Ep 773Are the Pacers better off trying to win now versus prioritizing the development of their young players?
Alex and Facci answer 10 questions from the mailbag questions submitted Monday!Interested in advertising on this podcast? Email [email protected]!1). Garrett Baggs - With the recent drought of wins, do you feel the team's goals for 2023/24 have changed? Would you expect us to make a win now move or two by the deadline? If so, other than TJM & Buddy who would be most likely moved?2).Corn Snobb - I think Aaron Nesmith has EARNED a starting spot on this team. While he probably isn't a starter on a contending roster, do you think he is on this one? If so, who should he replace? If not, why?3). MVPacer - I can't see us coming to a deal with Toronto... but what teams ACTUALLY need Buddy and TJ the most, do they have any wings that would work for us in a trade?4). Brettsketball- Is Aaron Nesmith the 2nd best player on the team this year?5). Chase aka Pacers World - your ideal starting and bench lineup until we make a move6). Jason Lough - Are the Pacers really better off trying to win now at the expense of further developing guys like Mathurin, Sheppard, Walker and Nembhard when they are sitting at .500 anywayand vets like Buddy and Bruce haven't played particularly well?7). Jeff Kew - Lots of talk about the usual suspects for trade targets. OG, Siakam, etc…Give me your under the radar trade target heading into 2024 that we're not talking about. My two cents...Tari Eason.8). CFalcon31- I believe Nembhard is a better long-term git than Mathurin. Who do you think fits better long-term with Haliburton in the back-court?9). Vinnie - If we go after a 2nd star, what are your thoughts on including Turner in a deal and then scooping up someone cheaper like Jarret Allen or even Poeltl who are decent pr bigs that rebound good and are a giant drop off on defense?10). Tyler Johnson - At what point does Rick start giving Jarace consistent minutes? The losses (ugly losses) are starting to pile up and although he's surely flawed his defensive potential should have him out there given how bad we are in that area. Learn more about your ad choices.

Ep 771Who do you believe the Pacers can realistically trade for to make them better now but possibly greater next year? (Mailbag Pt. 2)
Alex and Facci are back to answer more questions from the Mailbag!1). DJ Davis - With Hali becoming a superstar who makes everyone around him better, who do you believe the Pacers can realistically trade for the Pacers to make them better now but possibly greater next year? Think about Sabonis +for Hali, Buddy +. 2). Garrett - Who do you think is the ideal fit to help lift the pressure of Hali so he can continue to dominate without being double teamed?3). Coach Bryan - Who or what would you sacrifice for a slightly improved defensive team on a nightly basis? Or, should we just sit back and appreciate a team/ roster that can really score it?4). Aman Bakshi - IST and AS Game will put a spotlight on Indy, what can, or should team do to improve fan engagement both in ticket and TV exposure. Surely, this expansion in fan base can entice more big market players to join the Pacers, no?5). Chase Sasin - Two questions: Would buddy, benn, and three firsts be enough to trade for mikal bridges? Mikal is the only player I'd be willing to trade benn for. If Myles doesn't re-sign after next season, do you feel comfortable with Jalen being the starting center of the future?6). Matthew Peck - If a trade was made for a dynamic wing with length how drastically will it change the overall play of the team? We are built completely based on space & shooting offensively. What happens if our wing does not excel at shooting? Would you be okay with a dramatic offensive change7). Ben Neal - What are your thoughts on Nembhard and Nesmith both starting alongside Tyrese, Obi and Myles? Clearly they are the two best defenders that also can score, and at least for the short term it could give a boost to start and end games.8). Jon Geise - How many All Stars will the Pacers have if any?Interested in advertising on this podcast? Email [email protected]! Learn more about your ad choices.
