Episode Details

The Pacers have now lost eight straight games for the second time this season, surrendering 140-plus points to both Boston and Miami over a brutal weekend stretch. Despite moments of competitive play, Indiana once again couldn’t sustain defensive stops or close games when it mattered most. There were a few bright spots: Aaron Nesmith returned to the lineup in Miami after missing time since mid-November, and Andrew Nembhard dished out a career-high 16 assists in the loss to the Heat. But the bigger picture remains troubling as the Pacers continue to give up massive scoring nights while struggling to string together consistent stretches on both ends. Brad and Ryan break down what’s gone wrong during this skid, what we are seeing from the young guys like Furphy/Walker/Mathurin, and what the Pacers need to show in their final two games as they close out a memorable 2025.
