I find this offensive… we hitting the playoffs this year. How are we 5th? We barely tied for the 8th worst record missing our star Point God 30% of the season and literally trying to lose the final 25 games. Healthy + top needs addressed in the draft + at least one semi-big FA signing coming in?

And how in the bloody bollocks is Chicago 15th?
just take the over for easy money year after year lol
Multiple catastrophes would have to happen for us not to be in the playins
The people who make these lists lack originality
Probably under the assumption we are going to use our last roster spot on Max Struss
Hot Take: Memphis falls off the cliff with the Ja suspension and relying on Marcus Smart to keep things running smooth while he’s out (JJJ and Bane cannot keep Smart from doing boneheaded Smart things). Which means a few other Western conference teams leapfrog them and the middle of that lottery looks wildly different, especially if a few of the bottom feeders get MEM on their schedule early in the season. HOU, UTAH, and NOP could mess around and sweep MEM.
Wait we have the Clippers pick next year? How?
Sounds like easy money when the wins futures drop
Likely because they are looking around the league and the Pacers aren’t that good compared to other teams
I saw someone post this mock draft on a different sub this morning and my first thought when I saw it was “how the hell are the Pacers the 5th worst team in the league?”
I do think that the Pacers will finish better than this, but I can see it being more competitive among the teams that aren’t a lock to make the playoffs.
Nobody watches our team but us really. And half of y’all watch games with your eyes closed from your takes.
If we don’t have any injuries and our young players continue to develop well, I definitely think that we’ll be a playoff team. We would’ve at least been a play-in team this year if injuries hadn’t caused us so many problems.
Im down for hitting another +/- 30 wins bet if they want to give me free money.
If Tyrese plays 70 game they’re at worst an 8 seed. Mathurin and Turner need to make the leap to all star level to break into the top 6
Right now, the league is stacked with only the Wizards looking like a team not shooting for the playoffs/play-in.
We have a really good chance, but nothing is a given. Although, I’m not saying you’re one of these people at all, but I do laugh at the number of people saying we’re going to the playoffs, but saying our team make-up sucks, haha.
I hope this is what happens tbh, this team is no where near ready and Haliburton isn’t the age of part of contract where I feel like we should be rushing it like this. Let’s fully rebuild not three quarters of a rebuild
Come on, man. I was hoping for fifth last season.
