Every other game he's been good and this is a down one. The history of point guards his age is not great but he's also a very unusual player.

T.J. McConnell is -7 in 1 minute. Good thing he didn't start, the Pacers are on pace to lose by 336 points if he plays the entire game.

I thought Andrew Nembhard was the best player in the NBA.

I was wrong.

Aaron Nesmith is the best player in the NBA.

I go Nets since Brandon Miller is the best player among the three teams.

I'd go Nets. Hield and Schroeder are serious NBA players. But all of them are poor.

Which of these is the worst lineup the Pacers have played:

Charlotte: Miller-Micic-Martin-Green-Richardson-Jeffries-Wong-Simpson

Brooklyn: Johnson-Martin-Clowney-Williams-Claxton-Wilson-Evbuomwan-Sharpe

Golden State: Schroeder-Hield-TJD-Waters-Moody-Looney-Anderson

Going for a third celebration for winning the Game Above Sports Bowl. You wouldn’t get this if the college football postseason made any sense.

The best of the best: Pacers by their numbers A look at the best Pacer to wear each number

Thomas Bryant will wear No. 3 for the Pacers. George Hill is the best player to wear it for the Pacers.

Anytime George Hill is mentioned it must be pointed out he was better than Kawhi Leonard the first two seasons after the trade.

Golden State Valkyries pick Temi Fagbenle from Indiana Fever in expansion draft Fagbenle was a strong, versatile forward in the games she could play for the Fever this year, working well with Fever rookie Caitlin Clark.

I assume the Fever were thinking an expansion team wouldn't be interested in a 32-year-old Femi Fagbenle with her injury history.

It is hard to win NBA games when you don’t play defense.

This IHSAA transfer story is so unfair - to three kids in two different families - and has me so upset, I begged Mt. Vernon’s principal to do the right thing.

Here’s how that went.

Story is open. I've got nothing to hide, and don't want a penny in subs for this one. Just want these kids to be OK.

Does the Hope plumber pull a stuffed animal out of a toilet and give it to a child?

You think about this after seeing the commercial 400 times on Pacers games.

Colts vs. Lions thoughts: Anthony Richardson gets little help from teammates Anthony Richardson stats look terrible, but between offensive line, tight end and injury issues, he has little chance to succeed.

Colts make too many mistakes in 24-6 loss to Lions The result was exactly what we expected: Lions are one of the best teams in the NFL and the Colts make too many mistakes

Shane Steichen: 'Penalties hurt us. Season-high 10 penalties for 75 yards. That's on me. When you're 1st and 20, 2nd and 20, those are tough situations. That starts with me.'

Anthony Richardson on pace for 350 rushing yards on 30 carries. But the Lions will likely run a few plays so those numbers are slightly exaggerated.
