The Return

Wednesday Night in Bankers Life Fieldhouse, a big return was made. After 1 year and 6 days away from the game that he loved, Star guard Victor Oladipo finally made his comeback to the court and he did so in a big way. Oladipo suffered from a gruesome leg injury last January that turned out to be a ruptured quad tendon in the right knee. Wednesday night against the Bulls he found himself on the court again. he came off the bench and was on a restricted minutes limit in which only allowed for him to make a few big plays, but none bigger than the three point shot to send the game to overtime with 9.0 seconds left on the game clock. In an interview after the game Oladipo stated, “What did [Kobe] do in those moments? Why not? Y’all see what I work on. Where I shoot from. Y’all know I can make that. I know I can. The rest of the game didn’t matter. I’m just staying in the moment. I learned that from Kobe.” (Oladipo) He knew that he was the right guy to take the shot and he learned that from the recently late superstar Kobe Bryant. Oladipo finished the game with 9 points, 4 assists, 2 rebounds all in just 21 minutes of action.

Indiana Pacers guard and newcomer, Malcolm Brogdon, knew that it was going to be a huge night for the Pacers with the large anticipation of the return. “We wanted to do it for him,” claimed Brogdon post game, ” We knew how much energy was going to be in the building tonight.” (ESPN Associated Press) Teammates and fans knew the time was right for Oladipo to make a splash and that he did.

Next for The Indiana Pacers is a home game Saturday where the New York Knicks will be in town. Tip-off will be at 7:00 p.m.

The Beginning

Hello,

I am covering this topic based on the background knowledge and the availability that I have to watch and study the Indiana Pacers and its organization. Many other bloggers also cover this topic with a wide array of ideas when writing about this team. Many bloggers post game updates in which they will preview the upcoming match-ups with teams and how they feel the game might play out.

One blog that I believe does this very well is 8point9seconds in which they give a thorough evaluation of what players will be key in the upcoming games or what to look for in the next Pacers game. They also break down player match-ups as well, for example, how Nikola Jokic will match-up against Myles Turner at the center spot, or how Aaron Holiday will be a big role player off the bench against the second unit of the Suns. They do numerous updates on how things will play out and you can take a look at these here, https://8points9seconds.com/2020/01/20/pacers-jazz-preview/.

Other blogs such as the blog 1070 The Fan, which is the blog from a radio show as well, like to breakdown how the season is going thus far. Blogs will react to the record of the team, the standings, and the playoff picture to evaluate how the team is performing overall. In this article, https://www.1075thefan.com/blogs/kevins-corner/pacers-coverage/pacers-reach-season-midway-point-11-games-above-500, you can see the breakdown that the blog gave at the midway point of the season and how they felt as they felt the team was performing at that point.

As for many blogs about the Indiana Pacers, most of them are basic. A lot of the content that you see is game previews and and post-coverage. It is basic information that can be easily accessed and easily given a large amount of facts to report on.

In my blog I want to differentiate from just normal game coverage statistics and posts. I want to include much more in-depth thinking that allows for my readers to grow and become more knowledgeable about the entirety of the Pacers and the behind the scenes parts of the organization as well.

This type of content on my blog will discuss a few different areas that I believe will do that. First, I will discuss the conference rankings and playoff discussion as it progress through the season in which will be important to thee chances of a championship here in Indiana. I will also discuss roster movement and rumors. This covers trade talk, salary/extension for the players and organization on how we can pay certain players and who is most valuable. Lastly, I will discuss free agency and draft talks as well and what the Pacers may need to do to improve its roster in the near future.
