 | | The Pacers missed the playoffs in 1987-88, drafted Rik Smits in the 1988 NBA Draft, and suffered through a disastrous 1988-89 season in which coach Jack Ramsay stepped down and eventually was replaced by Dick Versace on the way to a 28-54 finish. |
 | | The Pacers duplicated their 52-30 record in 1995-96, but were hurt severely by an injury to Reggie Miller's eye socket in April, from which he wasn't able to return until Game 5 of their first-round series against the Hawks. |
 | | Unfortunately for the Pacers, their first NBA Finals appearance was against the dominating Los Angeles Lakers, who proved too much for them to handle as they ended Indiana's championship hopes in six games. |
