Meet the new boss – same as the old boss. Nate McMillan will become the next head coach of the Indiana Pacers as soon as the mundane dickering over terms and the insertion of the ubiquitous force majure clause is inserted in the contract. For a franchise that required change, according to team president Larry […]
I like Frank Vogel. You do too. He’s a really good guy and coach who never put his self-interest ahead of the Indiana Pacers. That doesn’t mean he is the absolute best candidate to lead the Pacers in 2016-2017 and beyond, but it doesn’t mean he isn’t either. There is a chance that Bird hires […]
With Frank Vogel out, the Pacers are looking for a new coach. Pacers president Larry Bird has been insistent that his team push the ball, shoot threes, and score more points. Vogel didn’t get that done to Bird’s satisfaction, so the search is on for someone who will. Few other hints were offered yesterday as […]
Frank Vogel will not be the coach of the Indiana Pacers moving forward. He hasn’t been fired because Vogel’s contract expired at the end of the playoff series with the Toronto Raptors. The debate that began in earnest as Pacers president Larry Bird shared his thoughts on Vogel with the Indianapolis Star’s Gregg Doyel will now […]
Frank Vogel likely doesn’t know at this moment whether he will invited to return as the coach of the Indiana Pacers (Larry Bird will hold a press conference tomorrow at 11a to talk about this and other topics), but that shouldn’t keep him from making the call on his own future. Leaving the Pacers is […]
There is no doubt after reading the quotes from Pacers president Larry Bird in today’s Indianapolis Statr that he wants to replace coach Frank Vogel. The headline in the Star says Bird is undecided on Vogel’s future, but that sure wasn’t my take. Here are the quotes gathered by Gregg Doyel: “I don’t know what’s […]
Last night, the Indiana Pacers season came to an end, and with it the curtain may be ready to fall on the longest coaching stint in franchise history. Frank Vogel has been the coach of the Indiana Pacers more than 100 games longer than anyone in the team’s NBA history, and he has the second best […]
What a miserable game. The Pacers appeared unready and incapable to claim a stranglehold in their opening round matchup against the Toronto Raptors. As the fourth quarter began, the Pacers held a commanding 13-point lead, and Paul George was showing himself to be the best player in the series. An incredible 9:30 elapsed in that […]
It’s easy to overreact to a debacle like last night’s Indiana Pacers loss to the Toronto Raptors. The Pacers failed to compete and were never in the game. From the brief moment the Pacers led 9-8 until the clock mercifully expired, the team assembled by Larry Bird and led by Frank Vogel failed to match […]
