The Pacers have only made the NBA Finals one time. This occurred in 2000, where Indiana lost to the Shaquille O’Neal and Kobe Bryant-led Los Angeles Lakers.

If the Pacers do reach the Finals, fans in Indiana will go bonkers. The Hoosier state deserves to see their team back on basketball’s biggest stage.

Indiana’s only problem will be how to figure out the Oklahoma City Thunder’s defense, as OKC will be their likely opponent. No team has figured it out yet, but if any can, it is the Pacers.
