The Indiana Pacers should be excited to get back on the court tonight when they host the Atlanta Hawks at Bankers Life Fieldhouse. After a dismal second-half performance on Monday night in Chicago, the Pacers have a chance to jettison that losing feeling with a strong effort against the Hawks.
The Hawks are dealing with injury issues as shooting guard Joe Johnson missed their last game on Saturday with knee tendinitis and will not play tonight. Jerry Stackhouse, Tracy McGrady are expected to give it a go but depth will definitely be an issue for Atlanta. Jeff Foster will be out for the Pacers.
Here is the Pacers.com preview. For an Atlanta perspective, check out Peachtree Hoops. Also, after the game check out Pacers Overtime on WIBC 93.1FM with Eddie White. Need to have an Indy Cornrows mention on the show!
