They are an Eastern conference team that seems to be at our tier right now. Their team has its own mix of promising talent with its own questions about fit. I feel like one of the two teams will look back at this game and say “This is when we started to put it together” and the other will say “This is when we knew it wasn’t going to work.”
Pacers and Orlando are for the first time in a while not absolute garbage time games but also not out of reach. Totally warranted to be exited imo.
