SB Nation Pacers blog Indy Corn Rows understands this is just preseason, but the play on the court is not looking good to start 2010:
Following a strong first half from the starters, the Pacers came out sans Josh McRoberts and laid an egg. The Magic decided it was time to close the game out, and they made it happen. The Pacers weren’t prepared to play a championship caliber team at full speed. Suddenly, Dwight Howard’s three first half fouls didn’t matter. Suddenly, playing perimeter defense on Vince Carter wasn’t important. The Pacers came back down to earth following a lot of good news this camp. We were reminded that, even in preseason, this team is still in transit.
The Magic went 33-13 in the third quarter behind lights-out three-point shooting from Vince Carter, who went 6-8 from behind the arch.
Darren Collison led the Pacers with 18 points, but only dished out one assist to three turnovers. A.J. Price continued to build off his solid first preseason game with the Pacers, scoring 15 points.
