Two Steps Forward, Two Steps Back: A Pacers State of the Union + Giannis on the Move?

Brad and Ryan reunite for a full State of the Union on the Pacers after their brief two-game win streak comes to an abrupt end with losses to Cleveland and Denver. The guys dig into the biggest emerging theme of the season: the head scratching scoring lulls—including a brutal 22–3 Denver run to end the first half—that Indiana simply can’t survive despite otherwise solid play. They break down big nights from Donovan Mitchell and Jamal Murray, the return of Johnny Furphy, continued positives from Jay Huff, and Ben Sheppard’s improved shooting. The episode closes with a league-wide lens, touching on Giannis and the Bucks and what his long-term future might actually look like outside Milwaukee.
