No Pepsi Pro League?
OK, here’s the scoop on the one game I did watch.
Pacers 93 Bulls 89
Pacers:
Kareem Rush and Stephen Graham both played well, as did Kasib Powell. Nothing much to add because these 3 SHOULD play well against SL competition. All three are probably close to their ceiling IMO, so their play is no surprise.
Bulls
Tyrus Thomas played well. At times he didn’t have a feel for the offense, but he showed some nice spin moves in the post, tried some UP and UNDERs instead of trying to dunk, and blocked everything that came near him. He’s clearly trying to expand his offensive game.
Thabo Sefolosha struggled with his shot and in this first game, looked like the same player that ended the season.
JamesOn Curry has a nice shooting stroke and looked good as well. I think he makes the opening day roster.
