Myles Turner was frustrated with the way he played in the opener, so he did something about it. He played pissed off and finished with a career game.
Yet the Pacers came up short, by one, once again.
“The margins are very, very slim,” Carlisle said.

Wizards made 19 three-pointers just one time last season. They have already accomplished that two games into this season. The increasing shooting on this roster is night and day different. – 11:28 PM

Wizards announced attendance for the home opener was 15,407 out of a max capacity of 20,356.
The lower bowl filled in nicely, but definitely a lot of empty seats in the upper levels.
A deep and exciting team will certainly draw in more fans. – 11:25 PM

Pacers drop to 0-2 after 135-134 loss to Wizards. The start to their schedule is rough, but they lost both games by 1.
And it wastes Turner’s career game: 40pts, 10rebs, 3blks. Dinwiddie went off for 34.
Up next: vs Heat on Saturday. – 9:48 PM

Two brutal last possessions for the Pacers. An offensive foul on Sabonis before a Brogdon made 3, then a questionable offensive foul on Brogdon.

Chris Duarte nails a 3-pointer to end the half, evens the score at 73.
But the Pacers defense has been the issue. Wizards shooting 61% and have only 3TOs. … So two straight 73+ first halves from the Pacers.
Turner is 9 for 10 with 24pts. Duarte has 10. – 8:13 PM
