The Indiana Pacers are not where they hoped to be heading into the All-Star break. They knew things would be tough without Paul George, but the team was looking to compete for a playoff berth in the Eastern Conference. Instead, the Pacers are 15 games under .500, and four games out of the last playoff slot.
ESPN's Playoff Odds currently give the Pacers just a 12.5 percent chance of closing the gap and making the postseason. Even with the accumulated disappointment of 49 games and just a small chance of making the playoffs, the Pacers have learned a lot this season about their roster and what their future challenges might be.
Improvement has been absent in a few expected places and appeared spontaneously in some unexpected ones. The struggles of the supporting cast have been frustratingly familiar and the biggest need is obvious.
Here is what we've learned about the Pacers.
