Pacers Links: Pacers start camp strong, ready to start playing

The Indiana Pacers started training camp on Tuesday with high hopes and things remain upbeat around the Fieldhouse with coaches, executives and players raving about how the team is working together after five intense practices.

According to Mike Wells, the Pacers will slide into game mode on Friday with the two practices used to simulate a game day, with morning shoot around and then a regular scrimmage in the evening session. Should be interesting to hear how the first and second units fare in what will surely be a competitive environment with both sides getting after each other.
