Pacers Podcast
On today’s episode of the Indy Cornrows podcast, Mark and Caitlin continue “The One” player review series, selecting one play, one number, and one over/under for each of the young, fringe bigs on the roster: Goga Bitadze, Oshae Brissett, Jalen Smith, and Terry Taylor.
Don’t worry. Isaiah Jackson hasn’t been forgotten. After already reviewing the season for Myles Turner, Jackson will be included in a future episode along with Tyrese Haliburton and Chris Duarte. To make it easier to follow along and share your thoughts and picks in the comments, here’s the stats, lines, and clips for each player, albeit without context to avoid spoilers.
Goga Bitadze
One Play: Defense that requires quick decisions on the move, rather than winding up and sitting at a spot
One Number: 116.3
One Over/Under: 3.5
Oshae Brissett
One Play:

After this week, the plan is to alternate between draft pods and player reviews.
Next up: Lance Stephenson, T.J. McConnell, and Duane Washington Jr.
Enjoy the pod and perhaps go back and listen to our Cavs-Hawks preview from last week to prepare for tonight’s play-in game with draft implications on the line for the Pacers. Also, as always, be sure to Rate and Review the Indy Cornrows Podcast on Apple, and subscribe on all other platforms.
