01:10He's done a good job really manning the point here for the Pacers
01:14Hey, I took it all the way missed it, but the follow dunk by Freeman was great. It was great at Oklahoma
01:20I'm not sure how everyone passed on it
01:24And it's for a good part of the season he played like an all-star. That's what's about in a win?
01:33Raves connects on the two-pointer
01:36Franchise player Tyrese Halliburton for the Pacers that you mentioned and also Jason Tatum for the Boston Celtics
01:42With those guys being out in the Celtics making trades
01:47Pelicans looking for their first win
01:49Indiana has split its four games
01:52Wheeler leaning in banks at home Phillip Wheeler played five games. You know Dave one of the things that AJ mentioned was that
02:00He was just playing against Jeremiah Fierce
02:04Reclassed up

02:31Plays 54 games in the NBA after going undrafted in 2022 count the basket
02:40Shot clock at seven
02:42Alexander puts it on the floor challenges Wheeler and banks it in
02:45I'm not even going to consider that he was injured
02:49At the beginning of the playoffs it may have even been a play-in game during that season
02:55So he definitely became my guy okay during summer league. I want to make sure that was the time when it happened
02:59It's not just about who is Cory's guy. It's the timing. It's one of the genesis of becoming Cory's guy
03:06You get it
03:08Six-point lead for Indiana a minute gone by here in the second quarter
03:12Now Fierce couldn't get that one to fall
03:16Ashworth wide open
03:19Drains a three
03:20Similar to tj mcconnell who comes off the bench for the pacers
03:24Of course the base is one of the many teams now that played 94 feet on every possession hunter dickinson with the basket and a foul
03:32He'll go to the line to try college basketball the last handful of years
03:35Is there a role for him at this level?
03:37I think so and the reason I believe so is because the
03:41The thing that hampers hunter at the next level is lateral quickness of being able to hunter dickson
03:45Also made a significant amount of money in nil over the last three seasons
03:50So when it's all said and done
03:53It may have been the right move
03:55And what's interesting about dickinson is fierce gets the tip in
03:58As if hunter dickinson doesn't make it in the nba and is playing in the g league
04:04Fears puts it on the floor again dribbles behind the back up one foot misses the foul line j dickinson
04:10A stick back to be a part of this draft
04:16Seventh overall selection
04:19Three-pointer by tomenaga
04:22Indiana's taken 17 threes already made five 17 of their 30
04:29Attempts count the basket and one an accidental hoop as freeman got hacked by shoemate the ball went in the basket
04:37Really two terrific seasons conference finals last year nba finals this year
04:42Are they good enough without halliburton and turner to be a major factor?
04:46I'm not sure they will be an eastern conference finals
04:51My welcome to the nba moment

04:56Bricks puts it on the floor and is able to get that one to fall over the outstretched arm of boeheim
05:05And it's a pacer timeout, but in today's game you can play with multiple ball handles on the floor
05:10You just want to see if you can find a way to get it into your rotation
05:13Best pass again by dennis this time to freeman for the dunk
05:17Turnover
05:18Ashwood had it blocked at the buzzer
05:20A bucket to open the third dennis another good look and another basket inside by freeman
05:27Into the floor it just puts more responsibility on each and every one of those guys
05:31We know tj mcconnell is going to continue to do what he does coming off the bench
05:37Chance to sit with
05:39Pelicans head coach will be free
05:42As well as troy weaver and joe dumars watching last earlier this week
05:46He's getting a great chance to talk strategy with willie
05:53And i'm going to figure out if that was the case indeed go back and check his credit card receipts for 2019
05:58I will say that there most likely is no paper trail of me actually buying a ticket
06:03Meanwhile robert baker who had 10 points in the second quarter makes a great defensive play and then on the other end drains his third three-pointer
06:11He's missed six in a row since as brooks gets the basket in transition
06:20And jeff and gundy with the great job that they did
06:23With that defensive culture with the clippers. How does he fit in there?
06:27I think brad gives an effort defensively, but i don't think he's an easy win over the defensive side either
06:34Driving and slamming as robert baker who has been the star of this game
06:38We've seen that throughout this game
06:42Fearless with the drop yeah 12 first half points for wheeler
06:46With chase hunter with the other 29 teams to try to find the right training camp situation for you
06:51Tominaga with four seconds left in the corner launches the three missed it there's baker
06:59How much is awareness basketball iq understanding the game up what where is that in terms of your evaluation tool
07:07I can't play this person because i can't trust them with the basketball and that's huge because again
07:14There are guys making 60 billion dollars
07:17Tominaga hit the deck after he missed the shot so numbers for new orleans alexander with the lob and the basket by anderson plus a foul
07:27And again doing it for an organization that doesn't worry about your draft house
07:32Basket by baker and a foul but that the pacers absolutely
07:39Want to as a big part of their team going forward just signed a 44 billion dollar deal so he is absolutely a part of their team
07:45Moving pool three pointer from james
07:51Passing by the pelicans fears first anderson next in the slam by baker
07:56Foul on the other end james sliding to the floor is currently a player at michigan state
08:02James driving thought he was fouled fears just
08:05Stepped away from him and then you see the speed of fears up the floor
08:09Got the rebound of the putback
08:11Solid progression after his first year the second summer league have you considered what he was able to do
08:17Two nights ago last night almost not sure which one it was all the nights start to come together
08:21They don't
08:24Triple J
08:26Corey dave i would also say that bronnie just seems more at ease and more comfortable in general
08:32You know he'll have to make plays and run the team and we've seen certainly some of that
08:36But he understands the way he's going to get minutes in the nba is being a menace on defense
08:41And i made the statement last year the reason being because they're half the population doesn't think that he belongs in the nba
08:48And what i love most is the fact that he's showing that he can be a productive nba for several years
08:54The lakers add deandre ayton obviously luka donchich will have his first full season in los angeles
09:00Should the lakers should we consider the lakers a contender as bayheim hits a three
09:04I do believe that they are a contender because you have two of the best
09:07What's the contact he was just going for offensive rebound?
09:09Alexander bump count the basket and one nice attack by trey alexander the very few
09:18high draft picks
09:20Let's see clipper for the kings
09:23Not drafted nearly as high as reams able to knock down the three i think with their big three
