What do Indiana Pacers fans need to know heading into the 2021-22 NBA season?
The new NBA season is almost here and the Indiana Pacers have a lot to look forward to after a dreadful showing last season. With a new coaching staff and revamped roster, the Pacers can make some noise if things go well.
As with any other season, there are going to be a number of factors that dictate how the season goes and just how far the team can carry into the playoffs. Rick Carlisle was brought in to help elevate the talent that is spread across the rotation in Indiana. That talent, which is noteworthy, has not been able to put it all together just yet.
The current Pacers roster features four 20-point scorers, a two-time All-Star, and a Defensive Player of the Year candidate. However, none of that seems to matter when they can barely compete in a weaker Eastern Conference. The East has improved quite a bit this summer with the Pacers staying relatively content.
As the new season nears, we need to prepare ourselves as best as we can before we let our dreams come crashing down. Here are a few things that all Pacers fans must know before the season tips off.
