It is a head scratcher. 

 

Not sure why Julio would say he was contacted if he wasn't. He's with TB12 on a contender, so it's not like he's got a bone to pick. 

 

It would be nice if the press brought it up, but they rarely ask tough questions. 

Both can be true.  

 

Team contacts Julio, enquires as to his interest and price.....

 

Team decides it isn't a fit or a doable price, so doesn't pursue....

 

Voila.  Julio WAS contacted, says Indy had interest.... AND Ballard says there were no internal discussions about adding Julio, because it never went past the initial tire kicking.  These things aren't mutually exclusive.

    • Bennedict Mathurin has been out, he was 4th best Pacers player out there. Just like Porzingis is for Boston. Porzingis might even be 5th behind White. White scares me more from 3. Tatum, Brown, and Holiday are definitely their top 3 players. Tatum is overrated IMO though, he chokes in big games a lot. I like Brown better as a player.
    • And let’s also remember that the Pacers have had, BY FAR, the easiest road perhaps ever to the ECF.   Bucks:  missing Giannis and Lillard for significant time. Knicks:  missing what, 3-4 starters?  Julius Randle and Bojan Bogdanovic missed all seven games. Mitchell Robinson got hurt in Game 1. OG Anunoby got hurt in Game 2, though he suited up in Game 7 but was pulled after just 4 minutes of play. Josh Hart and Jalen Brunson played while injury throughout the series.   Celtics:  no Porzingis, their 2nd or 3rd most important player.   Yes, injuries are a part of sports, but the Pacers’ run is a mirage.  Against healthy teams they probably wouldn’t have gotten past the first round. 
    • Everytime the pacers made a shot down the stretch, the Celtics would come back and make a 3... 🫣 Sorry guys..   And Dallas is absolutely shocking me against the wolves.. I don't know about them in the finals
    • I find it interesting that Pacers fans have completely ignored Porzingis being out.  If Porzingis were playing, none of these games would have been remotely close.
    • I do want to say, although this series isn't going the way I thought it would down 0-3, this has still been a very fun ride. Making the Final 4 isn't easy no matter how you get there. If the season ends Monday, I will tip my hat to Boston and acknowledge they have the better team. Who knows maybe we will win Monday and at least extend the series.   Once you reach the Final 4, you play the elite teams and Boston has been the best team all season in reality. Losing Game 1 to Boston was a gut punch because we had it won, but really the only gut punch I have felt all playoffs. Pacers had a chance last night as well, was up 18 at one time (only lost by 3) but the experience of the Celtics on how to close games at this stage was glaring.    Great moments during this run have been *Game 3 vs the Bucks: Haliburton makes game winning shot to give the Pacers a 2-1 series lead. That 121-118 win in overtime was the series pretty much. Pacers beat a division rival in Round 1 of the Playoffs 4-2.   *Game 3 vs the Knicks: With season on the line, down 0-2 in the series, Nembhard makes a 32-foot 3 pointer with the game tied at 106-106 to help the Pacers win 111-106.   *Game 4 vs the Knicks: Is now called the Mother's Day Massacre, Pacers blow Knicks out 121-89, series tied 2-2.   *Game 7 at New York: ESPN's Knicks = Stephen A. Smith, Molly Qerim, Monica McNutt, Big Perk, Mike Greenberg, Doris Burke, and celebrities = Ben Stiller, Jon Stewart, Tracy Morgan, Spike Lee, John McEnroe - we ruined your summer! Pacers set an NBA record and shot 67% from the field and 54% from 3 in a Game 7 on the road to take down the mighty Knicks in Madison Square Garden . I hate Boston but hate the Knicks more.   The 2024 season achievements *Won 47 games (47-35) and clinched that vital 6th seed, stayed out of the playin game.   *Beat the Knicks in the Semi-Finals to advance to the Final 4.   *Pacers had the #1 offense in the entire league scoring wise.
