There's a great video of an elderly British woman celebrating Margaret Thatcher's death saying something like, "Americans don't know how to hold a grudge," and it's incredibly true.
Let's all allow Dick Cheney's peaceful passing at the ripe old age of 84 to remind us of the importance and joy of speaking ill of the dead when the dead were assholes.

Was just curious, and Isaiah Jackson was the only Pacer to get a question related to Myles, and it was about performance against him.
Don’t know if it was a blackout on team history questions or what, but it’s weird to not even see a softball to Carlisle/Siakam about Myles as a person. Sheesh.

Pacers do a tribute video for Myles Turner who Rick Carlisle coached for four years and to game 7 of the NBA Finals and nobody asked him about Turner after the game? Weird to anybody else?

Not to be overlooked: Cole Anthony in for AJG in crunch time is the first real admission the AJG/GTJ 2/3 look isn’t physical enough.
Might as well have a real ball handler and let Rollins be the combo guard he’s best as.
Bucks are a starting small forward away from being elite

Um.
Bucks opponents have shot +38 free throws in two consecutive games. First time it's happen in the NBA since the 22/23 season.

Um.
Love GA channeling a little Haliburton by booing the crowd and walking off. So good

Teams throwing the double at Giannis aren’t seeing success this year. Bucks ball movement is excellent when a defense is in rotation

Between Myles Turner's interviews and some ESPN/Athletic reporting, it seems safe to say his free agency went down like this:
Pacers offered 3/~66
Turner looked elsewhere.
Bucks offered 4/107
He took the Bucks offer.
No getting around Pacers didn't offer years or AAV.

For as replay obsessed as football is, I’m still shocked spotting the ball is so imprecise and left to human interpretation.
