Here are my running thoughts from the Pacers’ 108-101 loss to the New York Knicks Sunday night at Madison Square Garden.
It’s the Pacers’ only visit to MSG this season, unfortunately. It’s not one of the best facilities, but it is historical and often brings out the best in the players. Indiana lost both visits last season, by seven and six points, respectively. Myles Turner,…
The Pacers are off to a 5-3 start, winners in three consecutive games. They posted wins over San Antonio and Cleveland this week, and newcomer Victor Oladipo was rewarded for his impressive start with the NBA’s Eastern Conference Player of the Week award.

For perspective, he earned $8 million a year on …
Here are my running thoughts from the Pacers’ 101-81 win over the Sacramento Kings Tuesday night at Bankers Life Fieldhouse.
Things are very different around here since George Hill was on the team in 2015. Just three players still around — Myles Turner, Joe Young, and Glenn Robinson III — and new uniforms, a new court, and new public address announcer. Hill was the final…
Myles Turner is feeling “really good,” 13 days after he sustained a concussion. That was in the season opener, on a hit by Brooklyn’s DeMarre Carroll, and he was not aware until the following day when he complained of neck pain.
After laying low for nearly two weeks, in a dark room and away from screens like his television and phone, Turner returned to the …
Pacers shooting guard Victor Oladipo was named the Eastern Conference Player of the Week on Monday. Oladipo earns the honor — for the first time — after averaging over 28 points over Indiana’s three-game span and leading the Pacers to two victories.
