    DONE FOR NIGHT WITH HEAD INJURY

    The Pacers announced that Smith is being transported to a local hospital for additional testing out of an abundance of caution. After Tuesday’s contest, the Pacers have an extended break, with four days off before their next game Sunday against the Magic. Isaiah Jackson will likely slot into the rotation as the Pacers’ backup center if Smith isn’t ready to play Sunday.




  • If you have a SiriusXM subscription, the NBA station has a good 50-min long download/stream with Mark Boyle interviewing several players and Carlisle about the upcoming season. I liked hearing from the new players. Obi Toppin impressed me with what he said…acknowledged that the team didn’t acquire him for his defense/isn’t known for his defense, and has been working hard to get better on defense. The team overall has had that focus. And they all sound hungry, individually and collectively as a team, to be better, surprise people and win a lot more games this year.

    1. Indy but originally from the Richmond area.
    2. Moved to Indy in the prime Reggie Miller years and went to many games in the market square arena days.
    3. If healthy, especially Haliburton, I think they leap into the 4-6 seed, finish around 10 games over .500, and make the playoffs without having to go through the play-in games. Looking at the 2023 teams above them last season, I think the Pacers are better and deeper than the Bulls, Raptors, Hawks, Heat and Nets. Still hate the Knicks over here, and hope they leapfrog them, too. I’d love to see the 76ers implode, too!
