OK, if you're posting on a game that no one else has yet, it'd be cool if you BOLD the date and opponent to make for slick future viewing.
10/28/09 @ ATL, Game 1
Learn to pass! I'll have more later after I watch the DVR.
Pacers made too many turnovers, you can't win a game if you make more than 25 turnovers.. :/ Murphy was really sloppy with his passes, especially the first outlet pass to the point guard.
But we learned Murphy, Granger and Earl Watson will all be big time contributers this year. We already knew about Murph and Danny, but Earl looks like he's gonna step right into Jarrett's role from last year.

Can't wait to see them against the Heat tomorrow.
I agree with you, Dahntay shot way too many ill advised shots and B-Rush did not shoot nearly enough. B-Rush needs to get the ball more and when he does; he needs to be more selfish and shoot it or attack the basket.
And as you said one positive surprise was Earl Watson.
Now hopefully Pacers get that first win against the Heat, Pacers need to continue their streak of 17 wins @ home against the Heat.
Turnovers and points off turnovers are two categories the Pacers lost badly to Atlanta on Wednesday night. Atlanta also tightened up its defense in the fourth quarter as well. Hopefully the Pacers can get a "w" against Miami tomorrow.
I just stepped in the house and ther's just afew minutes left but we're smoking the Wiz by 20! So maybe Catz and I were overreacting. Hans got on the floor and from the boxscore looks like he did well, Hibert continuing his beastly ways. Rush turned an ankle though I guess. Can't wait to watch this game in full.
To be fair to you and I, we weren't overreacting, the team really was that bad to begin with, and we had reasons to be alarmed, though I'm not usually a sky is falling kind of a guy, I was legitimately scared.
Anyways, maybe this team can put it together, and maybe since they got the taste of victory, and they know what roles each has to play, that they may have turned the corner in a quick amount of time.
This is how I'm seeing it.
After the terrible first quarter we had against Denver, we only lost the last three quarters of that game by one point, with guys like McRoberts, Dahntay, and Ford making a difference.
We won the other night, and we put up a good victory against the Wizards tongiht, a team who have looked to be on the up, beating a tough Dallas team IN Dallas. So they are a decent team, that's for sure.
Hibbert is getting better and better, learning to stay away from the foul, averaging a double double, and we're finding success without all of our players. Murphy's been out for two straight games, coincidentally both wins for us, and Rush left tonight's game early.
Tyler Hansbrough was awesome tonight. Awesome. 13 points and 5 boards in 13 short minutes. Provided lots of hustle and energy, and got to the line quite a few times. Good signs for us.
I was very impressed with the win against the Wizards last night. That is the best I have seen the Pacers play both offensively AND defensively in the same game in years. I suppose though there will still be some bumps in the road but I am intrigued by the way the Pacers have played the last two games. The next two games against Golden State & Boston will be interesting.
