The Indiana Pacers have struggled in past years. The team missed the playoffs over the last three seasons, and they have not made it out of the first round of any playoff appeara nces since 2013-14. The team has been below .500 since the 2019-20 season and entering the 2023-24 seasons their projected win total was set at 38.5.
Indiana would finish the season 47-35, exceeding their expected win total and outperforming what many anticipated. The team had a net rating of 3.0 ranking 10th in the NBA. Entering the playoffs the Pacers were viewed as a dark horse as they had built momentum and proved to be a strong team in the regular season. Would the team surprise fans once again?
In the first round, the Pacers faced off with the Milwaukee Bucks. In the regular season, the Bucks were an incredibly strong team with a record of 49-33, finishing third in the East conference standings. They featured the star duo of Giannis Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard and looked to be the much stronger team. After both Bucks stars suffered injuries, the Pacers would beat the Bucks handily in six games. Pascal Siakam led the team with 22.3 points per game. The team already advanced further than many would have predicted and once again thought the Pacer's playoff run would end as they faced the New York Knicks. Like the Bucks, the Knicks had a stronger regular season and roster than the Pacers and were projected to win. The series would go to game seven with both teams trading blows. The Pacers would come out with a series victory after winning games six and seven behind impressive performances from Tyrese Haliburton. Entering the Eastern Conference Finals the Pacers faced the Celtics. The Celtics were the best team in the NBA all season long and this is where many thought the Pacers Cinderella story would come to an end. Despite upsetting teams along their playoff run, the Pacers streak would end as they were swept by the much stronger Celtics.
The Pacers had multiple players post star-caliber numbers and that allowed them to make this deep playoff run. Key performers included Pascal Siakam, Tyrese Haliburton, and Myles Turner. Siakam was a star for the Toronto Raptors before he was traded to the Pacers. With the Pacers, he had a strong season averaging a team-leading 21.3 points per game, and had solid performances throughout the postseason. Haliburton was the star of the team as he had a breakout season in 2024. The 23-year-old averaged 20.1 points and a league-leading 10.9 assists per game, these solid stats led to him being named an all-star and being selected to the All-NBA third team. Turner also had a solid season, contributing a significant 17.1 points per game as the 27-year-old center continues to produce. If the Pacers and Haliburton are able to continue to develop and add scoring power to their roster, they will be a force in the league for years to come.
In 2023 the Pacers improved their overall record by ten games. Their 35-47 record put them in eleventh place in the Eastern Conference when the playoffs started. Buddy Hield played in 80 games in 2023. He had 225 assists, 26 blocks, scored 1344 points, and 106 free throws. Hield was the top scorer in 2023. Bennedict Mathurin scored 1302 points and 318 rebounds. Tyrese Haliburton led the team in assists with 585. He finished the season with 1160 points.
The Indiana Pacers are still in "rebuild" mode. They finished the 2021-22 season with an overall record of 25 wins and 57 losses. The team lost their last ten games of the season
The Indiana Pacers had a 2018-2019 season that was pretty much what the experts expected of them. They finished the regular season 48-34, good for the 5th seed in the Eastern Conference playoffs. In round one of the playoffs, they were promptly swept out by the Boston Celtics, who finished just one game ahead of them in the standings. One might ask if the seeds were flipped, would Indiana have had a real chance? The answer is simply no. They were swept out by a far superior team and having home-court advantage would not have mattered that much. They might have won a game, the keyword being “might.” Before the draft, the Pacers acquired point guard Malcolm Brogdon as a future first-round draft choice. They kept their 2019 first-round draft choice, 18th overall, and they used it on center Goga Bitazde from the country of Georgia. In free agency, they added shooting guard Jeremy Lamb, point guard T.J. McConnell and small forward Justin Holiday. All of these men are welcome additions around their star duo of center Myles Turner and shooting guard Victor Oladipo. The Pacers should be improved this season as a result of these moves. How much though remains to be seen. Probably not enough to put them into the same category as the Bucks though.
