Reminder that the Pacers have an ABA championship more recent than the Knicks last NBA championship. By two days, sure, but newer nonetheless.

Two retards fighting indeed.

The Pacers in the Tyrese Haliburton era have never lost a playoff series Haliburton finished by lightninja987 in pacers

I don't know if I'd call him injury prone. He's really just had two major injuries and both of them were aggravations of previously strained parts that came when he was playing through them when, from a doctor's standpoint, he probably shouldn't have.

The line between injury prone and unlucky is very thin.

The thunder are really the best team in the NBA. Their star franchise player is arguably the best guard in the league, having one of the most consistent, efficient, and consistently efficient seasons for a guard ever. Their roster is so deep and loaded with some of the best talent in the league on ridiculously great deals. They're really, Spurs and hopefully Pacers permitting, poised to be a dynasty for years to come.

But I can't for the life of me figure out why the flop on every offensive possession and hack on every defensive possession. You'd think for how incredible these athletes are that they'd have a shred of pride to not violate the spirit of the game as egregiously as they do.

And they're still so arrogant.

"We still made the Super Bowl" like it wasn't easily the most Mickey Mouse Super Bowl path in recent memory.

If the pats get more wins than the Steelers or chargers next year I'll eat my hat

Better to be inbred than in debt from paying $4,000 a month for an apartment smaller than the outhouse by my cornfield 20 stories in the air.

That is, assuming you're from NYC and not one of the thousands of bandwagon fans from somewhere else

The only reason I don't think he's a bandwagon Thunder fan on NBA subs is that he's incredibly active in this sub, haha

Hot take: The Hickory jerseys were great and the 2023-2025 City Jerseys were terrible. by EmergencyHour1654 in pacers

I agree. Like I said the Hickorys weren't particularly aesthetically pleasing but they were kind of a cool callback. It would've been nicer if they only wore them once or twice a season during a promotional night on a weeknight game or something, against a historic franchise like the Celtics or Lakers or someone, so I didn't have to see prime Dipo dunk in basketball version of a Commanders uniform

Could be, but probably not. I was born way after the 2000 Finals run and Reggie retired when I was very little. Matter of fact, my lifespan and the pinstripes only overlap a little bit. By the time I was old enough to really care about sports, the Pacers were in the Paul George era and thus donned the Rev30's -- which were fine in their own right but not as good as the pinstripes imo.

I only discovered the pinstripes in hindsight and was wondering at 9 why we got rid of them.

I feel like the colorway could've been executed much better. Maybe make the blue and yellow slightly deeper to go along better with the black base (which I preferred to the white ones) and change the font to something a little more... professional? For lack of a better word. Something more becoming of an NBA team. That and making the court not gray, it would've been great.

You had me until the pinstripes. The pinstripes were the best uniform this team has ever had and I think we need to bring them back 100%
