Alex Golden goes solo on today's episode of Setting The Pace to break down one of the most fascinating NBA hypotheticals of the offseason:

Could the Indiana Pacers actually land LeBron James and Bronny James?

With multiple reports suggesting LeBron could be willing to sign for the veteran's minimum, Alex explains why Indiana may be a more realistic basketball fit than many of the teams being discussed.

Topics include:

• Why the Pacers make sense from a basketball perspective
• Tyrese Haliburton's relationship with LeBron James
• Whether LeBron's upcoming live Mind the Game podcast with Haliburton in New York City means anything
• How Indiana could create the necessary financial flexibility by making a simple trade for Bronny James
• Why adding LeBron to the Pacers' current core could immediately elevate their championship chances

Then, Alex shifts his attention to Summer League, recapping Indiana's 94-93 loss to the Toronto Raptors.

He discusses:

• Which players stood out despite the loss
• The positives and negatives from the game
• Braden Smith's continued struggles
• Early Summer League takeaways and what to watch moving forward

A fun episode combining LeBron speculation, roster construction and Summer League analysis as the Pacers continue navigating a fascinating offseason.
