On today's 1,000th episode of Setting The Pace, the guys open up by reflecting on the ride to their 1,000th episode quickly before diving into the bad loss on Friday night. Alex and Facci highlight the way Indiana closed out quarters, how the Pacers Big 3 got dominated by the Pelicans Big 2...how poorly Myles Turner has played since his great opening night performance against Detroit, Tyrese Haliburton's continued struggles and inability to shake free from his 3PT shooting slump, Mathurin and Sheppard stepping up with bigger roles, Sheppard's career night and injuries piling up.

The guys give out player awards for the game: The Mel Daniels MVP Award and the Feisty Foster Player of the Award. No Players qualified for the Reggie Miller Clutch Player of the Game.

At the end of the show, the guys play video messages sent in from loyal listeners to celebrate the 1,000th episode of Setting The Pace.
