It’s Game 7 of the 2018 Eastern Conference Finals. Jayson Tatum just baptized LeBron James, the roof of the TD Garden is about to blow, and Brad Stevens is flexing a Jimmy Neutron-esque IQ. The Boston Celtics came within one game of the NBA Finals with a 20-year-old rookie as their best player, ...
You might not realize it, but the Indiana Pacers have been one of the most stable organizations over the past 20 years when it comes to head coaches. In the 22 year span from 1997 to 2019, the Pacers have only had six coaches. That's pretty impressive. In light of Nate McMillan's outstanding job last ...
There aren’t many coaches who’ve had to deal with what Nate McMillan has this season. Usually, if your best player goes down, you might just pack it in and say “well, on to next year.” But not Nate. Since Victor Oladipo was lost for the season, McMillan has guided the Pacers to a 22-11 record ...
Believe it or not, the Indiana Pacers haven’t shifted in the standings since Victor Oladipo’s injury.

As usual, the Pacers flew relatively under-the-radar during NBA trade season, but their biggest addition came in the form of a free agent signing. Just over a week ago, Wesley Matthews was dealt to the Knicks in one of the biggest trades of the season thus far. Matthews had his contract bought out ...
Let me just say this right off the bat: the Pacers are not getting Anthony Davis. There’s just no way. Still, there’s a chance that Davis will end up in the East, a move that would most certainly shift the conference’s balance of power. Following AD’s trade request to the Pelicans this past ...
It didn’t even look that bad. There he was, Victor Oladipo, about to get up after going for a steal against Pascal Siakam. Then, out comes the Grim Reaper (disguised as a trainer), who immediately throws a towel over Vic’s leg, and another entry into the book of “Indiana Getting Screwed” was ...
The NBA season officially begins Tuesday with a match up between the Boston Celtics and Philadelphia 76ers. Like most of America, the Campus Citizen’s sports section is itching for the return of pro basketball. Here are our predictions for how the 2018-2019 NBA season will pan out. MVP Giannis ...
The upcoming NBA 2k league has gained the attention of many aspiring professional gamers. Pacers Gaming held an open play event that many gamers from different areas attended. The event was an opportunity for players to meet each other and play NBA 2K18. “This is our second event,” said Cody ...
