The 2006-07 Indiana Pacers season was a challenging period marked by inconsistency and disappointing results. The team finished with a 35-47 record, missing the playoffs for the first time since the 1996-97 season. Rick Carlisle, the head coach, struggled to find a cohesive unit, leading to a season of underachievement despite his prior successes with the team.
During the season, the Pacers made significant roster changes, including a trade that sent Al Harrington and Stephen Jackson to the Golden State Warriors in exchange for players like Mike Dunleavy and Troy Murphy. These moves were intended to revitalize the squad but failed to produce immediate success. Jermaine O’Neal, the team’s star, faced injury issues, further hampering the Pacers’ playoff hopes. Overall, the season was a rebuilding phase, setting the stage for future restructuring and development.
- Regular Season Record: 35-47
- Playoff Result: Did not make playoffs
