Tyrese and Myles come up clutch in Pacers win over the Cavs in the first in-season tournament game! (Game Recap) Nov 06, 2023

Show notes

Alex and Facci are back to discuss the Pacers incredible victory over Cleveland in the first ever in-season tournament game! The courts were blue, with yellow down the middle, a huge in-season tournament trophy with the words "INDY" plastered on top. The players were sliding on the court design but that didn't impact how the game played out. Myles Turner and Tyrese Haliburton, along with the help of Buddy Hield, Bruce Brown, Aaron Nesmith and other Pacers players took care of business as the Cavaliers were healthy for the first time this season. Great game, great atmosphere. Kudos to the fan base for providing that homecourt advantage.
