Ep. 58: Jamelle McMillan / Jamelle McMillan is excelling as a coach in the NBA. It wasn’t his plan, but it worked out that way. - Jamelle, 28, is the son of Pacers head coach Nate McMillan. He remembers watching his dad play growing up, and was a ball boy for Nate’s Seattle SuperSonics team. The two also worked together with USA Basketball in 2012 when Nate was an assistant. - “This game has provided so much for me and my family,” Jamelle said. - The youngest McMillan played four years of college basketball at Arizona State University (2007-11), where he averaged 7.2 points, 3.9 assists and 2.5 rebounds during his senior season as the team captain. - He then remained in hoops as a Director of Basketball Operations at Drake University, and a year later was hired on Monty Williams’ staff in New Orleans. His title was “coaching intern,” but it was a great start being in his early twenties. - After two seasons, Jamelle was promoted to player development coach and later to assistant coach, now under Pelicans coach Alvin Gentry. - This summer, Jamelle had the opportunity to serve as head coach for their Summer League team in Las Vegas. That had to be special for him. (For the record, they went 1-5.) - “This thing never stops. It’s a tough deal going through the grind of a season,” Jamelle was saying to me earlier this year.” - Because it is a grind, McMillan even takes computer coding classes and turns his attention to his passion for technology to decompress after games. But he continues to work his way up the bench. - Nate explained how he advised his son not to walk in his footsteps and coach in the NBA. It demands so much of you and your family — and is obviously very stressful. They lived through that together. - Jamelle didn’t listen, though, as things worked out following their time together with USA Basketball. Dell Demps, the Pelicans GM, offered young Jamelle a job — and it was one he could not refuse. - (I first wrote about Nate and Jamelle back in 2014.) - When the Pelicans were in Indianapolis earlier this year, I spoke with Jamelle about growing up in and NBA family and choosing to remain in it. Also, he said he didn’t even consider or ask Nate about joining his staff last summer when he was promoted to Pacers head coach. - “These guys here [with New Orleans] asked me to stay. The players. That meant a lot,” Jamelle said. - Subscribe to the Pacers Podcast on iTunes. - I welcome your questions and comments @ScottAgness on Twitter or via email. - Topics Discussed: - - * Coaching against his father - * His interest in technology and writing before hoops - * Whether he can remember watching his dad play - * How much, if at all, do they talk basketball during the season - * Whether he has any desire

You're taking too long. - Screw it, we'll just tell you: The NBA offseason is old enough for us to—wait for it—pass judgement from the comfort of our lavish (read: regular) recording studios (read: respective living rooms)! - In the latest edition of Hardwood Knocks, Andy Bailey and Dan Favale cycle through the biggest offseason winners and losers from both the Eastern and Western Conferences. We know the Oklahoma City Thunder make the cut, but are they the biggest winners of the summer thus far? Where do the Boston Celtics fall on this scale? They basically, after all, signed Gordon Hayward twice. - Has the Cleveland Cavaliers' offseason been that bad? Should San Antonio Spurs fans buy custom-made LeBron James jerseys now or wallow in the fact that Chris Paul ended up with the Houston Rockets? Are the New York Knicks the NBA's biggest laughingstock? Or does that honor belong to the Detroit Pistons? Or perhaps the Indiana Pacers? - And, finally, have the Philadelphia 76ers punched their ticket to the 2018 NBA Finals, or will they have to wait until, like, 2019 for their first championship? - We've got your shocking, and not-so-shocking, and sometimes-awful, truths about the NBA offseason right here.

Ep. 57: Georges Niang / Georges Niang, the 50th pick in the 2016 NBA Draft, still has a lot to show. His rookie season is behind him, though he didn’t get much of an opportunity nor did he make much of it. - The 6-foot-8 forward averaged 0.9 points and 0.7 rebounds in 23 appearances during the 2016-17 season where the Pacers finished 42-40. He made several trips north to Fort Wayne to play for their Development League team, the Mad Ants. And after January, Niang played a total of five minutes for the Pacers. - Summer League in Orlando was supposed to be a time for Georges to show what he can do. The first time, last summer, can be overwhelming as it comes after the draft and shortly after rookie/free agent camp. It’s a lot at once. - This time with one year under his belt Niang was ready … only to suffer a bone bruise in his left knee 87 seconds into the first game. He was then ruled out for the rest of the games. - Subscribe to the Pacers Podcast on iTunes. - I welcome your questions and comments @ScottAgness on Twitter or via email. - Topics Discussed: - - * How summer league is different this time around - * What he’s been working on this summer - * Head coach Nate McMillan’s message to him - * Having several Iowa State players on the team - * The pressure of not having his salary guaranteed - * How he, as a player, observes free agency

Ep. 56: Mike Yam on T.J. Leaf and Ike Anigbogu / The Pacers went with young talent with great potential in the 2017 NBA Draft. … That’s what a draft is all about, right? Potential. - They used their first-round pick on 6-foot-10 forward T.J. Leaf at 18. With ties to the state and city, including his father, Brad, playing at Lawrence North High School, Leaf made it clear to the Pacers that he wanted to be here. Through his agent, through reporters. And that meant something. - Leaf, who’s 20, led the 31-5 Bruins with 16.3 points and 8.2 rebounds as a freshman. - [First reaction: Pacers coach Nate McMillan on T.J. Leaf] - Pacers President Kevin Pritchard was then ecstatic to see 18-year-old big man Ike Anigbogu still available when they were up again at 47. He’s raw, and not 100 percent, but the team felt comfortable with their medical evaluations of the “physical specimen,” who’s 6-foot-10 and weighs 252 pounds. - Oh, and Anigbogu was also a Bruin for one season. - To learn more about these two, I talked with Mike Yam of the Pac-12 Network. He’s a studio host with Ashley Adamson, the former WISH-TV reporter here in Indianapolis, and he’s also the host of Give Me a Sense podcast. - Subscribe to the Pacers Podcast on iTunes. - I welcome your questions and comments @ScottAgness on Twitter or via email. - Topics Discussed: - - * Why Ike Anigbogu was a great pick at No. 47 - * What type of player Anigbogu could develop into - * T.J.

Kevin Pritchard on Paul George’s change of heart: ‘A total gut-punch’ / Pacers President of Basketball Operations Kevin Pritchard spoke
Kevin Pritchard on Paul George’s change of heart: ‘A total gut-punch’ / Pacers President of Basketball Operations Kevin Pritchard spoke with reporters after the 2017 NBA Draft late Thursday, into Friday morning. The Pacers had drafted three players, including UCLA’s T.J. Leaf at No. 18. It was his first draft with the organization as president, elevated to this role after Larry Bird decided to step down. - But for more than 17 minutes, the conversation centered around Paul George and his change of heart, according to Pritchard, who spoke candidly but was obviously frustrated. - “For me it was a gut-punch,” he said. “It was a total gut-punch because we’d had many conversations over the summer about players that we’d like to add, a little bit of the style that we’d like to play, and I was, in my opinion, very inclusive with him. And the message over the summer, up until this weekend was ‘Let’s build a winning team.’ And so when that came in that he wanted to look at another place, it was a gut-punch for us.” - With the draft now over, George remains a Pacer. Pritchard, admitting that George’s message couldn’t have come at a worse time, is still confident they will get a good deal done. - “We’re not going to make a bad deal. We want to get what we want and that’s what we pursue. We’re going to do something that we feel comfortable with. - “Right now there’s enough on the board that we feel good about, that we could pull the trigger at any time.” - Watch as Pritchard discusses the situation and what’s next: - - AUDIO:

Leaf discusses getting drafted by the Pacers - Shortly after the Pacers’ selection, head coach Nate McMillan came down to the media room to talk about Leaf’s game and what he’ll bring to the Pacers. - “He’s a very skillful big guy that can spread the floor,” McMillan said. “I think his basketball IQ is very high. His ability to spread the floor from the 3-point line. He can put the ball on the floor. He can pass the ball. His ability to stretch the floor I thought was the main thing that he did well. Defensively, he’s going to have to work in that area.” - Watch McMillan’s first comments on Leaf below: - - AUDIO:

Ep. 55: Brian Windhorst / Brian Windhorst is one of the best NBA reporters. He first started in the business with the Akron Beacon Journal, and as a young reporter he was assigned to go check out a stud basketball player with great potential. - It turned out, it was LeBron James, who attended the very same high school Windhorst attended: St. Vincent-St. Mary in Akron, Ohio. Windhorst is now a led NBA reporter for ESPN and his work appears on all of their networks, plus ESPN.com and various podcasts. - With the Cavaliers in the NBA Finals, it seems like every time I look up at my television, which is on ESPN, there is Windy. That’s why I appreciated him spending some time with me on Friday. - He continues to be a great friend and mentor to me, and for that I am thankful. - After the Cavaliers improbable 3-1 comeback in the NBA Finals last year, it was a no-brianer for Windhorst to author a book on LeBron, and his return which led to a title. “Return of the King: LeBron James, the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Greatest Comeback in NBA History“ - Subscribe to the Pacers Podcast on iTunes. - I welcome your questions and comments @ScottAgness on Twitter or via email. - Topics Discussed: - - * LeBron and fatigue - * What’s the challenge and fun in covering LeBron - * Where the Cavaliers go from here due to the Warriors’ dominance - * Paul George’s future in Indy, or value elsewhere - * Why the elite NBA reporters don’t ask questions as press conferences

C.J. Miles elects to enter free agency / C.J. Miles will decline his player option and is set to become a free agent on July 1, the Pacers’ versatile forward confirmed to VigilantSports.com on Tuesday. - This move was entirely expected considering he was set to pull in $4.772 million for the final year of a four-year deal he signed in 2014 worth $18 million. The news was first reported by Ben Gibson of 8points9seconds.com. - “If it does come to opting out, it’s not because I want to leave. It’s just solely a business decision,” Miles told VigilantSports.com last month. “It’s just solely because it would be in the best interest of myself, my family, and the people that I have around me.” - Just last offseason, Miles saw Solomon Hill ($58 million) and Ian Mahinmi ($64 million) move on from the Pacers to sign lucrative new contracts elsewhere. With New Orleans and Washington, respectively. - Miles, meanwhile, has earned an estimated $34.265 million over his 12 seasons in the NBA, according to Basketball-Reference.com. He was drafted 34th overall by Utah in 2005, and spent his first seven seasons in Salt Lake City. He then played two years in Cleveland, and the last three in Indiana. - Miles turned 30 in March, (and his birthday surprise party included ‘the illest cake of all time’.) - The Pacers have six players guaranteed to be under contract for the 2017-18 season: Paul George, Thad Young, Monta Ellis, Al Jefferson, Myles Turner, and Lance Stephenson. - The organization has decisions to make on Glenn Robinson III, Rakeem Christmas, and Joe Young by July 1; Georges Niang by July 15; and Kevin Seraphin by August 1. - WATCH: C.J. plays the piano in NBA All-Star Talent Challenge

We have a few guys that have option years that they may opt out. If they do that, can we bring them back or do we replace them with another player? - * McMillan says he is planning for next season with the belief that Paul George will be here. “Paul is under contract and I had a good conversation with Paul during our meeting. He wants the same thing that I want, the organization wants — and that’s to win. He is under contract so my plans are that we will be back with us.” - * Jeff Teague, who will be an unrestricted free agent, expressed that he really wanted to be back, according to McMillan. “After having him for a season, as I told him, he needs to be better. I think I can make him better.” - * During exit interviews, McMillan wants to hear feedback from the players. He wants to hear what worked, how they felt about his coaching, the assistants, and more. “The number one goal for us was to make the playoffs. This was not a rebuild, it was more of a reload.” - * McMillan also goes through what he wants each player to do in the offseason and how they can come back better players. - * He didn’t want to pigeonhole Myles Turner to the four or the five. “I think he can

It was the greatest halftime deficit overcome in a win by the Cavaliers, 119-114. - Three Pacers losses to the LeBron James-led Cavaliers by a total of 12 points. - Jason Smeathers, a basketball trainer with Rob Blackwell over at St. Vincent Sports Performance, joins me on the podcast to breakdown the series. Like me, he was at Bankers Life Fieldhouse for Game 3. - Smeathers is a local product, a graduate from Center Grove High School. He then went on to play one year IUPUI — with George Hill providing the assist on obtaining a scholarship — and he finished his career at IPFW. He then played two years overseas, one year in Australia and the other in Canada. - Now, he’s a keen observer of the NBA product — watching games nearly every night. - Subscribe to the Pacers Podcast on iTunes. - I welcome your questions and comments @ScottAgness on Twitter or via email. - Topics Discussed: - - * How the Pacers have played and been in every game. - * Cavaliers’ adjustments in the second half. - * Can Paul George be a No. 1 player? - * How the Pacers may have awaken the beast. - * Why Lance Stephenson is a force for good.

Ep. 48: Jermaine O’Neal / “My love for this city and this organization has not wavered.” - That’s Jermaine O’Neal, the former Pacer who was back in Indianapolis Sunday to be part of the Indiana Pacers’ celebration of the 2000s decades. - O’Neal played for seven teams, but he was at his best in Indianapolis where he finished third in the NBA MVP voting in 2004 in a season he led the team to the conference finals, and he was a six-time NBA All-Star. - “I got a chance to establish myself in a way that I can go anywhere in the country and outside of the country, and be recognized because of the base that the Indiana Pacers family extended to me. Because of the support that this city and this state gave me, that type of stuff, man, you just never forget.” - In franchise history, he ranks fifth in points (9,580), sixth in rebounds (4,933), and first in blocks (1,245). O’Neal, who’s just 38, is now a businessman in Dallas, Texas and he has two kids. - View this post on Instagram I just want to say a "BIG THANK YOU" to the @pacers for showing me and my family such a great time tonight and doing a incredible job with the All Decade Team celebration. To be considered one of the best to ever put on a pacer uniform is such a huge honor and I'm very thankful for that. I also want to say thank you to the thousands of pacer fans that were in attendance tonight for showing sooooooo much love and appreciation! It was without a doubt heart felt ️! From day one you have always made me feel like a second son and tonight wasn't anything short of that ! I wish nothing but the best for pacer organization, the city of Indianapolis, and the state of Indiana! You will always have a special place in my heart and my life! #ILookFowardToSpendingMoreTimeHere #PacerForLife!!!!!

Ep. 47: Ian Mahinmi / After four seasons with the Pacers, center Ian Mahinmi moved on to the Washington Wizards
Ep. 47: Ian Mahinmi / After four seasons with the Pacers, center Ian Mahinmi moved on to the Washington Wizards last July. He signed a four-year, $64 million deal that pays him $16 million annually. - As the Pacers rebuilt their roster and Mahinmi, among others, went elsewhere, it’s been really special to see those guys (and their significant other) remain close. - Recently, George Hill’s fiancé, Sam, C.J. Miles’ wife, Lauren, and more met in D.C. to celebrate the birthday of Alexis — Ian’s wife. - “Basketball is our job. We do what we love, but it’s also a business,” Mahinmi said. “When you spend time with teammates and people like that, I think you become a family and it becomes a brotherhood where it goes way beyond whatever you do on the court. Me and George [Hill] are like real brothers.” - In past years, Mahinmi and Hill would train together in Texas and they remain close friends today. In fact, Mahinmi’s teenage brother, Jason, lives with the Hill’s in Utah. - “It goes way beyond being teammates. It’s really family matters.” - [Mahinmi receives 2016 Teammate of the Year Award] - The challenge for him this season has been health. His appearance at Bankers Life Fieldhouse on Friday (0 points, 3 rebounds) was just his third game of the season with the Wizards. - First he suffered a partially torn left meniscus in the preseason, then returned in late November and had right knee tendinitis. In December he had platelet-rich plasma treatment on both knees before finally returning on Feb. 8. - I think you’ll enjoy this podcast catching up with Mahinmi, who appreciated Pacers fans and his time in Indy. - Subscribe to the Pacers Podcast on iTunes. - I welcome your questions and comments @ScottAgness on Twitter or via email. - Topics Discussed: - - * Emotions of facing his former team in Indianapolis. - * Maintaining relationship despite player movement. - * Seeing his close friend, George Hill, traded from his hometown team. - * Feeling part of the team while missing significant time because of injury. - * Getting settled in somewhere new.

Ep. 46: Solomon Hill / Solomon Hill was always a likable guy, going back from his first conference call after being taken at 23rd by the Pacers in the 2013 NBA Draft. He played three years with the team, and then left in free agency after the team elected to decline their fourth-year team option on his rookie deal after sub-par play. - In July, 2016, he signed with New Orleans for $48 million over four years. As the league’s television rights deal went up, salaries skyrocketed and Hill took advantage. - Before his first visit back to Bankers Life Fieldhouse, Hill had already played the Pacers twice — once in the preseason and again in New Orleans. And while he was glad to return to Indy, it evoked a lot of emotions, too. Good emotions. - “It was definitely different,” he said after the Pelicans fell to the Pacers by three. “I’m kind of just glad to not be coming back here again [this year]. A lot of emotions. I have some brothers, some guys I talk to almost on a daily basis over there.” - Here that and more in this episode. - See Also: Why Solomon Hill’s time with the Pacers is over - Subscribe to the Pacers Podcast on iTunes. - I welcome your questions and comments @ScottAgness on Twitter or via email. - Topics Discussed: - - * From out of the rotation with the Pacers to getting $48 million from New Orleans. - * Emotions returning to Indianapolis and to Bankers Life Fieldhouse. - * How it’s never personal.

Ep. 44: Katie Douglas / Katie Douglas is a homegrown talent, playing basketball at all levels right here in her home state of Indiana. First at Perry Meridian High School. Then she won a National Championship at Purdue (1999), and a WNBA Championship (2012) with the Indiana Fever. - She retired from the WNBA in 2014, playing for three teams over 14 seasons. Her body had had enough. - She has since found a new passion as a business owner. And that’s not surprising. Both of her parents were entrepreneurs and business owners, and her business is also a business owner. - Douglas is a franchisee of Orangetheory Fitness, a fresh take on fitness that focuses on heart rate training in each one-hour session. And for her, it’s 16 months in the making. - “Orangetheory Fitness is a one-hour total body workout,” Douglas explains. “We are heart rate interval-based training. We’re for all fitness levels so you can come in whether you are a professional athlete down to someone that’s never worked out.” - The goal is to be in the orange zone for 12 to 20 minutes, and there’s a scoreboard showing real-time results — much like basketball — for you to compete against yourself. Each workout involves three stations: treadmill, rowers, and a weight floor. - “You’re constantly moving and every day it’s a different workout,” she said. - As Douglas explains, she first tried it in Atlanta and really enjoyed her experience. She will soon be opening up shop on the south side of Indy, by no surprise, with her location at 1675 West Smith Valley Road in Greenwood. And their presale will go live on Friday, the 13th. - Subscribe to the Pacers Podcast on iTunes. - I welcome your questions and comments @ScottAgness on Twitter or via email. - Topics Discussed: - - * Life after basketball and finding another passion - * Keeping her own schedule, but also learning to take a break - * The concept, cost, and routine of Orangetheory Fitness - * Pros and cons of playing for your hometown team - * The Pacers’ season

Eamer, a native of Bristol, England, was just visiting but he loved the game and decided he would become a fan of whichever team won. - Indiana Pacers 90, New Jersey Nets 80 - The Pacers won, and gained a fan for life in the process. - Though he lives 4,000 miles away, Eamer calls the Pacers his favorite team — of any sport — will get looks from friends when he chooses the NBA over other sports and activities. - Eamer recently spent 17 days in Indianapolis to see his favorite team during a favorable homestand, catch a few Colts games, and to see the town showcased on FOX Sports Indiana television broadcasts. Unfortunately for him, many of the Pacers games were when Paul George sat out due to injury — and a Colts game where quarterback Andrew Luck was out. - He already has tickets and plans to attend the Pacers’ game in London against the Denver Nuggets in January. - Before he returned to England, we sat down in the Pacers gift shop to discuss the Pacers, his fandom, and following the team abroad. - Subscribe to the Pacers Podcast on iTunes. - I welcome your questions and comments @ScottAgness on Twitter or via email. - Topics Discussed: - - * Becoming a Pacers fan - * Joy and challenges of following the Pacers across the pong - * How a two-hour trip is thought of as a “journey” over there - * How playing video games adds to his fandom - * On the poor ticket-buying process for the Global Games
