INDY is BACK…and so is Michael (and Grace)

Alex Golden is joined by longtime Pacers fan Michael—with a brief appearance from his lovely girlfriend, Grace—for a fun conversation about all things Indiana Pacers! Michael shares his thoughts on the Pacers' offseason moves and his expectations for the upcoming season, including what he likes about the roster and where he still has concerns. He also tells Alex about his experience meeting Tyrese Haliburton at Fanatics Fest, what that moment was like and why Tyrese has become such a special player for Pacers fans. Of course, no conversation with Michael would be complete without discussing his love for Micah Potter! The guys revisit Indiana's decision to move on from Potter and what Michael thinks about the direction the Pacers took with their frontcourt. From there, Alex and Michael get into the basketball. Which teams in the Eastern Conference present the toughest matchups for Indiana? What are the Pacers' biggest strengths and weaknesses? And most importantly, how much does the addition of Ivica Zubac help address some of the issues that have hurt Indiana in the past? Michael also shares what he's most excited to see this season and why expectations are so high for this Pacers team. A fun, fan-driven episode of Setting The Pace featuring Pacers talk, plenty of laughs, Michael's return to the podcast and a special cameo from Grace!
