2007-08 Season
What happened to the Pacers? They went from being a total contender to breaking down. In such a strong and competitive division, it comes down to winning the necessary games – and critics are wondering if Indiana will be able to find itself, carry on and start winning. Unfortunately for Pacers ticket buyers, the only expectations they can have is for their team not to end at the bottom. To add to the problems, Stephen Jackson has to deal with off court legal problems, which will continue into the season. Jermaine O’Neal has the numbers to prove he is the centerpiece of the team, but has had to deal with suspensions and injuries. Sugarcoating aside, in this division it will be tough for the Pacers to advance without O’Neal on board. Fans can definitely expect the Pacers to be trouble shooting this season.
Previous Seasons
The best thing about Indiana Pacer tickets is that they come with a built-in chance to watch a one-season rebuilding process. This team has the ability to compete this year, but it may not happen with Ron Artest. So Pacer President of Basketball Operations Larry Bird will find some new talent in exchange for Artest, and the team will go forward. OR Bird and Artest will work it out, and the Pacers will make a renewed effort towards the NBA Playoffs after the All-Star Break. Either way, the second half of the season is going to be filled with drama.
Jermaine O’Neal and Jamaal Tinsley will wait out the proceedings and be ready to put together a playoff push in 2006. It is a great time to buy your Indiana Pacer tickets and watch this team’s turnaround in person at Conseco Fieldhouse.
The Pacers always seem to be on the verge. Besides their ABA days, when they were 3-time champs, the Pacers have been marred by their continued inability to make the final steps towards a championship.
Despite the efforts of stars like Billy Knight, Wayman Tisdale, Chuck Person, and Reggie Miller; the Pacers were never able to push themselves over the top. Every time they would get close, there was always a Julius Erving, Larry Bird, Patrick Ewing, Michael Jordan, or Shaquille O’Neal who managed to outlast them and move on to NBA championships.
