Welcome!

The Pacers board just grew by an estimated 25% with your arrival. :-p

Been a while since I've been here on a game thread. Is "tradition" not a thing anymore?

I forget who it was that did the tradition.

Bring it back?

I'm kind of weirdly excited to see Darren Collison again. Don't ask me why.

Oladipo and Collison have been great.

Turner and Oladipo off to good starts. Curious to see who gets minutes off the bench.
