OFFENSE
5th - Mavs
12th - Pacers
DEFENSE
2nd - Dallas
20th - Indy
REBOUNDING
9th - Dallas
29th - Indy
PACE
7th - Mavs/ 9th - Pacers
(both teams like to play at a break-neck speed)
TO%
6th - Mavs/ 7th - Indy
(Both teams turn it over very seldomly)
The Pacers have big 2001-2002 Mavs vibes and are better built for the regular season than the post-season, but they're still dangerous. If Mavs come out slow and let them get comfy, they can drop 150 on us and there's not much we can do. Mavs are still struggling in the first quarter and early games. This will have both. If the Mavs win, it'll be leveraging defense and rebounding.
INJURIES
Exum - out (but practicing)
Smith and Nesmith - out for Pacers

Doozy, on the other hand, is a good word to put in.
