It's only preseason, but Indiana Pacers fans have hope again after seeing that the team has not lost its identity despite being without Tyrese Haliburton and Myles Turner.
Wins and losses don't mean anything in the preseason, but what teams show to get to that point does. Fortunately for Pacers fans, the team stayed true to their MO: they played fast, fought all the way to the end, and kept the pressure and their composure in clutch moments.
The Pacers blew a 24-point lead (and a 13-point lead heading into the fourth quarter) in their first preseason game of the year against the Minnesota Timberwolves.
