All-Star Game Starting Spot for Victor Oladipo
Alright, so this point may not seem like a team goal, but it most certainly is. In order for Oladipo to be in the consideration for the MVP award, the team will need to be strong around him. Indiana will need to be a serious contender and they will have to take enough pressure off of him to be able to accomplish this goal.
Oladipo took a massive jump last year, making it to the All-Star game. That being said, he was not a serious candidate in the MVP conversation.
Indiana has not had a serious MVP candidate in a long time. Even Paul George did not achieve that kind of hype during his time with the Pacers.
While actually winning the award seems a bit far-fetched, getting him into a top-five spot in the MVP conversation would mean the Pacers would take a massive step forward.
