    I think of it as 1 day between games. Back to back games are 0 days rest while 1 day in between games is 1 days rest. But that's just me.

    I'm sure they will but they won't be successful inside toyota center because we are more angrier than them. Pacers are in a funk but we don't play great D so I see us winning a close game.

    I feel bad for George Hill tomorrow night. He's gonna have nightmares about Bev.

    And TJones better bring his big boy pants. West is gonna try to bully him.

    Fair enough. We don't always view things from the same angle.

    Went to a Christmas Party in the first match-up against them so I missed it completely. I remember checking the score constantly on my phone and then getting sadder and sadder which led to me getting drunker and drunker. Hopefully Hibbert is still in a funk..I'm scared George will explode after having a 2 point game against the Bobcats..especially since this on National TV where he knows it will be a talking point during the broadcast.

    Pacers are going down big time tomorrow. As someone mentioned, we are due for a complete game where the starters and the bench play championship caliber basketball.

    -Jones and Motiejunas is going to have to fight hard vs. the wily old vet David West (and Scola, too). I suppose we might see some "twin towers" if the young PFs can't stop West but that would complicate things spacing-wise.

    - Looking at the schedule, over the next 5 games, neither Houston nor it's opponent will be playing in the 2nd half of a back to back. So, the fatigue advantage is minimized. This should give us a decent indication as to how good each team is.

    - Houston's recent stretch with their nearly full roster (minus Greg Smith) is encouraging. Even with Asik still working on conditioning and rhythm and Lin struggling after the break, the team has had a very good month-long run.

    The team has a good amount of talent and can do well even without getting the absolute best from everybody.

    Pacers seem to be slowing down just as the playoffs draw near.

    Will be a tough game. We have to push the pace and the best way to do that is get stops. If we can match the Pacers defense, we just need a few stretches of hot offense and the game becomes winnable.

    He should have his mask done up like Jason. The NBA will ask him to change it, but may as well get 1 game out of it.
