Would love to be wrong, but this feels like one of those seasons that’s never going to quite get off the ground.
Caitlin Clark had never been injured before this season.
Now, she's suffered four injuries in the past three months.

Teary-eyed Caitlin Clark suffers 4th injury in 3 months. Fever have learned to play without her, may have to again
Caitlin Clark left Indiana's win against Connecticut late in the fourth with what looked to be her fourth muscle injury of the season.

Forced @derekschultz.bsky.social to join me and yap about the Pacers offseason. We got into Turner's departure before looking at the additions the Pacers have made. Plus, rants about insane tweets and bad uses of stats.

There was an incredibly distressing video after the Thunder won the championship where it became clear that none of the Zoomers on the team knew how to open a bottle of champagne, (and had to ask a guy in his 30s for help.) Very distressing, needed to write about the Partying Gap in our generations.

When I talked to Pacers players Saturday night about when they realized they could be this good, one of them thought back to 2022. Another 2023, and a 3rd mentioned last year.

The Pacers didn't just beat a 64-win team, they stomped them. No 64-win team had been eliminated before the Conference Finals in a series shorter than 6 games before.

9-3 since The Charlotte Debacle. A much better basketball team this past month.
By god, the Pacers are over .500. They're 19-18, first winning record since...1-0. They've had to grind to get here.
They beat a bad, banged up team. Normally, not a big deal. But Pacers have earned skeptics for that type of game. Haliburton and Mathurin led the scoring. Free throws were important.
