The Pacers Post Up: Daily Summaries Delivered
by Brad and Ryan Knight, Bleav
Brad and Ryan Knight, affectionately known as The Brothers of Basketball, are lifelong Indiana Pacers fans turned podcast hosts who bring heart, humor, and hoops knowledge to The Pacers Post Up, a show built entirely by fans, for fans. Brad’s love for the Pacers dates back to the Reggie Miller era—the legendary playoff heroics, the fierce Eastern Conference Finals battles, and the team’s lone trip to the NBA Finals in 2000 are part of his basketball DNA. He still vividly remembers watching the Malice at the Palace unfold in his parents’ living room. That deep-rooted connection only grew over the years. Brad’s wife has been a Pacemate for 8 seasons, and he credits their parents’ investment in season tickets as a key part of the family’s shared bond with the Blue and Gold. Ryan, a few years younger, missed the height of the Reggie era but became fully indoctrinated during the Paul George years—when the Pacers battled LeBron and the Heat year after year. A proud member of the G2 Fan Zone, Ryan brings a modern lens to the franchise’s evolution while honoring its gritty legacy.

Congrats to the N… Nope: The Pacers Comeback Tour Starts Now
The NBA season is officially over. The Knicks are champions, Jalen Brunson has his Finals MVP, and yes… Ryan gives New York their flowers. Brad, on the other hand, isn’t quite ready to go that far. In this season wrap-up episode, we discuss the Knicks’ championship run, Brunson’s Finals MVP performance, the conversation surrounding his contract and willingness to take less money, and the iconic Game 4 shot from IU’s OG Anunoby that helped swing the series. But more importantly, we shift our focus to what comes next. With Tyrese Haliburton expected back next season, the Pacers enter the offseason in a familiar position: overlooked. Despite a roster loaded with talent, Vegas oddsmakers and national media continue to underestimate Indiana’s ceiling, and that perceived disrespect could become a powerful motivator for a team with legitimate championship aspirations. The Knicks got their moment. Now it’s time for Indiana to begin writing its comeback story. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Pacers Around the Horn: Rumors, Roster Moves & Rooting Against New York
This episode, Ryan and Brad discuss several intriguing names that have been linked to Indiana or could make sense as offseason targets, including Ayo Dosunmu, Naji Marshall, Yves Missi, and a true wild card in Jonathan Isaac. What would each bring to the roster, and which names make the most sense for the Pacers moving forward? We also discuss the possibility of Jay Huff heading to Boston and what that could mean for Indiana’s frontcourt depth and offseason plans. To wrap things up, we turn our attention to the NBA Finals, the antics surrounding the Knicks fan base following Game 3, and what we’re hoping to see the rest of the way as the series continues.

Pacers Player Predictions Vol. 5: Entering the Ivica Zubac Era
It’s the fifth and final installment of our Player Prediction Series, and we’re wrapping things up with perhaps the biggest mystery on the Pacers roster: Ivica Zubac. After last season’s blockbuster trade, Pacers fans only got a brief glimpse of the team’s new center before a rib injury ended his season after just five games in a blue and gold uniform. We never got to see him share the floor with Tyrese Haliburton or Pascal Siakam, leaving plenty of questions heading into next season. How will Zubac’s numbers translate in Indiana? What impact can he have as the defensive anchor of this team? Will the Pacers finally solve their rebounding issues? And how does the offense evolve with a traditional center occupying the paint instead of the spacing provided by previous lineups? Ryan and Brad break down their statistical projections, expectations, and concerns for Indiana’s new man in the middle while discussing what success would look like in Year 1 of the Zubac era. Plus, we close out the show with a look ahead to Game 3 of the NBA Finals as the series shifts to Madison Square Garden. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Pacers Player Predictions Vol. 4: How Good Is Pascal Siakam, Really?
Pascal Siakam keeps producing… and people keep overlooking him. Brad and Ryan break down the outlook for Indiana’s star forward as he heads into his third full season with the Pacers. From stat projections and award predictions to his standing among the league’s best players, the guys discuss why Siakam remains one of the NBA’s most underrated stars and what another year alongside Tyrese Haliburton could mean for his production. Can Pascal make another All-Star team? Does he have a path back to All-NBA consideration? And why does he continue to be one of the most overlooked players in the league? Plus, a preview of the Spurs-Knicks Finals and the ripple effects for the Pacers moving forward. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Pacers Player Predictions Vol. 3: Double A Energy
Every contender needs a guy like Aaron Nesmith. Brad and Ryan continue their “Pacers Player Predictions” series with a deep dive into one of the emotional engines of the Pacers roster: Aaron “Double A” Nesmith. Coming off a season where he posted career highs across the board after one of the most efficient postseason shooting performances in NBA history the year before, Nesmith enters next season as one of Indiana’s most important glue guys for another title push. The guys discuss Aaron’s offensive growth, defensive versatility, elite energy, and why he’s exactly the kind of player every championship team needs. Plus: stat projections, defensive expectations, shooting outlook, and whether another leap could be coming for one of the Pacers ultimate blue-collar stars. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Pacers Player Predictions Vol. 2: Welcome to Nembhell
The Pacers may have one of the NBA’s best two-way guards hiding in plain sight. Brad and Ryan continue their “Pacers Player Predictions” series with a deep dive into the Pacers starting two guard and one of the most versatile backcourt players in the NBA. After stepping into primary playmaking duties and averaging nearly 17 points and 8 assists while ranking Top 7 in the league in assists, what does Nembhard’s role look like with Tyrese Haliburton back in the lineup? The guys discuss how much on-ball responsibility he’ll continue to carry, whether another leap defensively could put All-Defensive honors within reach, and why “Nembhell” has become one of the toughest experiences in basketball for opposing guards. Plus: stat predictions, playoff expectations, and how critical Nembhard’s two-way impact is to another Pacers title push. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

A new offseason series begins… and there was only one place to start. Brad and Ryan kick off the first episode of their 5-part “Pacers Player Predictions” series with a deep dive into the face of the franchise: Tyrese Haliburton. Coming off the Achilles injury and the heartbreaking ending to Indiana’s Finals run, what can Pacers fans realistically expect from Hali next season? The guys break down projected stat lines, possible awards, workload expectations, and whether Tyrese can return to being the engine of another championship push.

The End of an Era: How the Pacers Broke the Bucks
It sounds dramatic… but are we sure it’s wrong? Brad and Ryan take a deep dive into the Pacers role in the unraveling of the Milwaukee Bucks over the last few seasons. From Indiana dominating the Bucks throughout the 2024 season—including the In-Season Tournament semifinal in Las Vegas—to back-to-back first-round playoff eliminations, the guys trace the timeline of a rivalry that may have fundamentally altered the trajectory of Giannis Antetokounmpo’s title window in Milwaukee. The infamous game-ball drama. Pat Beverley’s final NBA moment. Coaching firings. The Damian Lillard disaster. Brook Lopez’s exit. Khris Middleton traded. And of course the ridiculous Myles Turner deal sitting on Milwaukee’s books through 2029. At every turn, the Pacers seemed to be standing on the other side of the Bucks downfall. Was Indiana the team that officially ended an era? Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.
