  • The Knights & Shining Armor.

    The brothers of basketball truly know their hoops and Pacers. They’re an excellent…”listen”. My favorite segments are the “delusional” ones at the end of the show throughout the season. And for fun, waiting to hear what words Ryan will say incorrectly always gives me a chuckle. Spoonerism at its finest. All in all, these guys are a must-listen podcast and good people outside of the content they provide. #GoCers #WhatSayYou

  • Cheaper than therapy!

    My therapist told me I need to stop obsessing over things I can't control, but she clearly doesn't understand the complexities of the 2026-2027 cap space. Instead of paying her $150 an hour, I just listen to The Pacers Post Up. It’s the only place on earth where my encyclopedic knowledge of Indiana's future draft capital and mid-level exceptions is treated as a superpower instead of a cry for help. Five stars!

Q: What do you make of that? And what are you needing to see to feel like, OK, we can ride this out versus 15th roster spot. Let's find a point guard.
Ryan expects Rick Carlisle to stagger Haliburton and Nembhard so a primary ball handler remains on the floor, with Quinton Jackson playing more as an off-guard. He says the team may need another point guard if that rotation does not work.
