The Pacers have been down big too many times. There’s only so many times you can climb back into the game from being down 20 before you run out of chances.
Indiana has to keep these games closer so that they have more opportunities late to close games.

Must be nice working for ESPN. Molly keeps getting feedback on her interrupting people in the comments, yet it’s 2025 & still in First Take being annoying af. 😂

I’ll say this… in this new era of basketball, the top 5 players are Nikola Jokić, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Jayson Tatum & Anthony Edwards. I believe SGA is a superstar in the making, but to say he’s the best player, I don’t think so. He’s a great player. But I don’t think he’s better than Giannis & Jokić.

Let’s see the expectations for SGA going foward… I bet its not gonna be the same as past all time greats. Same with Giannis , Luka , and even Jokic. Murray hasn’t looked like a superstar wing in the playoffs the last couple years and Jokic can’t even get out of the 2nd round.

I’m still giving Luka the Edge as the face now that he is slimming down and he is gonna have a redemption season remember Luka when he first came in league earned his respect he is literally unguardable and is bigger then most guards his only con is defense cmon mavs didn’t wanna pay him and he was averaging 34-9-9 “overweight” as they say so let’s not forget if Luka gets a team in LA legit role players everyone will see

Espn finally hyping up the right guy! But they don’t have a choice, SGA is forcing them with his game!

the name “Shade Room” says it all. They pride themselves on shedding a negative light on others
