After a transatlantic flight, a signature shoe unveiling, a coaching clinic, and their first overseas practice, the Pacers are insisting it's still just business as usual.
"For us it's a business trip," Pacers head coach Nate McMillan said to the sizable media scrum following Tuesday's practice. "The focus is to get back into the gym today, get a good workout today, another good workout tomorrow, and get ourselves ready for Thursday's game."
But in the NBA, to go four full days without playing a game is far from normal, especially when you're a team as hot as the Pacers, winners of their last five consecutive games.
