(19th) | 108.4(18th) |
| DET | 86.3(30th) | 112.7(6th) | 104.2(3rd) |
Projected Starters
| PACERS | pos. | PISTONS |
|---|---|---|
| Mike Dunleavy | F | Tayshaun Prince |
| Troy Murphy | F | Antonio McDyess |
| Jeff Foster | C | Rasheed Wallace |
| Danny Granger | G | Rip Hamilton |
| Andre Owens | G | Chauncey Billups |
