KEY GAME INFORMATION
DALLAS: BACKCOURT: Point guards Deron Williams, Devin Harris and J.J. Barea have lived 97 years of life between the three of them, so expect plenty of responsible decision-making on the court and very few fast breaks. Williams' health is critical to the Mavericks' success, and easing off the mid-range jumpers wouldn't hurt. SG Wes Matthews was visibly less athletic last season than he once was, but a return to pre-injury form still isn't out of the question. . . . FRONTCOURT: PF Dirk Nowitzki's adapted old man game is as good as they come, guaranteeing him further success for the near future. The questions in the frontcourt are all regarding offseason acquisitions from Golden State. SF Harrison Barnes will either benefit from a lower-pressure situation or crumble under the expectations of an increased role. C Andrew Bogut will be reliable if he's on the court. The question is whether he can stay there. . . . BOTTOM LINE: Rick Carlisle is one of the best coaches in the NBA, and he frequently has his teams exceeding expectations. The veteran roster offers many mentors for Barnes, meaning he has both the talent and resources to succeed.
INDIANA: BACKCOURT: Swapping in PG Jeff Teague for George Hill at point guard is an offensive upgrade, considering Teague's 40% mark from three last year. SG Monta Ellis looked something close to washed up last year, but apparently put in serious work this offseason. SG Rodney Stuckey, his backup, will look to bounce back after a season in which he was heavily affected by injury. . . . FRONTCOURT: SF Paul George is as good of a centerpiece as any franchise could hope for, and there's a high ceiling on any team he's part of. PF Thad Young didn't get much attention in Brooklyn (or Philly before that), but will remind many of his ability now that he's back on a playoff team. C Myles Turner is one of the league's most exciting big men and is still only 20. C Al Jefferson should fit well as a post scorer off the bench. . . . BOTTOM LINE: It's hard to know what to expect out of a completely revamped Pacers squad. If new head coach Nate McMillan can fit the pieces together, there's more than enough talent for this team to land in the East's top four.
PREVIEW
New-look Pacers welcome Barnes, Mavericks in opener
 

INDIANAPOLIS - The NBA season kicks off on Wednesday night for the Indiana Pacers and Dallas Mavericks.

New faces in both places breed renewed optimism entering the 2016-17 season.

The Pacers parted with head coach Frank Vogel after last season, and team president Larry Bird said he wanted to redefine the way his team plays. The overhaul also brought point guard Jeff Teague, power forward Thaddeus Young and center Al Jefferson to the Pacers, who tout superior athleticism and depth than previous seasons.

Indiana's franchise player Paul George is looking forward to testing the new-look team in the regular season.

"I don't want to jump the gun and say this is the best team I've been on, but it's shaping up to be," George said. "I've got a new group with unbelievable talent."

The Pacers face another of their former coaches, Rick Carlisle, who is entering his ninth season with the Mavericks. Indiana's new coach, Nate McMillan brings a style of play to the franchise that might not be recognized.

"I think our roster puts us in a position to play any style," McMillan said. "We want to play with a lot more ball movement. Our guys have to commit to running."

There's a lot of talk about George, Myles Turner and the new Pacer players, but former Maverick Monta Ellis will have a lot to say about the team's success this season after his most diligent offseason in several years.

"I rededicated myself this summer in the gym," Ellis told NBA.com. "Last year was tough. I let the team down. It's a new beginning and I wanted to be part of that."

Ellis is hoping to help the Pacers defeat his former team on opening night. Last season, he averaged 18.0 points per game against the Mavericks.

For Dallas, the new faces on the team include two NBA champions from Golden State- Harrison Barnes and Andrew Bogut. The Mavericks haven't made it out of the first round of the playoffs since winning a championship in 2011, and they will be relying heavily on these new additions to get over that hump.

"They're champions," said Mavericks star Dirk Nowitzki. "They're great players and they're part of a championship team, so they know how to play and they know how to win."

A lot of eyes will be on Barnes in particular after signing a $94 million contract. His preseason performance brought heaps of criticism in Dallas.

"There's going to be bigger expectations and I'll have a larger role on this team," Barnes told ESPN.com. "But the biggest thing I've learned in my four years I've been in the league is that winning is the biggest priority."

One of the issues for the Mavericks moving forward will be the aging point guards. Despite the talent, Deron Williams, Devin Harris and J.J. Barea are all on the wrong side of 30. As the NBA continues to play a faster game, the Mavs could struggle keeping up at that position.

Last year, the Mavericks and Pacers had identical offensive numbers.

Dallas averaged 102.3 points per game, while the Pacers averaged 102.2. In Wednesday's matchup, look for a high scoring contest as each team will try to get out and run on opening night.

The Pacers won both games against the Mavericks last season.
