  • Doyel: Pacers never give up, have a star who doesn't miss in clutch time. It's who they are

    1 day ago | usatoday.com | Gregg Doyel

    OKLAHOMA CITY – Obi Toppin has the ball 60 feet from the basket, six seconds left in Game 1 of the 2025 NBA Finals, and Indiana Pacers coach Rick Carlisle doesn’t want a timeout. The Pacers have never led the Oklahoma City Thunder, not for one second of this friggin’ game in that friggin’ madhouse they call Paycom Center, and this is their chance.

    They’re telling Jim Irsay stories at his funeral Monday, and you don’t know whether to laugh or cry. So at St. Luke’s United Methodist, they do both. The Colts owner, who died May 21 at age 65, was remembered at a private service attended by past and present players, coaches and GM's, along with an eclectic mix of rockers, reporters and friends. A crowd of more than 1,000 heard stories that further illuminated a man this city knew well, but now knows just a little bit better.

  • Doyel: Yes, the Pacers have superstars. And they have two more who don't actually play

    The NBA Finals-bound Indiana Pacers are said to have two stars: Tyrese Haliburton and Pascal Siakam. Here's two more: president Kevin Pritchard and coach Rick Carlisle. Pritchard put together a deep, unselfish roster that far exceeds the sum of its parts, while Carlisle has unleashed that roster in a way that is changing the NBA. Game 1 of the NBA Finals is Thursday night at Oklahoma City.

  • Doyel: Tyrese Haliburton promised he'd be better in Game 4 — then went and made NBA history

    1 week ago | indystar.com | Gregg Doyel

    Tyrese Haliburton called his shot vs. the Knicks, blaming himself for the Pacers' Game 3 collapse and vowing "to be better." Then he made history in a Game 4 win. Haliburton became the first NBA player, regular or postseason, with 32 points, 12 rebounds, 15 assists, four steals and no turnovers. His 15 assists with no turnovers also set a conference finals markThat’s what he said Sunday night.

The Pacers' ugly Game 5 loss to New York puts heavy pressure on them to win Game 6 at home. Because who wants to see Game 7 in Madison Square Garden? https://t.co/eiVGskmJWU
