Myles Turner's Emotional Return to Indianapolis: What to Expect Monday Night
Episode 2208
Myles Turner returns to Indianapolis for the first time since leaving the Pacers after a decade to join the Milwaukee Bucks. Will the Gainbridge Fieldhouse crowd shower him with cheers or boos?
Justin Garcia welcomes Tony East from Locked On Pacers to break down the complex emotions surrounding Turner's homecoming. The conversation explores why Pacers fans feel betrayed despite Turner's 10-year tenure, his shooting struggles in Milwaukee's system, and how confidence affects his mechanics on the court. They dissect the evolving Bucks-Pacers rivalry through recent playoff battles, the infamous Oscar Tshiebwe game ball incident, and Tyrese Haliburton's villain persona in Wisconsin. East provides insider analysis on Turner's landing mechanics as a confidence indicator, while Garcia examines how the Bucks' new up-tempo style contrasts with previous rosters. The discussion covers Indiana's devastating injury crisis, championship hangovers, and whether Doc Rivers adjusted quickly enough in last year's playoff loss.
Discover what Turner's former beat writer predicts for this emotional reunion and why both fanbases remain convinced their team will dominate this matchup.
