Setting The Pace: A Pacers Podcast

Loaded podcast for you all today! The guys dive into the Obi Toppin signing and whether or not it was a good deal for the Pacers to give Toppin $60M for the next 4-years. They then dive into how the signing impacts Jarace Walker's role and the rotation moving forward. The guys then look at the Pacers salary situation and discuss how Indiana is limited move wise in what they can do moving forward, and how teams like New York were able to make such splashy moves despite the lack of cap space.

Then, Alex and Facci discuss the latest report from Mike Scotto of Hoops Hype on teams calling about Mathurin and Walker. After that, they speculate why Andrew Nembhard wasn't mentioned in that report. After that, Alex and Facci share the news of Chris Paul signing a 1-year deal with San Antonio and why getting an extension done with Nembhard this offseason is so important...what could his restricted free agency look like next summer? Alex has a hot and bold take on it.

Lastly, the guys discuss what other moves have been made around the league, as of 9:00ish PM EST on Sunday and how it impacts the Eastern Conference.
