Some news that I’m very excited about that @1kyletaylor.bsky.social teased on Locked on Pacers today: We’re starting a live post-game show where we’ll be streaming after one game every week with some fun, interactive segments. First show after the opener. See you there.

Today, @1kyletaylor.bsky.social got me to think differently about the Pacers upcoming season. I think we can get others to do so as well. How should the team play this year, and what does it mean for the future? Listen: open.spotify.com/episode/6knQ... Watch: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zab9...

A really great encapsulation of the degree to which Oklahoma City has taken the Pacers out of their offense through four games (and a look at how Indiana's defense has done similar work). Worth your time walking up to Game 5.

From the ASB through the end of the regular season, a period in which he played 21 games, Tyrese Haliburton committed two fewer live ball turnovers (13) than he did through these four most meaningful games of his career (15). OKC's defense has Indiana in hell. My story: ipacers.com/2025/06/16/o...

Grabbed @1kyletaylor.bsky.social today to look at the Pacers issues in Game 3 + broader challenges in the series. Can they get out of their own way? The Knicks defense is getting better & bigger. The Pacers need answers. Listen: open.spotify.com/episode/30Hi... Watch: www.youtube.com/watch?v=iuzf...

Cleveland put an obstacle in Indy's path with their 3-2 zone; the Pacers figured it out. The Knicks are edging the stylistic tug-of-war in their direction, and the Pacers will need to play better in many facets of the game to wrest control back. We talked about it: www.youtube.com/watch?v=iuzf...

Upset winners of 60-win juggernauts, picked by no one to advance, architects of all-time comebacks and late game heroics, these two rivals stand alone among the rubble of a conference they destroyed. Now, they have a chance to defy history—and to make it. My story: ipacers.com/2025/05/20/a...

Through two rounds, the Pacers starters have dominated their minutes: +15.8 net rating as a 5-man group in 143 non-garbage time minutes. Nembhard leveling up again, somehow. Tyrese, doing it on both ends?? Fun run so far.

I have not liked watching Boston's offense all year, and the start of this Knicks series is why. No other NBA team has the combination of low passing, low driving, and high volume pull-up 3P shooting that Boston does.

When the Pacers offense catches fire, they are undefeated: 20-0 in the last 2 years. Last season, it was a key part of what made playing the Pacers so dangerous. They'd have 1-2 of these performances every 10 games. This season, it had only happened twice until the last month.

Had @1kyletaylor.bsky.social help me dive into Pacers-Bucks Game 4 by looking at issues from Game 3. Where to begin - Is defending Giannis and shooters possible? How can Haliburton get going? Offense or defense worse? Listen: open.spotify.com/episode/0EgT... Watch: www.youtube.com/watch?v=oQYb...

Two shooting trends defining IND-MIL: 1) Pacers annihilating Milwaukee on corner 3's. A symptom of getting beat off the dribble leading to kickouts + Tyrese's cross-court passing punishing Milwaukee's help and inattention.

How to build a better Pacers bench unit: 🚫 No center 🔥 3+ good 3P shooters For the season, these bench units were +7.2 pts per 100 possessions -- but in just 156 minutes. It’s time for them to be put to the test against Milwaukee. Full story: ipacers.com/2025/04/18/t...

When Tyrese Haliburton sees his first shot go in, he turns up his scoring the rest of the way. When he misses his first shot, he often dials back. An appropriate pattern for a role player, but not a star. My story: ipacers.com/2025/04/09/n...

When everyone improves a little, does it add it to something more? My answer: no. In the last 10 years, only 2 teams (out of 80!) have won a playoff series after being bottom 10 in the league for the first two months of the year.

The Pacers have become a star-led team, winning the minutes at least 2 of Haliburton, Turner, and Siakam share the floor and losing the minutes with just 1 or none of them. Last year, units that tilted away from the Pacers three best players were slightly better than those featuring multiple stars.
