There was optimism here at 8 Points, 9 Seconds when the season began. Frank Vogel was going to make this team into the idea in Larry Bird’s head and the Indiana Pacers were going to win a few games behind a resurgent Paul George.
That is not what happened.
Too many turnovers and three losses later the attitudes around the team and the nation have changed a bit as the Pacers have struggled to play four solid quarters of basketball.
The 8 Points, 9 Seconds roundtable assembles once again when their hands inching towards the panic button.
Next: Time to panic?
