    How did OKC give the game away? Amazing that the Pacers were in the ECF last year, in the Finals right now, and some people still think they're a Cinderella and won't give them a shred of respect. Weird. I don't know what more they need to do for some to admit they're actually a pretty damn...

    Two more, Pacers. Friday's crowd is gonna be nuts. Gotta bring it and protect home court and take control.

    It's possible. Obviously not near MJ level in general, but I get your point. He may do it if OKC goes on the run that many think they will. Big difference between MJ then and SGA now is that back then people actually cared where you played college at. There was a history. Nobody cares about that...

    I'm watching. I turned Game 2 off at halftime. I knew the Pacers were cooked. Looked like a completely different team. Something was way off. But OKC looked like a different team too. Pacers are back to their normal selves tonight.

    ChatGPT's prediction for next season

    It's pretty nuts. I've been using ChatGPT like crazy on my aquarium stuff. I've put it through the ringer with some complicated, tricky stuff, and it's definitely accurate. Not shocking, I know. But crazy how detailed and nuanced it is. Great tool!

    UNC Coming to RUPP! (ACC/SEC Challenge)

    Cats vs UNCheat? I know, let's have a spelling bee?

    UNC Coming to RUPP! (ACC/SEC Challenge)

    Defending national champs have to go to Cameron. LMFAO. What a joke! Heaven forbid Duke has tough road game until the Final Four.

    Would someone plz evaluate how the other SEC teams did in the offseason?

    Cal had a pretty good finish, even if he barely made the tournament. Both valid points, IMO. I think his seat continues to slowly warm up, unless the chicken money turns into a game changer (which honestly could help or hurt Cal). Cal will get at least four years there.

    Quaintance moving around nicely

    One of those kids hurts him and I'm letting hands go. About wearing slides, maybe it actually helps keep his brain from instinctively slipping into full on basketball mode and inadvertently hurting himself. IDK.

    Height in 2025-2026

    Did I miss our updated average height somewhere? Not that I think it means a ton, just curious.

    Ain't gonna lie, I was considering it. But I figured it's the Finals, tomorrow was a Friday, and this team just does these kinds things. Probably different for the rest of you guys, but listening to the pre-game and in-game was like listening to a Duke/Flagg/Zion game for me. Non stop slurp fest.

    Nope. Just a biased homer, mostly regurgitating stuff I hear on the radio from guys who know this team. But, thanks!

    Y'all are making the Pacers sound like a 16 seed in their first year of D1. This team really shouldn't have surprised anyone.

    Anyone watch any of the talking heads this morning? Anyone owning it? Or were they all "I saw this coming. Anyone that's seen them knew this was coming." kinda crap, or did anyone own it? Guessing it was all about OKC blowing it. Anyone with a morning shows summary?

    Our local radio guys were saying that earlier. For as fantastic as the Thunder have been all season (more wins by double digits than total Pacers' season wins) they haven't really had a lot of close games to grind out. It's just one game, but this is the only way the Pacers can do this. Try to...
