  • Alex Golden and Michael Facci are joined by Chad Buchanan, Pacers GM, to discuss:
    -the past season and the run to the East Finals
    -was there a specific moment you realized this team had something special?
    -the truth on Tyrese's health during the playoff run, and where he actually was health wise
    -navigating the All-NBA requirements and Haliburton's injury the remainder of the season/postseason
    -what Chad learned from his team against Boston
    -players physically needing to get in better shape for a deeper playoff run
    -balancing the thought process of making moves to win now, versus staying the coarse and developing this core
    -what Chad learned from his team when they got down in a series: 0-1 against Milwaukee, 0-2 against New York
    -what Andrew Nembhard did this playoff run and whether or not he is the long term answer at the shooting guard spot
    -Aaron Nesmith's growth from being traded here for Brogdon and exceeding expectations
    -How the playoffs helped Jarace Walker despite not playing much & what the front office learned about his game after not playing in the rotation this season
    -What Bennedict Mathurin can take from this playoff run, what they want to see from Mathurin next season, Mathurin taking receipts of the negative comments about his game on social media and a great story about Mathurin's new hobby of baking

    -The offensive leap this team took and whether or not that was expected

    -The impact Siakam had on the team this season and how that can be more impactful next season with a full 82 game season, assuming he is retained in free agency

    -Tyrese playing with Team USA, what experiences are you hoping he takes from this opportunity

    A solid interview overall.
    Just don't push the bs about Jarace not getting enough minutes because of mistakes. He basically got benched every time he made just 1 defensive mistake. Something Tyrese does 2+ times every single game. You 1st said that it happened because of people before him playing well (Obi) and Walker was basically just unlucky because of that. Fine, that's the truth. Just stick with that.
    P.S. (And because Carlisle is not smart enough to add development of the 8th pick into his rotations. But I digress.)

    From the interview Chad said Jarace must earn minutes and not giving. Then why you guys play Doug over Jarace in the playoff?

    Keep following Carlisle’s lead Chad & you both will soon be fired!

      Are you tripping? Do you remember where the Pacers were in 2017? This organization has been sun running with the good moves they’ve made. They’ve fully rebuilt the roster without ever tanking or being able to sign big name free agents, and a large part of that is credit to Buchanan.

      Yeah, they both need to go….we still do not have a Championship Team…it was stupid to build an offense-only team with ZERO DEFENSE!!! How about signing some Veteran DOGS and DEFENDERS!!!
