It's crazy to think that Hali is being compared to Purdy while Hali is banking millions and Purdy is scraping by on hundies. I know Brock will get paid, but dang it sucks that the guy is paid so low right now.

A skinny Magic Johnson with a set shot. He's got such a wonderful smile, he seems so nice while he's carving the opponent up.
I think it's cool how other players in the league are wanting to come to the Pacers to play with him.
It is going to be wild if Tyrese wins the NBA championship and Purdy the superbowl in 2024.
Didn't we have people here posting that he should redshirt and bulk up?
Pacers can win the In Season Tournament but they're not winning the Larry O'Brien.
This. Unless they could grab some players in a blockbuster trade they don't have enough pieces to make any noise. But what do they really have to trade?
The best thing to come out of this in season tournament is the entire nation is getting a chance to see Hali play. It is criminal that it took this for some of the national networks to carry one of his games.
Literally.
The Pacers were scheduled to have ONE nationally televised game, excluding the Tournament.
Heild is a nice trade piece for picks or youth. Solid depth piece and a good shooter on an expiring. I’d like the Nuggets to go after him.
There’s not much they can do to add this year and make a run, outside of what they already have in the roster.
I said during his first game that he would be the best pro player in Iowa State history.
It's unlikely, but if Tyrese wins the IST over LeBron and the Pacers make the playoffs he and Brock will very likely both finish top 5.
I recall an article he did from an interview with Paul Shirley years ago (early 2000s) and he said it was "hilarious to [him] that a school like Iowa State has boosters. Like, what are they - the biggest tractor salesmen?"
I’ve enjoyed Simmons since the page 2 days. Grew up obsessed with reading his columns.I recall an article he did from an interview with Paul Shirley years ago (early 2000s) and he said it was "hilarious to [him] that a school like Iowa State has boosters. Like, what are they - the biggest tractor salesmen?"
*For the under 25 crowd on here, we use to read sports articles in newspapers and magazines to hear their takes before podcasts and talk shows were a thing.*
I always thought his disdain or lack of interest in college sports were weird until I met a bunch of people from the NE region. They do not care or have an appetite for college sports, its a whole other sports world.
Eh I’m willing to give him a pass. He’s from Boston, he doesn’t know. I’m sure a lot of Iowans think everyone from Boston is like Jeremy Renner from The TownI recall an article he did from an interview with Paul Shirley years ago (early 2000s) and he said it was "hilarious to [him] that a school like Iowa State has boosters. Like, what are they - the biggest tractor salesmen?"
I find his disdain for college sports refreshing. I live in Denver and most people here feel the same way.
With how corrupt college sports have become, it’s kind of nice to realize huge swaths of the country couldn’t give two ***** about the University of Alabama
