Indiana Pacers - Power Ranking
Week | Rank | Rating | Team | Record | Comment |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
16 | 23 | 29 | Ind | 4-8 | Struggling recently yes, but the Pacers are hanging around. Much like Yeet in the discord chat. Once a much feared opponent, the Pacers aren't as scary without Wemby. No one would be, the kids an absolute freak of nature. But they are still there abouts, teetring between playoffs and play-ins. The squad has some pieces to still cause you problems, but are probably still a year away from doing any real damage. It does seem like a matter of when with Wembanyama though, not if. But will that be in Indiana or Portland? |
15 | 14 | 48 | Ind | 6-6 | "Alone" by Heart "Alone" is a powerful rock ballad that explores the vulnerability and longing associated with unrequited love. The lyrics convey the deep desire to be with someone and the loneliness felt when that affection is not reciprocated, highlighting the emotional intensity of yearning for connection. How every other player on the Indiana roster feels with their young GM only having eyes and thoughts about the teams young French superstar. Viva Le Wemby! |
14 | 6 | 73 | Ind | 9-4 | 6. Indiana Pacers (United Kingdom) The Pacers, like the UK, maintain a 'traditional economy' with a rich 'history,' balancing 'old-school' fundamentals with modern 'financial instruments' to stay competitive. With the recent news of Wemby, will this be the industrial revolution (sleeves up) or will this be a divisive Brexit situation!? |
13 | 7 | 66 | Ind | 8-5 | Death Threats- We've all heard the cries "Indy are coming" from flamboyant GM Yeet but have they ever actually arrived? Not yet. Much like the murderer from I know what you did last summer, Yeet incorporates the psychological element when it comes to his victims. He makes them imagine the absolute worst case then when reality strikes, a quick death isn't actually so bad. I wonder what he will do this summer. |
12 | 4 | 76 | Ind | 9-4 | Indiana Pacers - "Tainted Love" – Soft Cell (1981) A new wave classic with an unforgettable melody, the new wave of Indiana Pacers basketball has been enthralling. The team and organisation have been ruthless and persistent in their pursuits of happier times and competitive play. They sit 4th in the rankings, and this would be music to the ears of the fan base. Hungry for more wins - and ‘that’s not nearly all,’ |
11 | 12 | 60 | Ind | 7-5 | Indiana Pacers: The Colossal Golem 🗿⚡ Why? The Pacers embody the unstoppable force of a titanic Golem – a construct of raw power, relentless motion, and unyielding structure. Their roster towers over foes with a blend of physical dominance and mechanical precision. Golem’s Core (Unstoppable Engine): Victor Wembanyama stands as the animated monolith, a 7’3” marvel who crushes defenses with otherworldly shot-blocking, guard-like agility, and a shooting range that defies his gargantuan frame. Runic Armor (Defensive Mastery): Mikal Bridges and Isaac Okoro fortify the Golem’s exterior, smothering opponents with lockdown agility and reactive instincts. Kinetic Cogs (Relentless Motion): Scoot Henderson and Terry Rozier fuel the machine with hyperactive speed, slashing lanes and sparking transitions like gears in perpetual motion. |
10 | 14 | 50 | Ind | 6-6 | A Pacemaker - The Indiana Pacers are a perfect 6-6. The Heart has rhythm, with predicable ups and downs. They continue to find improvements from their ailings, and have sought doctors help when needed. At current the patient is not in need of any further treatment, however if irregular heartbeats are present we suggest a direct path. The Pacers continue to tinker and find their best - at current their seems to be a cicadian rhythm to their madness. With time we will see if additional support is needed, or whether an upward life swing can occur for the franchise. |
9 | 13 | 58 | Ind | 7-5 | Samwell Tarly - What a loyal and dependable friend Sam was to Jon Snow. But he was not only that, he is also part of the reason why they were able to actually put up a fight against the Night King and the army of the dead. He was the one who discovered dragon glass can kill them. He single handedly saved Jorah Mormonts life by ridding him of grey scale. And, he also discovered the secret heritage of Jon Snow, which would change the course of events ahead. Not to mention he was a caring partner and loving father. |
8 | 13 | 56 | Ind | 7-5 | |
7 | 5 | 72 | Ind | 9-3 | Rumpelstiltskin - Indiana - Spins straw into gold, manipulates deals, and has dangerous magic at his fingertips.Constantly on the pulse of spinning deals into the best outcome for his organisation, GM Yeet has made this Indiana Pacers squad a daunting prospect for any team to face. They are dangerous in many ways, and have crafted a roster and future that can cause issues. Akin to Rumpelstiltskin, Indiana have magic at their fingertips in the form of Victor Wembanyama - a truly magical talent who is only set to get better. Who needs the first born child of some random lady when you have a potential MVP in your ranks? |
6 | 11 | 52 | Ind | 7-5 | Russell (Up) - 'Hey, I have never been in a floating house before.' I loved the visualisation of the NSL as this big glorious land mass that floats above the everyday grey and matte colours and duties, a wonderful fantasy land. Yeet has boundless enthusiasm and passion, much like Russ. Russ collects explorer badges and Yeet collects wins. Both are immature in the ways in the world, but also have an advantage - it hasn't jaded them, rounded their edges down through trials and responsibility and disappointment. Yeet plays a similar role in the NSL universe; he reminds us of the wholesomeness of excitement and caring about a cause. And to put a big bloody cherry on top of this, and a hearty pat on the back for myself, Yeet is the Wemby whisperer, just like how Russ was able to find the unattainable 'Snipe/Kevin' bird.'Can I help you with anything, Mr Fredsicksen? |
5 | 13 | 55 | Ind | 7-5 | Candyman (Candyman) - Say his name three times, and he will appear… Yeet, Yeet…. The Candyman has the urban legend behind it and will find you when you are most isolated and volatile. The Candyman, like a ghostly apparition will find you and haunt you. A swarm of bees or the last thing you will ever see. The Pacers can be truly frightening and it is down to the looming presence of Victor Wembanyama. The have a 7-5 record, and have Powell, Bridges and Rozier to cause further headaches. Luring teams of all ilks, the Pacers ask "Be my victim." |
4 | 13 | 58 | Ind | 7-5 | Luke Skywalker - Star Wars. Luke Skywalker was a farmboy who rose from humble beginnings to become one of the greatest Jedi the galaxy has ever known. Luke led the rebellion to battle the evil Empire and ended the tyranny of the Sith. Not to mention accidently kissing his sister. Luke was trained by another all-time character in Yodo, who taught him all there is about the force and how to use it. |
3 | 8 | 66 | Ind | 8-4 | The ever evolving roster of the Pacers seems to finally be taking shape. Wemby has been great, as we all expected, but it seems to be the additions of Terry Rozier and Mikal Bridges that has allowed the Pacers to take a leap. It’ll be interesting to see if Yeet tinkers more with the roster, and if he does, how much? |
2 | 6 | 50 | Ind | 6-2 | “Respect" – Aretha Franklin- Yeet is always demanding to get the respect with his team, but I think people only really mess with him cause it’s so easy. Everyone respects they have a good team in Indiana, not sold on if they are contenders yet though. |
1 | 12 | 24 | Ind | 3-1 | Wow, a lot of teams had a good first week. Three wins, a tick in any team's eyes. Yeet would have been thrilled to get a bonus win with a re-sim; every win counts in this marathon of a season. The Pacers look like a team with good chemistry, multiple options and two-way players. Yeet has done a good job being active and building the roster. Do they have another gear they can go to? |
