  [SPEAKER_03]: Thank you so much for joining us.
• 1:55
  [SPEAKER_03]: My friends and I will be back tomorrow and the next day and the next day and the day after that.
• 2:02
  [SPEAKER_03]: And here's what happened on Wednesday, February 11th, 2026.
• 2:06
  [SPEAKER_03]: The Indiana Pacers are trying to figure this tension thing out.
• 2:10
  [SPEAKER_03]: They had the right idea.
• 2:11
  [SPEAKER_03]: No Pascal Siocca, I'm no Andrew Nimhard, no TJ McConnell, no Aaron Neesmith, and no Zubats.
• 2:18
  [SPEAKER_03]: But this is the Pacers, and they don't do losing well.
• 2:21
  [SPEAKER_03]: So they left Brooklyn with a 115 110 win, and are no longer in the bottom three of the NBA.
• 2:28
  [SPEAKER_03]: And of course the bottom three get the best odds for the number one pick or a top four pick.
• 2:33
  [SPEAKER_03]: the NBA draft lottery is May 10th and will rather have said on his podcast on Tuesday that this could be the most important day in Pacer's history.
• 2:43
  [SPEAKER_03]: And he's not wrong.
• 2:45
  [SPEAKER_03]: Oh well, there were a lot of positive signs.
• 2:48
  [SPEAKER_03]: For the franchise in the win, Geras Walker 23 points, Cam Jones started and finished with 11 points in six assists, Taylor and Peter scored 14 and the bench contributed 57 points to the 15th win of the season.
• 3:01
  [SPEAKER_03]: Also Kobe Brown, who came along with Zubotz and the mother and trade, made his debut and had eight points in six rebounds.
• 3:08
  [SPEAKER_03]: The net's led by 16 midway through the third, I figured mission accomplished and turned
• 3:16
  [SPEAKER_03]: So now instead of a 14% chance of getting the first pick, the odds fall to 12.5% as the fourth worst, they now have a 48.1% chance of retaining a top four pick.
• 3:30
  [SPEAKER_03]: And as I do every so often on Greg and his friend's talk sports, I visit tankathon to see what the computers predict will happen with the Pacers on the May 10th
• 3:46
  [SPEAKER_03]: Will Rutherford and I talked about Booser on today's strictly biased podcast, how he'd be the exact right fit for this team.
• 3:55
  [SPEAKER_03]: Also, Benedict Mather and had 16 points off the bench in his Clippers debut.
• 3:59
  [SPEAKER_03]: He went 9 for 10 from the file line in a 105 102 upset of the rockets.
• 4:16
  [SPEAKER_03]: The booms survived a late attempt to win it by former boom and pace or rage a dentist finished with a game high 47 and was incredible.
• 4:25
  [SPEAKER_03]: All five boom players were in double figures led by Cameron held just 34.
• 4:29
  [SPEAKER_03]: I'd never heard of him before last week.
• 4:31
  [SPEAKER_03]: J. Lynn Slawson finished with 29.
• 4:33
  [SPEAKER_03]: Adise Tony 19 points in 44 minutes.
• 4:36
  [SPEAKER_03]: MJ Araldi and gave McLaughlin scored 18 a piece for noblesville who shot 56% from the field 70% from
• 4:45
  [SPEAKER_03]: the two point range.
• 4:46
  [SPEAKER_03]: Noblesville is now in a five way tie for second place in the east with 13 wins as the team heads for the all-star break.
• 4:54
  [SPEAKER_03]: Oceola has 14 wins.
• 4:56
  [SPEAKER_03]: The boom Toronto Greensboro Cleveland and Long Island all have 13.
• 5:02
  [SPEAKER_03]: Here is my friend Aaron Pitman to talk about the first official season of the Noblesville boom and how that's grown.
• 5:14
  [SPEAKER_01]: Well, absolutely, you put a number of kids in the arena and the seats instead of adults that have for a lack of a better term, a higher pitched voice and you let them scream at the top of their lungs.
• 5:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's what you get.
• 5:29
  [SPEAKER_03]: Every basket at the.
• 5:31
  [SPEAKER_01]: Absolutely.
• 5:32
  [SPEAKER_03]: I was excited about every basket.
• 5:33
  [SPEAKER_03]: It was pretty cool.
• 5:34
  [SPEAKER_03]: I think I would have had a headache though.
• 5:36
  [SPEAKER_01]: Absolutely.
• 5:37
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think I did believe with the headache.
• 5:38
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think everybody around me loved with the headache.
• 5:40
  [SPEAKER_01]: But you know what, that's what makes it fun.
• 5:43
  [SPEAKER_03]: Rade J. Dennis had a shot at the buzzer that missed, but he did score 47 points.
• 5:48
  [SPEAKER_03]: Did you have a hard time not announcing his name like he was stolen the team?
• 5:53
  [SPEAKER_01]: Well, so Rade J actually was only on the team for about the first month of the season and if memory serves me correct, he was released from the Pacers and the boom in mid December.
• 6:07
  [SPEAKER_01]: But man, he came out on fire.
• 6:09
  [SPEAKER_01]: He had two quick threes and then another where his foot was barely on the line.
• 6:14
  [SPEAKER_01]: So I mean, we're talking nine points of then the first three minutes of the game and and every time he was out on the floor today, he just couldn't miss.
• 6:24
  [SPEAKER_01]: Obviously, as you mentioned a moment ago, 47 points for Ray J.
• 6:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: He was looking to spoil the party for the boom and make it a.
• 6:32
  [SPEAKER_01]: a big homecoming for him, but thankfully at the end of the game of the boom we're able to have one last defensive stop and get the one point win here at home.
• 6:43
  [SPEAKER_03]: And Hill Drith and Sloth in 63 combined points.
• 6:46
  [SPEAKER_03]: I got it.
• 6:46
  [SPEAKER_03]: Beyond us, I had never heard of Hill Drith till earlier this week.
• 6:50
  [SPEAKER_01]: Can Hill Drith, he's actually from from England, and he's a huge soccer guy.
• 6:57
  [SPEAKER_01]: If you ask him who his favorite team is, he'll tell you it's Chelsea, so don't don't say man
• 7:02
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's definitely, he's a Chelsea guy, he has come on strong in the absence of the two way guys.
• 7:09
  [SPEAKER_01]: The boom actually only played seven players today because for the rotation guys for the boom were actually in Brooklyn last night playing for the Pacers and their wins.
• 7:18
  [SPEAKER_01]: So yeah, absolutely.
• 7:21
  [SPEAKER_01]: He's made the most of his opportunity.
• 7:24
  [SPEAKER_01]: He is he's been scoring at will.
• 7:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: He is not afraid to drive to the ball to the basket.
• 7:29
  [SPEAKER_01]: And, you know, it's created a lot of opportunity for him to be able to see some significant minutes and get the opportunity to prove that he's a leader of this team.
• 7:40
  [SPEAKER_03]: All right, Aaron, state of the franchise this year's team really slow start now right in the playoff hunt.
• 7:48
  [SPEAKER_03]: They're actually in a five-way tie for second place when you look at it from the win perspective.
• 7:54
  [SPEAKER_03]: One game behind Oceola who has 14 wins, five teams with 13, they've really put themselves in a good position here to make a playoff from.
• 8:02
  [SPEAKER_01]: Absolutely.
• 8:02
  [SPEAKER_01]: So and to make matters even more entertaining, uh, Cleveland and Raptors 905, they play this evening.
• 8:11
  [SPEAKER_01]: So one of those teams will have an additional loss.
• 8:13
  [SPEAKER_01]: They both have 13 wins on the season.
• 8:16
  [SPEAKER_01]: The boom, they're actually done right now because the all-star break is this weekend in Los Angeles.
• 8:22
  [SPEAKER_01]: So there'll be off until the 19th win, they'll actually face the Cleveland charge and back to back tonight.
• 8:29
  [SPEAKER_01]: So they're going to have an opportunity to not only stay in the thick of the playoff hunt,
• 8:35
  [SPEAKER_01]: But essentially take command of potentially second or even third place in the eastern conference standings and with the way this works in the eastern conference they have that opportunity to host some playoff games come late March early April.
• 8:53
  [SPEAKER_01]: So a lot a lot to be determined within the next a couple weeks with Cleveland coming to town, but also.
• 9:00
  [SPEAKER_01]: some very winnable games for for the boom as we move forward.
• 9:05
  [SPEAKER_01]: So it's going to be an exciting end to the season after this all star break.
• 9:10
  [SPEAKER_01]: If you haven't been to a boom game yet, you haven't been to the arena at innovation mile I finally suggest you get tickets.
• 9:17
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's an inexpensive form of entertainment for the night, $17.
• 9:20
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'll get you into the arena and there's so much excitement going on beyond just the game.
• 9:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's just, it's a lot of fun.
• 9:28

• 12:58
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it's a really good men's team that's really, a lot of work through a lot of adversity this year and a lot of injuries they've had to deal with and through the first part of the year,
• 13:17
  [SPEAKER_00]: mismatch and with his lineups and they finally have kind of settled on them.
• 13:24
  [SPEAKER_00]: starting five that he's been able to to roll out nightly and it's starting to show these guys are really playing the best ball of their season, which you know we're three games left in the regular season, which is you know the time you want that to happen and then they're they're really hitting their stride right now.
• 13:44
  [SPEAKER_03]: Typical of a tonical team, did they peek at the right time?
• 13:48
  [SPEAKER_00]: most years around.
• 13:50
  [SPEAKER_00]: It did just a lot of the pens on how the season goes and the injury type of thing, but yeah, this has been, this is exactly what they work for every year.
• 14:01
  [SPEAKER_00]: I would say this has not been an atypical season because of all the injuries.
• 14:08
  [SPEAKER_00]: Obviously, they have not had looked brown for a second.
• 14:13
  [SPEAKER_00]: at all this year, I got to talk to Luke's dad last night a little bit while the game was going on and I just feel I feel for that kid, man.
• 14:23
  [SPEAKER_00]: He's put so much heart and soul and effort in time into being who he became as a high school player and and what he did is at the college level when he could do it and you know his body just has had enough basketball and it's stuff
• 14:41
  [SPEAKER_00]: I'm sure for him to sit on the bench and watch what's going on, but man, he's been a team guy and he's been in the sister coach for the Wildcats this year and telling you what right now these guys are shooting the ball like Luke Brown.
• 14:55
  [SPEAKER_00]: I don't know if he's being a shooting coach for him or not, but they shot 61% last night against Mount Vernon for the game.
• 15:05
  [SPEAKER_00]: 61% and shot hit 11 of 15 three pointers in the second half.
• 15:14
  [SPEAKER_00]: Just just an incredible shooting displayed that defensively they were they were locked in the entire game.
• 15:23
  [SPEAKER_00]: That's where you know when when you talk to Coach Tonicle, you know
• 15:30
  [SPEAKER_00]: when he is at, when he is at peace with what they're doing on the floor, the word that he most uses most often is connected.
• 15:42
  [SPEAKER_00]: And that was,
• 15:43
  [SPEAKER_00]: one of the first things he said to me post came last night is that these guys are really connected right now.
• 15:49
  [SPEAKER_00]: And towards the end of our interview, he said, I'm not doing a lot of coaching with these guys because they are so connected.
• 16:00
  [SPEAKER_00]: And another big part of that sentiment is his senior point guard, DJ Moore, DJ Moore's has been a leader for this.
• 16:11
  [SPEAKER_00]: for this group and has helped it become a cohesive unit that it is DJ Morel last night against Mount Vernon Nazarene.
• 16:23
  [SPEAKER_00]: The final score of this game, they beat Mount Vernon Nazarene 103 to 65 now to put that in context a little bit.
• 16:32
  [SPEAKER_00]: sat last Saturday Mount Vernon Nazarene beat the number one team in the country grace college on at MBNU on the home court in Ohio they beat grace by 15 points.
• 16:45
  [SPEAKER_00]: So MBNU rides the rides into MBNU Wesley and off that number one over number one grace and and takes a takes a 38 point beating at the hands of Indiana Wesleyan and which sets up a huge game on
• 17:02
  [SPEAKER_00]: three weeks ago, Grace was in full control.
• 17:05
  [SPEAKER_00]: I think they had a three game lead over everybody in the league.
• 17:09
  [SPEAKER_00]: In the crossroads league, Dannings and now.
• 17:11
  [SPEAKER_00]: Grace has two losses in the end of Westings, breathing down their neck with three losses in three games to go.

  [SPEAKER_00]: big game.
• 17:18
  [SPEAKER_00]: I've been went one on the lake.
• 17:20
  [SPEAKER_00]: I started afternoon, but back to DJ Moore, DJ Moore last night said set a single game program record for Indiana West, and it was 17 assists.
• 17:30
  [SPEAKER_00]: Wow.
• 17:31
  [SPEAKER_00]: Coach Tango couldn't say enough good things about the leadership.
• 17:35
  [SPEAKER_00]: DJ Moore's brought to this, this basketball team.
• 17:37
  [SPEAKER_00]: And, you know, just the, it's, it's been, it's been cool to see them.
• 17:49
  [SPEAKER_00]: the way they have fought through the adversity they've been through.

• 21:39
  [SPEAKER_03]: Express the house special this group has been it's good.
• 21:42
  [SPEAKER_02]: It's like like you're saying just a lot different than last year Not a lot of expectations from the outside, but from the inside we kind of were seeing the summer that maybe we had something But you know, to win 20 games and win the sectional with a new group of just mix of kids It's a tribute to these kids and our coaching staff and it is really special
• 22:06
  [SPEAKER_03]: When you get this team together originally, I'm sure you knew there were potential.
• 22:10
  [SPEAKER_03]: You probably had expectations, but I'm sure you also had questions.
• 22:14
  [SPEAKER_03]: What are a couple of the questions that your team has answered this year that's allowed it to be a championship team?
• 22:20
  [SPEAKER_02]: I think probably it's more about like,
• 22:22
  [SPEAKER_02]: we have a system that we run and so when you have new pieces like where does everybody fit and do they believe in the system and so I think having some early success of when some games early on and then it probably took a 7 or 8 games to get everybody in the right place Grace Woods a good example we had her in the post as beginning probably five games and then she's our two guard now so kind of just not knowing not knowing everybody and what their strengths
• 22:51
  [SPEAKER_02]: maybe not have the expectations that we had last year where we could kind of let it develop and let people ease into their roles and then once everybody got into their role then it kind of took off.
• 23:04
  [SPEAKER_03]: Alexander and Oak Hills become quite a rivalry particularly the last couple of years.
• 23:08
  [SPEAKER_03]: You're seeing again.
• 23:09
  [SPEAKER_03]: They beat you just a couple of weeks ago.
• 23:12
  [SPEAKER_03]: What has to be different this time?
• 23:14
  [SPEAKER_02]: Well, I'm hoping they don't make as many shots.
• 23:17
  [SPEAKER_02]: They hadn't made a lot of threes on the year and made, I think, nine against us.
• 23:23
  [SPEAKER_02]: And then we didn't score very much.
• 23:26
  [SPEAKER_02]: They had 51 and we had 33.
• 23:28
  [SPEAKER_02]: So I think for us to turn it around, we got to play better and maybe not VS has it to hopefully be a little bit more comfortable and confident the second time around.
• 23:39
  [SPEAKER_02]: And I like where our team is.
• 23:41
  [SPEAKER_02]: And I think we feel like we can win.
• 23:43
  [SPEAKER_02]: So we'll see you Saturday.
• 23:46
  [SPEAKER_02]: They've already proven their championship team no reason to take it any further, right?
• 23:50
  [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, absolutely.
• 23:51
  [SPEAKER_02]: I'm excited.
• 23:52
  [SPEAKER_02]: It's fun when there's only 16 teams left and 2A and that's what we talked about with our girls.
• 23:58
  [SPEAKER_02]: We're one of 16 teams and so we have a chance to move on to semi-state.
• 24:02
  [SPEAKER_02]: We're going to give it everything we have to do that.
• 24:04
  [SPEAKER_02]: Coach, how's Jacqueline doing?
• 24:06
  [SPEAKER_02]: She's doing awesome.
• 24:07
  [SPEAKER_02]: They have a big game for the first place in the conference tomorrow night, and she's getting to play a bunch, so she's really enjoying that.
• 24:14
  [SPEAKER_02]: It's great.
• 24:14
  [SPEAKER_03]: No questions.
• 24:15
  [SPEAKER_03]: She'd be a success there, so thanks so much coach for your time, and good luck on Saturday.
• 24:19
  [SPEAKER_03]: Thank you, I appreciate it.
• 24:22
  [SPEAKER_03]: Thanks for listening to the whole thing.
• 24:26
  [SPEAKER_03]: Appreciate it.
• 24:30
  [SPEAKER_03]: We'll be back tomorrow.
• 24:33
  [SPEAKER_03]: Hope you're enjoying the podcast.
• 24:34
  [SPEAKER_03]: It's a lot of fun to do.
• 24:37
  [SPEAKER_03]: I'd be doing it even if there wasn't a podcast talking to my friends about sports.
• 24:43
  [SPEAKER_03]: Might as well record it right.
• 24:52
  [SPEAKER_03]: Central Indian sports report is a product of ITG media and I love music.
