Alex Golden and Facci closeout the MAILBAG podcast answering the following questions: 1). Erik Nikol If you guys are doing the consolidation trade in the offseason, which players are you keeping vs trading? 2). Mann Marsden Real take on the play of Tyrese and is he a superstar or franchise player ? Or jus mid like Evan Turner warned us about 3). Nicholas Thornburg If Myles Turner does not re-sign with the Pacers this offseason, what route do you think the Pacers would go for at the center position? Do you think a priority would need to be to go after a stretch big given the ability of Haliburton to dish well to centers for 3 pointers? 4). Adam aka REDS FAN RIP 19 What do you guys think has been the biggest reason for the turnaround and better play? 5). Sam Tompkins Do you think the starters would have more success with Nesmith in the line up? Would this free Mathurin up for more offensive production with TJ/Obi/etc by coming off the bench? 6). Josh Lovell The Pacers lack shooting, aside from Tyrese. Instead of Alex Len for the 15th spot, would they be better off with a real shooter, like Bojan? 7). Christopher Lloyd AKA The Film Critic With big contracts going to their stars, it's clear the Pacers can't play and pay all of their young talent: Nembhard, Mathurin, Walker, Nesmith, Sheppard, Furphy. How many do you think they keep long-term, and which ones? Thank you all for sending in your questions and for making Setting The Pace a part of your daily listen. Cheers!

The best conversations from Brian Mitchell and JP Finlay during the past week. The guys share their takeaways from the Eagles' blowout win over the Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX, including what it means for the Commanders. JP is adjusting to life without football, and has some thoughts about the Lakers and the NBA after watching Luka Doncic's debut with Los Angeles. He also lost a bet on the Wizard's overtime loss to the Pacers, but the guys are encouraged by the improved play of their young core of late. The Commanders have 28 pending free agents, so what is the offseason priority? They also react to the Commanders having the strongest odds of acquiring Browns star pass rusher Myles Garrett, according to the bookmakers.
Mel Raines, President and CEO of Pacers Sports & Entertainment, returns for part two of our conversation, diving into her role in transforming Indianapolis into a hub for major sports and entertainment. She shares how she made the leap from political consulting to part of the team orchestrating the 2012 Super Bowl and how that experience led her to oversee Gainbridge Fieldhouse and the business side of the Pacers and Fever. Raines discusses the explosive growth of women's sports, Caitlin Clark's impact on the WNBA, and the upcoming 2025 WNBA All-Star Game in Indy. She also opens up about leadership, the lessons she's learned from working with some of the most powerful figures in politics and sports, and why she hopes being a woman in an executive role soon becomes just a footnote. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in leadership, major event management, and the evolution of professional sports.
Alex and Facci are back to discuss the following questions from the mailbag! These questions were answered on a recording we did Monday evening, so we apologize in advance if some questions have already been answered with decisions made by the team. 1). Pat Curse In May the Pacers were 40/1 to win title. In October 60/1. February 1st they were 100/1. Then 120/1 and now 130/1. Why am I the only person on earth that thinks they could beat any team in the league in a 7 game series? Not would or should, but could. 130/1???? 2). DJ Davis — AKA THE LAWYER OF SETTING THE PACE Who should start at SG and SF to give the Pacers the best chance to win more games? 3). Jason I know the Pacers paid Tyrese max money, but aren't we holding his expectations too high? It seems like he's dropped off playing with pascal and while he has been indecisive too much I think most fans are judging him based on the IST and that's not who he truly is. What do you think? 4). Kyle Taylor — aka dude knows ball How concerned are you about the Pacers continued struggles against zone and Ty being face guarded, even though they've seen a lot of it all year? Does this long term weakness mean there's a clear blueprint to beat Indiana in a playoff setting? 5). DonTrell Bullies Do you think De'Aaron Fox is a better fit for what the Pacers want out of their point guard compared to what Haliburton brings? 6). California Bobby Do you think Walker should be getting more minutes? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
We open the bonus show this week by talking about Joel Embiid, and the possibility of him needing yet another knee surgery. Rob feels like he did himself a disservice by playing in the Olympics and that the Sixers need to work with their doctors instead of his to try and get him back on the floor. Plus a listener wants to know if we’re sleeping on the Trail Blazers, who are still a young team and not that good yet, but Rob feels like they have a lot of upside. Rob also defends his stance that the Lakers need to take the ball OUT of AR’s hands, after he had a monster night against the Pacers, but Rob says its because he just holds the ball too long and takes too many shots when he needs to spread it around more. Harper also thinks that Lakers need to work more on building around a big and less on the shooting guards that have been dominating the game. And listeners want to know Rob’s opinion on a player like Bradley Beal going back to the Wizards (even though they are not good) to be the big dog on the floor as opposed to getting limited time on a team that should be better. Lastly, as Ben Simmons leaves the Nets, we ask Rob what team is immediately better if a player leaves town. And on Valentine’s Day, we ask all the guys about their top three candy bars and of course a huge debate breaks out.

Munaf Manji and Mackenzie Rivers talk NBA betting for Tuesday February 3rd. The guys also give out best bets. Key Trades and Reactions 1. Lakers-Mavericks Blockbuster Trade (5:10 - 13:22) Trade Details: Lakers send Anthony Davis, Max Christie, and a 2029 first-round pick to the Mavericks. Lakers receive Luka Dončić, Maxi Kleber, and Markieff Morris. Immediate Reactions: Rivers was shocked, comparing it to waking up in a new reality. Luka's potential as a top-30 player all-time makes the trade stunning. Why would Dallas trade Luka? Concerns over his health and conditioning. His commitment to the game was questioned by the Mavericks' front office. Lakers' Perspective: Luka learns from LeBron's longevity and conditioning regimen. Lakers' future is now built around Luka as the post-LeBron centerpiece. Mavericks' Outlook: Can Anthony Davis stay healthy? The odds shifted after the trade: Lakers went from 40-1 to 20-1 to win the championship. Mavericks dropped from 20-1 to 40-1. 2. Jimmy Butler to the Warriors (16:18 - 20:52) Trade Details: Golden State acquires Jimmy Butler from Miami in exchange for Andrew Wiggins. Warriors also add a shooter from another team. Analysis: Jimmy Butler extends with Golden State for two years, $121M. The window for the Warriors is closing, but this move might extend it. Rivers isn't fully convinced: Warriors needed a Kevin Durant-level addition, not just Butler. Draymond Green is holding the team back. This trade makes them a playoff team but not a title contender. 3. Cavaliers Acquire De'Andre Hunter (22:24 - 23:42) Trade Details: Cleveland Cavaliers acquire De'Andre Hunter from the Hawks. Why This Matters: Hunter fits perfectly as a 3-and-D player. Cavs now have a strong starting five: Darius Garland, Donovan Mitchell, Hunter, Evan Mobley, and Jarrett Allen. Comparison made to the Denver Nuggets' balanced championship lineup. 4. Bucks Swap Middleton for Kuzma (23:42 - 24:21) Trade Details: Bucks trade Khris Middleton for Kyle Kuzma. Analysis: Rivers isn't a fan of Kuzma. Bucks might have just made the move to cut salary and stay under the luxury tax. With Giannis now injured, the Bucks' short-term outlook is uncertain. Tuesday's Betting Insights & Game Analysis 1. Raptors vs. 76ers (-7) (25:41 - 31:18) Key Points: Joel Embiid is questionable but likely to play. Sixers' defense has been atrocious (30th in the NBA last month). Betting Pick: Rivers likes the Sixers (-7), believing they'll turn things around. 2. Knicks vs. Pacers (-1) (32:14 - 33:59) Key Points: Knicks want revenge for last year's playoff loss to Indiana. Betting Pick: Slight lean toward the Knicks due to their bounce-back potential. 3. Pistons (-3.5) vs. Bulls (35:18 - 39:24) Key Points: Bulls are surprisingly better without Zach LaVine. Pistons are one of the most improved teams with Cade Cunningham leading. Betting Pick: Manji likes the Pistons (-3.5). 4. Grizzlies vs. Suns (-2) (40:50 - 43:50) Key Points: Memphis leads the NBA in pace. Phoenix's defense is struggling. Betting Pick: Manji likes the over (238.5). Best Bets Mackenzie Rivers' Best Bet: 76ers (-7) vs. Raptors. Believes Sixers are undervalued and will improve. Munaf Manji's Best Bet: Grizzlies-Suns OVER (238.5). Memphis pushes tempo, and Phoenix can score. Final Thoughts The NBA trade deadline significantly changed team dynamics. Lakers now have their next franchise player in Luka. Warriors' title hopes remain slim despite acquiring Jimmy Butler. Bucks' future depends on Giannis' health. 76ers are undervalued, and overs are trending in February. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Alex and Facci discuss Alex Len not signing with Indiana, and the Pacers bringing in Jahlil Okafor on a 10-day contract. Then, they answer Pt. 1 of the Mailbag Podcast. 1). Northeast Nightmare over on Blue Sky has 3 questions for us! A). First, rank which opponent you'd like to see Indiana face in the first round out of Milwaukee, Detroit, Miami and Orlando. 1st by matchup, 2nd by storyline. B). Do you think Myles Turner will credit the Pacers $10M towards his next contract since Indiana did him a service and paid him nearly $30M a year on the last renegotiation and extension? C). Will the Pacers use Isaiah Jackson's disabled player exception to sign Alex Len? Is there any benefit towards that? (Mentioned James Johnson needing to be released, but this is why they traded Wiseman). 2). Aaron M — THE GOVERNOR of the Setting The Pace Fan Club Do you think the best chance for the Pacers to win an NBA title is actually continuity, or is that just a word they throw around? This is considering the odds the Pacers win the #1 pick are zero like they appear to be. 3). Chuck and Jamie — THE OG FANS OF THE WEEK! At the halfway point: What has been your biggest surprise this season? Who has made the most improvements? Who/what has been the most disappointing? One thing you hope to see in the second half of the season? 4). Roosters — the President of the Setting The Pace Fan Club In your estimations what are the chances Herb goes into the tax this offseason to sign Myles to a long term deal? Also, what would you be willing to sign him to if it were up to you? Personally I'd try to get him for 5/100 and offer him a NTC. Knowing may have to go higher AAV. Learn more about your ad choices.
