Alex Golden and Mike Facci answer the final portion of the July Mailbag. Thank you for your questions, and we apologize for those of you who sent questions that we did not directly respond to. With a lot taking place the past few days after asking for questions, some of these questions were outdated and we had to cut some from our discussion.  1). Casey JohnsonOn a scale of 1-10 how gracefully do you think Pascal's game will age? I see a lot of people thinking he won't fit the "next window," but with less basketball on his body than most at his age and the fact that he already plays a bit of an old man game in the post (which is a compliment), I feel like his talent has a pretty long tail on it relatively. 2). Randy Will the Pacers extend Mathurin now that Myles has left? 3). Christopher Was Myles the least important starter on our team? 4). Douglas Could we get Ben Simmons?  League min or vet exception?  1 yr deal just to see or Isaiah Thomas has been floating around different leagues. Curious 5). Epic Slay How do you feel about us giving a 1st when we signed Brogdon and now getting nothing when they signed Turner?  Does it feel like the Bucks really took advantage of us both times? 6). MVPacerNo matter what, the way we play will change. Whether it’s IJAX, Richards, or Bradley. Our scheme will be very different. Also with Mathurin starting and Nembhard at Point, same thing. How do you think this changes our play style?

Alex Golden and Mike Facci spend about 30 minutes reacting to all that Kevin Pritchard had to say in his offseason press conference today. The guys discuss what KP said happened in the Myles Turner negotiations, whether or not they will try and extend Nesmith and Mathurin, Haliburton's Achilles injury, the next moves for the center position, looking to make a big trade if the opportunity comes, thoughts on 2025 NBA Draft and MORE!Then, the guys answer Pt. 2 of the July Mailbag Questions. This portion of the podcast was recorded on Sunday evening, so some topics might have already been addressed after Pritchard's press conference, Nonetheless, we hope that you enjoy!

After losing Myles Turner in free agency to the Milwaukee Bucks, the Indiana Pacers have a glaring hole at their starting center spot. While this move doesn't mean the Pacers have their newest starting big man, it does ensure that Indiana has a center in their rotation that can do some of the things that Myles Turner did. Alex Golden and Mike Facci discuss the trade in the first segment, and then in the 2nd segment, Parker Fleming, a credentialed media writer covering the Memphis Grizzlies joins to share his insight on Jay Huff and how he will fit in with the Pacers!

Alex and Facci discuss the news of Ayton signing with the Lakers and then answer your mailbag questions! 1). Yonatan Sela What is YOUR opinions on what the pacers should do?Tank? Trade pascal and tank?? See how good the team can finish without Ty? Trade to make the team better? And whichever answer you have who are the players you would most want and what would the offer be?Love you both 2). Garrett Do you think the loss of Myles will all but guarantee the Pacers trade Pascal? He and Ty work well together and Pascals body is in better shape than most will be 33 year olds. 3). David MatilloCould Wiseman and IJax end up being great this season for Pacers despite coming off injury? 4). Matt Beckham You Mentioned Miami in most recent pod. Thoughts on trading for Kalel Ware? 5). Pacers Faithful what do you think are the players’ reactions to losing Myles- both towards the front office/ownership and Myles?  Specifically Pascal who came here partially for Myles and Tyrese 6). Chandler (lengthy one) My questions are pretty much the same even without Myles, so I'm interested in what you would say the Pacers probably do if they're somehow barely around or below 500 at the trade deadline from either not playing good enough or if they have to fight through injuries throughout the season?You think they probably make some changes or stay pat and if actually make changes, what changes would they possibly make/you would want them to make if any unless they wait until either the draft or free agency to finally make moves? I'm sure it varies on what everyone's value is at those points in the season and they also wanna make sure that Tyrese is happy with all the moves that they make, so that he isn't requesting a trade and I'm wondering if he either was told about the Myles situation before hand and cosigned or that whenever he found out, he would be content with the move as long as they have a good enough center since some star players are in the loop with everything/most moves that are going on since communication is EXTREMELY important and obviously Pascal really loved the idea of playing with Myles, so I'm really interested with how he feels about that now as well honestly... Also I'd like to add that if the Pacers somehow have a high enough pick, you think they either draft the best player available, draft a center, trade that pick plus multiple picks to either bring in another star next to Tyrese and Pascal, or trade for multiple role players that fit this roster next to Tyrese and Pascal? This was a lot, so I apologize for how long this is, but I want to say that I really wanna say thanks for everything and that I appreciate all the hard work and effort that you and @_Facci always provide for us with content and guests throughout the season to keep the podcast running so thank you  #IndianaPacers #Pacers #PACERNATION #LetsGoPacers

In one of the most shocking free agency moves in the last 5 years, Indiana Pacers center, Myles Turner, signs a 4 year, $107M contract with the Milwaukee Bucks in Free Agency, ending his 10 year stint with the Pacers. Turner was reportedly offered a significantly less offer by the Pacers than what Milwaukee offered, and Turner's camp blindsided Indiana by signing with a team that had no cap space, until they waived Damian Lillard and traded Pat Connaughton. Alex and Facci discuss the crazy day for the Pacers and what this means for the franchise moving forward. The guys look at potential options the Pacers could pivot to with Turner on the move, why they feel like Indiana not reaching a deal could be a blessing in disguise and so much more.
