from Setting The Pace: A Pacers Podcast · host Tyler Chin
Today, Alex Golden and Mike Facci discuss Facci's big weekend, where he put on his cape and became Super Dad for his daughter Maddie playing a carnival game. Then, the guys get into the weeds and look at the starting wings (shooting guards and small forwards) in the Eastern Conference. Alex and Facci rank from 1-15 each wing duo in the East and explain why they ranked Nesmith and Mathurin in the position they did against the other duos for the 2025-2026 season.
