The Chicago Bulls host the Indiana Pacers as these Central Division foes meet once again in the 2013 NBA Preseason. Make no mistake about it, this is a must-watch game, at least from home. Preseason games are not really meant to watch in person, especially for fans expect to be entertained. Here is the TV channel and radio coverage info for these games as the Bulls and Pacers play Friday evening.
Game Time: 8 p.m. ET
TV Channels: CSN-Chicago, WMVP
Radio: No radio coverage announced
There will be no need of having it on the radio if it is airing live in three channels. Well, it's bad for those on their way home from work or to work. It is also Friday night, some people might want to get their party weekend started early, so they might not be at home during tipoff.
The Bulls and Pacers met in early October, less than two weeks ago, for the preseason opener. The Bulls took that game by the score of 82-76 behind a strong performance from Taj Gibson. Gibson finished the night shooting 9-12 from the floor, scoring a a game-high 18 points along with 12 rebounds to complete the double-double.
The game also officially marked the return of Bulls' point guard, Derrick Rose, who sat out the entire 2012-2013 season as he recovered from a torn ACL. Rose has looked good. He is strong and is looking to regain his speed, plus, Rose says he improved his vertical, he just has no reason to use it now in the preseason.
The Pacers received solid contributions from their forwards Paul George and David West. Currently, Danny Granger is working his way back from injury, he played less than 30 minutes, going 2-10 fromt he floor, scoring six points.
This Pacer team is supposed to challenge one and all. This Bulls team made it pretty far, granted, the healthiest humans on their team was the coaching staff. The Pacers are considered true challengers in the Easter Conference for years to come. They are gaining experience the hard way; through elimination in the playoffs, but they are getting further and further each year. The Bulls have their leader on the court and he should bring out the best in everybody.
So there it is, all the TV info with channel and game time as two of the best teams in basketball meet once again. This should be a better machup than your average NBA Preseason game.
