Alex and Facci join together to answer your mailbag questions and we have a lot to discuss! The guys spend a decent amount of time per question/hot take and dive into some really interesting conversations.

1). James Azulyoro

Hot take: I grew up during the 90s and until this last season I always put the Reggie-led Pacers as my favorite team ever. Last season finally bypassed it as my #1 roster…which leads me to the current roster with drastic changes and will that feeling be the same this next year?

2). Aimee (not Facci, but spelled the same way)

How is Andrew preparing for his new role/roles?

3). Connor Frame

Hot Take: Pacers should package their young developing stars in a trade for an established player for 2026-2027 when Tyrese returns (Walker, Mathurin, Furphy). I do not want this, but I have seen others discuss this possibility. Obviously it always depends on who you can receive.

4). Uncle Ink

Do you think that James Johnson makes his way back into a Pacers uniform this upcoming season? If so how would we make room? And who will have to go to make it happen?

5). Christopher Waltermire (Facci’s future cohost)

Hot Take: I believe Benn M. Will be a superstar once we trade him. He will not be on this roster next year.. It might be the dumbest mistake ever only time will tell. I hope he can workout tho. He reminds me of Kobe.

6). Adam Ripberger

Who do you guys think breaks out next season and possibly solidifies himself as the 2 next to Hali in 2026-2027? Also if things aren’t going well this season, who is the biggest trade chip you think gets talked about? Thanks guys!
