1). Adam

For the Pacers to win this series, who needs to be more vital and productive? Obi Toppin/Jalen Smith/TJ McConnell or someone else?? Thanks so much! Love the podcast and content

2). DJ Davis — loaded question lol

Who will defend Dame?

Who will defend Giannis?

How much scoring will Hali need?

Can Myles keep up his intensity and improve offense?

How can the Pacers keep their energy and intensity the whole series?

Thoughts on Beasley comments?

3). Josh

Do you think Myles will feed off of the Hawks game + ambitions to be back in playoffs and continue his hot streak?

Does Haliburton look to score first instead of pass? (Depending on how the supporting cast of pacers are performing) I think if Myles + Siakam keep it up we good.

4). Ry

What will Giannis average FT attempts be? How do the Pacers fight through this incredible glaring bias against them? Why does Ty seem afraid to shoot the ball all of the sudden?

5). DeJaun Foster

I love Nesmith’s game! Is it possible a strong playoff showing can further raise his ceiling and role as a player or is his role pretty much cemented going forward?

6). David Cole

Who do you think are the X-Factors for the series and what is the most important 1-on-1 matchup you’re watching?

Also, what do you think goes right/wrong if the Bucks win/lose this series? Same for the Pacers.

7). Abeas1

During the season, Ty had very prolifc scoring games vs. the Bucks. With his recent lull in scoring, do you think that this could hamper the Pacers' potential to win the series? Will this also open up more opportunities for minutes for TJ bc of his recent boost in scoring numbers? Same question for Nembhard.
