Summary

Today’s Best of Features:

(00:00-17:46) – Bob Kravitz joins the show to share his thoughts on signing Pascal Siakam to a max contract extension, asks Jake and Derek if it would make sense to trade Andrew Nembhard or Bennedict Mathurin in order to get another star player in the blue and gold, states that the Pacers need to go out and get somebody that specializes in rebounding and be an enforcer like Antonio Davis or Dale Davis, and assesses how the franchise should evaluate the season.

(17:46-33:01) – Senior NBA Insider, Mike Scotto, from Hoops Hype joins Query & Company with Jake Query and Derek Schultz to share his thoughts on the season the Indiana Pacers had, weighs in on the Pascal Siakam max contract debate, lists the decisions that the front office have to make in the near future with some of their young players, and agrees with Derek that the Pacers getting rid of their first round pick in this draft for Siakam was a great decision with how weak this draft is.

(33:01-1:01:27) – Scott Agness from Fieldhouse Files and 1075thefan.com joins Jake and Derek to reveal his thoughts on people complaining about the job that Christie Sides has done with Caitlin Clark to start her rookie year, tries to provide a player comparison for Jarace Walker if he develops into the player that the Pacers hope he can be, and then examines the back half of the roster with the two-way contracts since the Pacers have three second round picks.

0:00.0	Joining us now on the Carex Auto Center guest line.
0:04.6	Bob Cravitz, of course, longtime sports writer in Indianapolis.
0:08.3	At B. Kravitz is where you can find him on X or Twitter, whichever way you would like to refer to it.
0:14.1	And then, of course, Bob Kravitz.com, where you can read his substack articles.
0:17.9	Bob will begin with this.
0:19.3	We had a long discussion yesterday and I want your
0:21.7	thought on it. I understand and I know it's going to happen that the Pacers are going to
0:28.8	resign Pascal Seaccom. I mean, I would be stunned if that doesn't happen. And I mean this as
0:33.8	and look, I know he's a great player. I do. I don't know from a finance, like if he is getting
0:39.2	a five-year max contract, I don't know that that's the slam dunk that people think it is, but I have
0:45.0	a feeling you're going to disagree. Yeah, I do disagree. I think, look, you know, 30 years old,
0:51.2	that's when things start to happen. But I think he's a guy that he came to basketball late.
0:57.3	He doesn't have a lot of mileage on him.
0:59.5	I think that's something you need to factor in.
1:02.4	To me, if you can get three really good years out of him, maybe four, that would be tremendous.
1:09.2	I just think, you know, it's weird.
1:12.3	Even if he doesn't stay, I still think the trade was a win.
1:16.0	I would agree with that.
1:17.3	Yeah, but I think it's a slam dunk.
1:21.2	I think you put him in Halliburton together and maybe get a third guy in here.
1:26.3	However, that's going to work financially.
1:29.6	You know, a lot of this is what is Herb Simon willing to do, and back in the day, he did go
