The Standard is the Standard: Pacers Set the Tone in Preseason Opener

The Pacers tipped off the preseason in Minnesota and wasted no time showing what this season’s identity could be. Brad and Ryan break down the team’s fast start against the Timberwolves, including the crisp ball movement, full-court pressure, and solid shooting that set the tone early. From efficient offense to the defensive energy across the roster, this felt like more than a tune-up — it was a statement. The guys discuss early rotations, standout performances, and how this first look reinforces the Pacers early season mantra: the standard is the standard. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
