Alex and Facci are back for another episode, and they continue answering the great questions from our Pace Setters. Adam - How many more games can Haliburton miss before he becomes ineligible for All-NBA??? Just curious as your thoughts on whether he should take a game or two and rest or if that would make any difference at this point? Peetie Pete - 500 lbs elephant in the room. Do you think that Tyrese is playing on one good hamstring to meet the 80% availability rule and not lose that $40mil? And do you think his recent play could actually push him out of All NBA contention because of it anyway? Gene Turnbloom - Is there any chance that Rick gets fired if the team falls apart and somehow misses the playoffs? I think a lot of nights recently we’re getting out coached. Is it always on the players? C Falcon 31 - Do you think that Walker can develop into a starting forward alongside Siakam, or do we still need to go shopping for a 6'7+ forward to deal with guys like Ingram? Evan Noggle - Can Indiana be a top 6 seed even if Halliburton isn’t putting up pre-injury stats? Will that production come elsewhere? Franky - As of February 15th, Indiana's 2024 draft picks would be 37th, 51st, and 54th with 56th heading to the Warriors. Is there anyone you like as a potential draft prospect with pick 37? I think getting an experienced player like Nembhard or Sheppard would make sense. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
