We kick off the show by marveling at the Indiana Pacers' impressive Game 3 victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder. Fueled by a dominant bench performance, outscoring OKC 49–18, the Pacers continue to defy expectations. The Rooster gives high praise to Indiana’s depth and grit, highlighting breakout performances from rising talents like Bennedict Mathurin. The conversation then pivots to the Washington Wizards. The Rooster draws parallels between Indiana’s approach and what he believes Washington must emulate and may already be beginning to implement. Could the Pacers' surprise success serve as a roadmap for the Wizards' rebuild?
