Painting at the ocean is like breathing, it gives life

He won’t be a starter

[Bobby Marks @BobbyMarks42]

The Kelly Oubre signing gives Indiana either a starter or impactful player off the bench.

Do not overlook the 2025 Eastern Conference champs for next year.

For now, the signing pushes Indy over the luxury tax. They are hard capped at the first apron also.

@MZESIMN @C2_Cooper Sure, that’s possible, nevertheless they went up 3-1 in each series. The idea it was just because of game winners does not match reality.

11-71 New game, try to get the worst team possible, easy hack, just pick white guys you remember from March Madness https://t.co/jOw49eXsoF #NBA #82and0

Forgot how little Tatum played in the 2010s, that may have been my one mistake

59-23 - considering my draw of teams I think I did about as good as possible

Drawing Washington from the 2020s is some adam silver rigging the lottery shenanigans

[Nathanael Gray @outfromthewild]

This new system is a train wreck, overcomplicated, will make tanking weirder but still just as bad. My prediction, tanking will be worse in a couple years than it is now

[Shams Charania @ShamsCharania]

The NBA makes an unprecedented move in American pro sports league by punishing the very worst teams in the draft lottery and creating a new system to incentivize winning — after months of meetings and conversations among league, ownership and team stakeholders. A radical response from the NBA to radical behavior, with nearly 8-to-10 teams jockeying for lottery odds down stretch of this season. The new “3-2-1” lottery starts next Draft and lasts through at least 2029.

So there is a way to keep our core seven and trade for Murphy

[Nathanael Gray @outfromthewild]

The Pacers had an 81% chance to be selected in the top 4 once between the Mathurin draft, Jarace draft, and this years draft.

[Nathanael Gray @outfromthewild]

I can’t believe the Spurs landed the no 1, 4, and 2 picks in three consecutive years. As a Pacers fan this just boggles my mind.

[Nathanael Gray @outfromthewild]

Fallon to second worst versus worst was the same odds, just happened to fall the Wizards way, but there was no miscalculation by the Pacers in falling from worst to second worst

[The Ringer @ringer]

The Pacers trade for Ivica Zubac cost Indiana the no. 5 pick in the NBA Draft 😬

[Nathanael Gray @outfromthewild]

@LawMurrayTheNU Also haven’t had a top 5 pick since the Berlin Wall fell

[Nathanael Gray @outfromthewild]

It’s gonna sting when one of the top four teams decides to take Acuff and Boozer or Wilson is sitting there at 5

[Nathanael Gray @outfromthewild]

My 8 month old son was crying, I said “why are you crying?” His answer broke me.

“Dad, the Pacers lost their draft pick which was supposed to bridge this era to the future when my hippocampus is developed enough for me to actually remember watching them play”

[Nathanael Gray @outfromthewild]

@TonyREast can you run the odds for the pacers to land a top 4 pick at least once between the Mathurin, Walker and this years pick? I feel like it’s got to be around 80%

[Nathanael Gray @outfromthewild]

An epiphany I had today, “Sippin on the dock of a bay” and “Sittin on the dock of a bay” works equally well for that song

Dang, and we got Papa John’s
