Great vibes to start the new season off.
PS poor Braden lmao
I had no idea Iowa State fans had beef with us LMAO. You’d think trouncing a #1 team in one of the best home environments in the country would be enough for them
Apparently the students are saying that it’s because Braden got the spot on the Pacers over Tamin? I mean I don’t doubt our (Iowa State alumni) capacity to be petty over stuff like that but isn’t it obvious that Braden would get a benchwarmer spot over Tamin? Hometown kid, similar role, and we also get Tamin for another year. Not the worst trade ever.
They’re mad they get to watch Tamin play another year instead of going to a G-league team 500 miles away…?
I know Tennessee fans weren’t happy with the Grizzlies drafting Edey but they at least got over it because he fit the needs of the team much better than Knecht (and that decision has aged very well)

Man, how can you not love Tyrese Haliburton??
To half the teams in the east he’s basically Satan
The Knicks winning a ship really soiled a lot of our shit talking ability, and we’ve dominated the bucks but they won a ship relatively recently. Cavs too.
That will all change when we win the championship this year though
Happened to us as well. Most of the teams we oppressed during the Jimmy years won titles.
My hate is alive and well for your team given you stamped out a year we thought we were making a run. But I mean, he’s pretty likable. I want him to lose not retire, unlike say Draymond.
nah. They don’t win if Hali is healthy. Should hold that over them till they actually beat the Pacers in the playoffs.
So do you think the Pacers are better than last years Spurs?
And spurs would lose in 5 if OKC was healthy. Now silence, 29 point lead blower.
Lol, Knicks would have smoked the Pacers last season, just like they did your Spurs
But he wasn’t healthy. And the Knicks beat the Spurs in the Finals. And Brunson has a ring. And Hali and Wemby don’t.
ah yes, the hypothetical. Knicks won btw in the real world if you forgot, but enjoy!
Dude let it go. We went on one of the most dominant postseason runs ever. The Pacers had 19 wins. The team had a lot of problems last year, and Hali is absolutely not the difference between being bottom of the barrel and beating a championship team on a historical playoff heater.
You can still talk your shit you’ll just sound salty and jealy is all; but when has that ever stopped sports fans before?
Brother I am salty and jealous. We’ve been a better run and more competitive franchise for literal decades despite being a small-market team with a cheap owner, and you got a chip while our miracle run ended in historic heartbreak. It’s horseshit. Which is sports.
We can shit talk the Knicks until they beat us foh
Yeah we kind of don’t take it seriously anymore…………unless he beats us in the playoffs and wins the title………….pls no
I loved the Pacers team and was really rooting for them during their run. I would’ve done so even if they had eliminated my team during that playoff run.
I don’t know how anyone could love sports and not be amazed at what they were doing.
The Haliban will continue to terrorize the East until morale improves
Think about how Sac feels
I miss him so fucking much 😭 Bought so many of his rookie auto cards and was stoked to finally have a fun player to root for (who wanted to be here too).
Then it was gone in the blink of an eye.
Love Sabonis also, and loved finally making the playoffs, but fuck do I miss Hali.
Fwiw he REALLY wants to be Satan
He loves being an entertainer as much as he loves playing, and that includes being the heel on the court for the fans of opposing teams who hate him. Honestly just makes me love the guy more.
I like tyrese, was sad we didn’t get him either I rly wanted us to draft him that year.
He is a basketball terrorist after all.
Haliban
Seriously, I like Haliburton but mostly I’m just so happy he’s back and healthy, same way I felt when Tatum came back last year. You always want to see all these guys come back from injuries like that and continue to perform at a high level.
Love him as a dude, hate him as a player.
And before people get in their feelings, that’s meant as a sign of respect.
Because you think Sabonis is an easier guy to build around 😭
Condolences. I still remember being shocked by that trade.
He poisoned our water supply, burned our crops, and spread the plague unto our houses!
He did??
Yeh, I was there
Brian Williams?
He did???
Look at my flair and ask me that again
I’m a Knicks fan so it’s kinda easy but he fine tho (I am also a woman with eyes 🥰)
Iykyk 😉
I don’t love Tyrese Haliburton
Are u the guy that called in to call the mascot a rat panther? That was hilarious
Easiest guy to root for in the NBA
I HATE THAT CLOWN.
Man he must’ve really hurt you. It’s ok I feel the same way about Jaden McDaniels lol he is in my nightmares
He’s a hoe
Its very easy for us
I can
When he plays against us I would boo tf out of him. But at a player and as a person I respect him. Win or lose, he seems like a cool dude overall.
first thought i had as i watched the vid
I don’t love him. Wish him health but that’s about it
I’m here. This was amazing. Though half these kids are younger than the song.
The sign of a masterpiece is its timelessness
Hot Fuss is an all time record and Mr. Brightside is the signature song.
smile like you mean it >>>>>>>>>>
whole record classic
Nah Jenny Was A Friend of Mine is the one
And as a millennial, this above anything else, is our anthem. Don’t care who you are and what kind of music you otherwise enjoy, you fuck with this song if you’re of my generation.
It’s alright in a stadium rock sense for that.
I do love the mod-wave rock mini-era that existed in the mid 00s though - Franz Ferdinand, Kaiser Chiefs, Killers, tail end of emorock MCR and FOB and PatD!
Just before synth everything made rock an afterthought in pop.
Kaiser Chiefs not getting enough respect in the US is such a crime
Every single wedding
wtf? lol I’m a millennial and this song has become what it is because of like instagram or that other social media thing. It was okay back in the day but it’s not even the best killers song. I feel like I’m being gaslighted by society. This song is not even that good
It’s because its easy af to sing. Big sections of it are literally just one note repeated over and over lol
As a tonedeaf millennial, I am here for it
I’m convinced it’s bots or something. It was a relatively popular song, but nothing crazy. I doubt it was ever top one on the US billboard or top five.
Edit: I decided to spend the five second to research. Out of the dozens of billboard charts out there it only hit number one on the UK Indie chart.
It’s the one that has endured but I remember Soulja Boi being just as big a thing in high school
millennial here; legit don’t think i’ve ever heard this song.
I find that so hard to believe.
Only way I begin to believe is if you live outside the US, and even then most people have heard it.
I mean this song is huge everywhere. It’s basically the unofficial UK national anthem.
nope, i’ve just always listened to old stuff and somehow avoided most stuff post y2k.
EDIT: cracks me up when people downvote for someone saying something that’s true. do you really think i’m lying? why the fuck would i lie about never hearing a song?
okay just pulled it up youtube. yeah it fucking sucks. if i ever heard it i would have turned it off immediately. downvote away, don’t give a shit. legit a terrible song you all have horrible taste.
Are you just coming out of your cage?
So? Good music is for all ears regardless of age.
I agree. I just thought it was fun.
What was chanted right afterwards? It sounded like fuck kd lol
“FUCK KU” on repeat.
B12 hatred 🥲
Shit. Why’d you do that to me? Now my back hurts. 😅
That’s a 10 out of 10 crowd keeping it going for that long after the music cut out.
The vibes seem wildly high for the NBA to start. I don’t really remember the last time there was this much hype. Just a different verve this year. Maybe it’s the no repeat winners run and anti-tanking draft changes giving everyone a March Madness feel.
This was at his Alma mater too, although Mr.Brightside isn’t in our rotation (I bet it will be)
I would suggest any basketball fan to go to a big game at Hilton. Allen Fieldhouse is the only place I’ve been that’s comparable. Signed ISU alumn and season ticket holder who unfortunately couldn’t go to the game last night.
Mackey, Assembly Hall when IU is good, Breslin, all insane
Mackey is on my list as long as ISUs not the opponent. Can’t jinx it since I didn’t go to last years stomping. Purdue in Hilton this year is a prime one neutral fans should consider. Unfortunately we get Arizona at home when the students are on winter break so it would be be good in terms of getting tickets but not the full experience.
I think so, the parity is doing wonders for the league rn. I like watching knowing it’s not all for nothing. Also knicks winning and other teams emerging is rly exciting
Sometimes announcers need to just shut up and let a moment be enjoyed.
Then how would I know it’s a nice moment?
I prefer to be spoon-fed my emotions
Can they put some emojis on screen and a guy in a little box showing me how to react?
Little box…? I prefer the ones where the bottom half is the highlight and the top half is a dude just nodding then goes “daaaaamn” at the end of the clip
I take that back, put the highlight in the picture in picture box and use the full size one to show me their reaction.
I need to see a three second clip of the end of the nice moment before the nice moment happens.
Maybe the lyrics - one word at a time in gigantic font.
This is in Ames.
Cool to see Tyrese having fun with his college’s crowd.
He actually bought those seats for the students too, like I went and the students line was wrapped around it like it was a Big 12 conference game
And bought them pizza while waiting in line
Vibes are back in Indy.
If it ain’t us this year, I want Hali wearing the ring. Actually I’d just love a finals rematch.
Not to be “that guy”, but I think they would’ve won game 7 finals had he not gone down. My man was COOKING. His playoff run that season made me into a lifelong fan.
Respect
here for it and no Dort this time (thank heavens)
Too lit mannnnnn
Millennial white people cant help but sing this, all the small things, and I want it that way everytime they come on
It’s actually written into our contracts when we’re born
and I’ll be damned if I ever break that contract
It’s a blood pact
Dont forget i write sins not tragedies
And Black Parade triggering you within 3 notes. Does Radioactive count, or is that early Zoomer?
Also Songs About Jane being a banger album before that band (Maroon 5) lost their way and became a poppier version of Nickleback.
all millennials love Mr. Brightside I don’t know a single person black white green red or yellow who doesn’t belt out that song
TELL ME WHYYY
None of the students are Millenials but the rest stands.
Cool how this song has become a sports stadium staple
It’s also basically the British national anthem as well
Don’t Look Back in Anger erasure
I’m sure Motley Crue fans said the same thing…
What are they chanting at the end?
I was curious too. It’s apparently “fuck KU”
And I also learned that it’s something Mizzou does at football games, with the same chant.
Its something Mizzou does at all games, regardless of the sport (source: I went there)
And something Kansas State does at pretty much every sporting event. Though they do it to Sandstorm
Had my volume on low but it sounded like OKC lmao
It’s also extremely popular at Iowa state, where Hali went to and where the game was being played
Fuck KU (Kansas)
How can you not be romantic about basketball
I really hope Hali comes back to his finals form from 2 years ago.
THE SUN RISES IN THE EAST
I’m not even a Pacers fan but this dude is a gem of a franchise player.
dies
You’ve got Ben Simmons cheer up friend
I don’t even know if this is sarcasm but thanks friend lol
Nah you’re good you got Maxime Raynaud that will become a Jokic like player. (Maybe).
Vive le France!! Love Maxxie
I’m sad Russ is not here anymore, they had such a cool connection !
Hali deserved that ring. Had he not gotten injured the Pacers had it. I only wish the best
Missed you Tyrese
Never change
My Goat is back
Iowa State crowd*
Buffalo Bills 🤝 Indiana Pacers
I wanted that Pacers team to win so freaking bad.
Glad he’s back. So great for the game.
With not just the rehab but the other health issues he has had since going down in the Finals it’s so good to see him this happy. Seems like a good dude
I love the song but i love the song about your girlfriend fucking someone behind your back becoming a crowd favorite is hilarious
110k people in the Big House singing along about some dude getting cuckolded is always hilarious to me (I love the song and sing along as well)
Mr Brightside being sung at sporting events is up there with Every Breath You Take being performed at weddings. 😆
Born in the USA for political events lol
And The Black Parade at funerals 🤔
who tf is doing that
This plus so many sports teams making it “their” tradition, none of which are more than a couple years old.
Who else does it? I’ve seen UofM football do it and didn’t get the connection. I think the connection is that everyone just likes the song
Kansas State, Mizzou, and Boston College all do it. Buffalo Bills play it before every 4th quarter.
That’s pretty cool. I’m assuming it’s just an anthem of the last 2⁄2.5 gens of Americans, so everyone just knows it.
I wonder which school will sing it 100 years from now
Technically it’s a paranoid insecure dude having intrusive thoughts/fantasies about it happening, but yes
people who like the song have no idea what it is about
which perfectly encapsulates the type of person who think it’s a good song
I already love Hali but seeing him joyously say fuck kU just elevates it beyond belief
FUCK KU (as in Kansas university)
It’s what ISU fans always do during this song
Hey Mizzou does that too.
And same for Mizzou (University of Missouri)
ISU ISU ISU it sounded like, given its at Iowa State University
okc
Man I know I’m biased, but nothing beats that feeling of going to a school that isn’t a powerhouse like ISU, and having your alumni care so much about it. Hali, Brock Purdy, Breece Hall, Monte Morris, Jaylin Noel, Georges Niang, they all care so much about it and it warms my heart every damn time as a Cyclone.
Hali proposed to his wife in the middle of Hilton Colosseum and named his dog Ames, he’s the best
As a wolves fan I love Hali bro
Hate this song (idk why) but man it’s so good to see Hali happy that I’m singing at the gym.
Does every home crowd sing this song?
Man it’s so good he’s back
Love seeing him back on the court.
Ok, For those not in the know, there is a bit of a rivalry between Iowa State University, ISU, and the University of Kansas, KU, The song leading Mr. Brightside into a complete saying of Fuck KU, Fuck KU, Fuck KU, Fuck KU.
Because KSU is Kansas State University.
Bro this just made my night. It’s so awesome seeing him back playing and happy
He is so white
Give me Finals run Haliburton back please
man i like seeing hali happy
This is still preseason, right?
Man. I wish we traded Ben for this dude. Coolest light skin in the league
Dawg they chose Fox over him
Is he the Josh Allen of the NBA?
I may get my millennial card revoked for saying this but this song sucks, it’s right up there with Sweet Caroline
Youre gonna upset all the white people here
when this comes on at 4 am and the lights are coming on it hits
I don’t like sweet Caroline but Mr Brightside is great imo
You played with fire and got yourself burned.
Millennial card revoked.
one of the worst songs ever made
probably the most annoying voice I have ever heard in a track
Makes sense, unironically one of the best songs ever
I love Hali
Jaylen brown, I miss you 💚
