I think Obi can have a chance to win 6th man of the year….
How is the NBA even thinking about expansion teams….Nets and Wizards are so terrible. 10 years in tanking mode.
I sure hope we don't win out
Hi Tony! Great Obi game. He was very loud in his presence and impact. Although the competition wasn't competitive I still enjoyed his play. I'm new to pacers FC and my favorite obi game currently would be last year 03/17/25 against the twolves. Do you have a favorite obi game or performance? Thanks
I've seen OBi listed at both 6'9" and 6'10" but either way he's a great player to have coming off the bench. So we have McConnell, Toppin, and??? Who is going to be that third guy matching Mathurins production ? We need somebody who can give 15-20 consistently.
OBIIIII!!!!
I like Obi too but I think that means we shouldn't draft Boozer unless Pascal can move to SF.
Obi is basically reaching a starter level of play. Having a guy like that who is willing to play his role is invaluable. His contract is a steal at this point.
Walker’s knuckle-ball / hook / floater shot is really something. Somebody help him with his shot plz.
We def take Obi for granted. 💯. His combination of abilities, including his unselfishness and professionalism, is so rare. He’s a championship roster piece.
