Tyrese Haliburton’s Cookie Comeback?

Tyrese Haliburton just got real about his Achilles rehab—and his sweet tooth. He’s up 30 pounds since his injury, partly from bulking up, partly from drowning his sorrows in cookies and ice cream. Tyrese says the extra weight is intentional (mostly), hoping to come back stronger and more physical. He’s back on the court, but admits he’s still got a ways to go before he’s game-ready. Pacers fans, next season could be wild! #Fitness #TyreseHaliburton #Pacers

Hali’s Cinderella Run Cut Short in Game 7

Can’t stop thinking about Tyrese “Hali” Haliburton’s wild journey this season. From zero-star recruit to leading the Pacers to the Finals, his rise was unreal. But that Achilles tear in Game 7 vs. OKC? Heartbreaking. The whole NBA world wonders—if Hali stayed healthy, would Indy have shocked the Thunder and lifted the trophy? His playoff run flipped the script on his “overrated” label and put him in elite PG talks. What a story! #Sports #Basketball #Pacers

Pacers vs Celtics: Queta’s Elbow Sparks Debate

Did anyone else catch that wild moment in the Pacers vs Celtics game? Big man Neemias Queta caught Isaiah Jackson with not one, but two elbows to the head early on, forcing Jackson out with a concussion. Coach Carlisle isn’t holding back—he’s calling for the league to review what he called a 'dangerous' play. Was it intentional or just a heated rivalry moment? Let’s hear your takes, Pacers and Celtics fans! #Sports #Basketball #Pacers

Wiseman Gets Final Shot with Pacers

Big Jim Wiseman, once hyped as the Warriors’ next big thing, is back on a 10-day with the Pacers—his third shot with Indy since the offseason. After injuries and stints with the Dubs and Raptors, this could be his last real chance to prove he belongs in the league. With the Pacers struggling and still searching for a long-term center, can Wiseman finally deliver on his potential, or is this the end of the road? #Sports #Basketball #Pacers

Pacers embarrassed by bottom-feeder Wizards

Absolute meltdown at Gainbridge! The Pacers just got bullied by the league’s punching bag—down by 22 to the Wizards? That’s not just a loss, that’s a full-on faceplant. Siakam vanished when we needed him most, and the whole squad looked like they were running in quicksand. Bagley III turned into a monster on the glass while our guys just watched. This is rock bottom, Indy. How much more of this pain can we take before something changes? #Sports #Basketball #Pacers

Embiid crushes Pacers’ milestone dreams

Pacers Nation, how do you let Embiid drop 39 on your head when you’re fighting for Carlisle’s 1,000th win? That fourth quarter was a meltdown—no killer instinct, no clutch shooting, and Mathurin just disappeared when we needed him most. Watching G League grinder Ethan Thompson foul out on some brutal calls stung, but the refs didn’t lose us this one—the lack of defense and ice-cold shooting did. Embiid looked like the final boss, and we just weren’t ready. Who else is tired of seeing Indy fold late? #Sports #Basketball #Pacers

Hali’s Comeback: Pacers Fans, Hold the Faith!

Tough break for the Pacers—losing Hali to that Achilles tear in Game 7 against the Thunder was a gut punch, especially with Myles Turner heading to the Bucks right after. But here’s a silver lining: Tyrese “Hali” Haliburton is grinding through rehab, leaning on fellow stars like Tatum and Murray for support. He’s got that fire to return strong next season. Do you think Hali can bounce back like KD, or will this injury change his game for good? #Sports #Basketball #Pacers

Why the Gafford trade could backfire

Trading for Daniel Gafford screams desperation move. The big man's barely cracking Dallas's rotation, averaging career-low numbers, and dealing with ankle issues. That's not the reliable pick-and-roll partner Haliburton needs when he returns from his Achilles tear. After nearly reaching the mountaintop last season, the Pacers deserve better than injury-prone scraps. Gafford's potential is there, but his availability isn't. Indiana needs a rock-solid center who can stay healthy and complement their young core's championship window. This feels like settling when they should be swinging for the fences. What center would you target instead? #Sports #Basketball #Pacers

Despite the Loss to the Pacers, Westbrook Drops a 24–13–14 Triple-Double

The Kings fell 116–105 to the Pacers in Indianapolis, but Russell Westbrook turned in a vintage line: 24 PTS, 13 REB, 14 AST on 10/16 FG, 2/3 3PT, 2/4 FT, plus 2 STL and 1 BLK in 40 minutes. Indiana closed on a late run to seal it, but Russ kept Sacramento in it with downhill pressure and kick-outs all night. #NBA #Kings #Pacers #RussellWestbrook #TripleDouble #StatLine #NBATalk

Nembhard just went nuclear in clutch time

Nembhard just went absolutely bonkers when it mattered most! This team had me pulling my hair out after blowing that 19-point lead, but then our point guard channeled his inner Damian Lillard. Those clutch threes in the final minutes? Stone cold killer mode activated. Westbrook can keep his empty stats – 207 triple-doubles mean nothing when you're taking Ls. Nembhard showed why he's our true floor general with that ice-cold finish. Who else thinks it's time to officially crown him our go-to closer? #Sports #Basketball #Pacers
