  • Loaded podcast for you all today! The guys dive into the Obi Toppin signing and whether or not it was a good deal for the Pacers to give Toppin $60M for the next 4-years. They then dive into how the signing impacts Jarace Walker's role and the rotation moving forward. The guys then look at the Pacers salary situation and discuss how Indiana is limited move wise in what they can do moving forward, and how teams like New York were able to make such splashy moves despite the lack of cap space.
    Then, Alex and Facci discuss the latest report from Mike Scotto of Hoops Hype on teams calling about Mathurin and Walker. After that, they speculate why Andrew Nembhard wasn't mentioned in that report. After that, Alex and Facci share the news of Chris Paul signing a 1-year deal with San Antonio and why getting an extension done with Nembhard this offseason is so important...what could his restricted free agency look like next summer? Alex has a hot and bold take on it.
    Lastly, the guys discuss what other moves have been made around the league, as of 9:00ish PM EST on Sunday and how it impacts the Eastern Conference. They then close it out by recapping Tyrese Haliburton's night on WWE Smackdown, facing off against Jalen Brunson in The Garden and grading Haliburton and Brunson's acting skills.

    Idk why the Pacers wouldn't have went after Mo Bamba immediately. He was by far the best available C. Signed a one year minimum with the Clippers..

      If not they will realize they could have traded him straight up for Caruso. Which personally I would have done. Of course I would have tried to squeeze out a pick.. But cap issues could be a problem next season. With him, Turner, Tyrese big supermax, Pascal bs contract goes up from 43+ to whatever. Caruso is one of the best point defenders in the league and has a great shot. He'd been absolutely perfect to play alongside Hali late in a game.

    25:36 The Pacers are trying to avoid the tax this year. But they are paying Pascal, Ty and Obi so clearly not afraid of it in the future.

      Salary and tax increases so that helps a ton. They will eventually have to make some consolidation trades.

      @daledilbeck9621 Před 25 dny +3

      He might end up being too expensive. If he was 15-20m I agree but I think he’ll be closer to the 30-35 range especially if he has a good year next year. Nembhard can’t be our third highest paid player. I would prefer we trade him for value if that’s the case

      @@justinwilson9848I agree 100% but he’s going to be so expensive to extend. I love Andrew and if we can get him for 20m we should resign him immediately. My guess is that he’s much more expensive than that or we would have already extended him. We cannot pay him 30-35m

    Stupid we have such a low cap compared to other teams

  • @rgwebb5165
    @rgwebb5165 Před 25 dny

    Glad they brought Pascal and Obi back. Just wish they would have had enough cap space left over for a veteran wing, they are still one short and I don't think counting on Jarace to fill that role this year is sound strategy. At this point, they have 12 players signed and only 4+ million left before the first apron so its unlikely they will sign anyone who will contribute this season with cap space. I'm hoping they use an exception on Kyle Anderson.

  • @johncraig4820
    @johncraig4820 Před 26 dny

    Obi is important because we need a solid backup for Pascal. Walker gets in the rotation when anyone is injured.

    Starters:
    C-Turner PF-Pascal SF-Nesmith SG-Nembhard PG-Tyrese
    Bench:
    C-Jackson PF-Obi SF-Walker SG-Mathurin PG-McConnell SG/PG-Sheppard(11th man)
    I'd release Doug McDermott, Jaylen Brown and Quinten Jackson. Sign our new 3 picks to two ways. Sign Oscar to the team. This is how I see us moving forward.

    Rick is a terrible and overrated coach and hates playing young players. He forced TJ in the line up instead of letting Andrew grow as a back up PG. Stunted Mathurins growth and refused to play Jarace for no good reason also stunting his growth. Pacers need a new coach who can teach and who allows young players to play.

      That’s why Nembhard and Sheppard both got minutes as rookies and young players. Mathurin played 28 min a game as rookie. You’re right he hates these young guys and it has nothing to do with their performances
