Pacers Coverage
The Indiana Pacers entered Bankers Life Fieldhouse on Tuesday night already without Malcolm Brogdon and Domantas Sabonis available due to injury. And they left with a 113-97 loss to the Chicago Bulls and a sprained Myles Turner ankle. Goga Bitadze also took a couple blows down low battling for position against Chicago. In this shortened […]
INDIANAPOLIS – The headline act didn’t show up, and the Pacers once again didn’t show up in the game’s most critical moments. With a head cold keeping Victor Oladipo in Miami, his teammates made more of the needed plays in the 4th quarter to come back and beat the Pacers, 92-87, inside Bankers Life Fieldhouse. […]
INDIANAPOLIS – It didn’t matter the Wizards had the NBA’s leading scorer sidelined on Monday night. They still had the best player on the floor. And that’s saying something considering Domantas Sabonis scored 35 and grabbed 11 rebounds. Russell Westbrook (35 points, 21 assists, 14 rebounds) was the best player on the floor Monday, setting […]
INDIANAPOLIS – The news the Pacers got on trade deadline day wasn’t in the ‘buying’ or ‘selling’ mode. Instead, it was ‘unfortunate’ news. A few hours after Thursday’s 3:00 PM deadline passed, the Pacers announced that T.J. Warren will miss the remainder of the 2020-21 season due to a left foot injury. Back on January […]
INDIANAPOLIS – Needing anyone and anything to go their way in trying to end the longest homecourt losing streak for the franchise in more than 35 years, the Pacers (20-of-23) got that on Wednesday night. A game-clinching shot from Caris LeVert and a season-high 18 points Edmond Sumner pushed the Pacers past a pesky Pistons […]
INDIANAPOLIS – Even with several important figures in street clothes, the result for Indiana playing in Milwaukee was all too familiar. Both the Pacers and Bucks had major personnel issues on Monday, with no Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee), Myles Turner (left ankle) and Malcolm Brogdon (lower back). The Bucks (28-14) torched the Pacers from behind the […]
INDIANAPOLIS – Balance and key plays down the stretch led to the Pacers (19-22) getting a very important two-game sweep in Miami. Indiana got the Miami swing started on Friday with arguably their finest offensive performance of the season. In going an astonishing 20-of-36 from three (55.6 percent), the Pacers scored 137 points, eclipsing the 30-point […]
It’s starting to feel a bit Truman Show-esque for the Indiana Pacers right now. Just a lot less funny though. It truly has been a good afternoon, good evening, and good night type of season. 1st quarter promise, 2nd quarter slowness, 3rd quarter banging and bashing, and 4th quarter quicksand traps. Wednesday night inside Bankers […]
INDIANAPOLIS – Returning from the All-Star break has seen the Pacers play better, but they are back in Indianapolis with a 1-2 record on their 3-game western road trip. Missed opportunities in the 4th quarter will define this road trip against 3 of the better teams in the West. Indiana (17-21) got outscored by 19 […]
INDIANAPOLIS – The much-anticipated return of Caris LeVert came on Saturday night and it resulted in arguably the best win of the season for the Pacers. In returning from the All-Star break for a 3-game western road trip, the Pacers (17-20) got a split on their Friday/Saturday back-to-back. On Friday, the Pacers were in position […]
