And Jerami Grant.He's going to be our best pro since Carmelo.
havent followed this nba season at all but when i saw the reportts on this forum that he wouldnt play this year found it very hard to imagine...this game here makes it clear they were way overreacting and wrong.Efficient, timely and on both ends. That is the definition of a damn good hooper who has no business buried on the bench. Good to see Oshae finally get a chance to pick right back up from last year.
Oshae played 23 mins tonight vs the Bucks but only scored 3 pts as his shot wasn’t falling, 1-6. He did add 6 rebs and 2 asts. He was the first sub off the bench and came in 3 mins into the game.
I think Indiana wants to win and will be good enough to make the playoffs. They looked pretty good to close out the season last year, with Oshae being a key reason for that and I think he’ll also be a key piece for them to complete a turnaround this season. The man just knows how to make an impact on the game, hopefully this little stretch finally keeps him in the rotation. Rick Carlisle shouldn’t be able to get away with keeping him off the floor any longer.Indiana seems to want to tank again (even with the current win streak) as they are apparently making Sabonis, Turner, Brogdon. Levert available.
Will help Brissett get some floor time

Yeah it’s certainly possibly, they are definitely a middling team with no real chance in becoming elite. I’m just going off my own intuition in thinking that they ride out with their current guys and try to compete come March/April and playoffs.Shams Charania is a fairly reputable insider.
Whether they move players or not, Oshae should still be able to get extra time. You probably were responding when I made an edit to my post so I will repeat it here.
There are three older SF's that play 17, 15, & 14 minutes in front of him (Lamb, Craig, Martin).
So I can see an easy enough path (even with no player moves) for him to get from 14 minutes to over 20 minutes by simply taking time away from those 3.
That's great news. Glad he may be sticking around.I don’t know what happened but Oshae went 18 games and only played 44 mins with several DNPs. Now he’s back to playing and has played 93 mins in the last 4 games and they are 3-1 in those games. On the season they are 4-4 when Oshae played 20+ mins.
Last night the pacers beat Dallas and Oshae played 26 mins scoring 9 points on 4-4 shooting, 4 rebs and 2 asts.

It’s depressing when guys like Jeremy Lamb are considered “older.”
It's more depressing that Jeremy Lamb is an NCAA champion.
He’s finally getting good playing time, recently.Pacers are on NBA TV vs Warriors. Brissett came in early and has made his first 2 3s. Curry has missed his first 2 3s.
Brissett > Curry
