The 2021-22 NBA season has gotten off to a rocky start for the Indiana Pacers. They are currently 1-4 as they have been unable to take advantage of the opportunities that were presented to them.
Indiana opened up a 23-point lead on opening night against the Charlotte Hornets but ended up losing by one. In their next game, they seemed to be catching a break playing against the Washington Wizards, who were without Bradley Beal.
Myles Turner poured in 40 points and they still lost by one point in overtime. They were able to defeat the Miami Heat in overtime but lost to the shorthanded Milwaukee Bucks and Toronto Raptors after that.
The organization was hopeful that the one-year playoff absence under Nate Bjorkgren was an outlier. Rick Carlisle was brought in to help steady the ship, but they seemingly remain off course.
