Down 16, we’re probably past the point of even hoping for a miracle. Super unfortunate that the Pacers season had to end in such heartbreaking fashion, but what an incredible run for the team and the whole city

RFK Jr talking about the need for doctors to know how to treat measles for those who are unvaccinated. “Only very sick kids should die from measles.” No. They shouldn’t. That was the point of the vaccine. We eradicated the virus so children didn’t die. Sick & disabled kids are not expendable!

The nationwide measles outbreak now stands at more than 800 cases, but you probably don’t know that since RFK Jr is keeping a tight lid on that news. The orange areas in the below map show where the vaccination rate is under the 95% coverage target among kindergarteners. That’s a LOT of orange!

Pacers have been a machine offensively and the Bucks have just not been able to sustain defense and rotations. -Two good switches to get the Pacers sub 10 -Haliburton rejects on the drive, Brook helps, kick to Siakam -Rotate, extra pass to Nembhard for 3. No one close.
