The Pacers will be in the market for a new head coach.
The team announced on Wednesday that they have relieved Nate McMillan of his head coaching duties. In his four seasons as head coach, McMillan led the Pacers to a 183-136 record but struggled in the postseason, winning only 3 out of 19 games. The team has dealt with various injuries to star players Victor Oladipo and Domantas Sabonis during McMillan’s tenure.
The team said in a statement: “On behalf of the Simon family and the Pacers organization, I’d like to thank Nate for his years with the team,” said Pacers President of Basketball Operations Kevin Pritchard. “This was a very hard decision for us to make; but we feel it’s in the best interest of the organization to move in a different direction. Nate and I have been through the good times and the bad times; and it was an honor to work with him for those 11 years (in Indiana and Portland).”

In recognition of September’s National Suicide Prevention Awareness month, WTLC-FM and its partners collaborated with local mental and behavioral health organizations to address the alarming increase in the suicide rate among black and Hispanic teens in the Indianapolis community. On September 10, 2019, all Indianapolis Radio One stations stopped their regular programming from 10 a.m. to noon, instead running an uninterrupted special to provide mental health information and resources. In addition, mental health professionals were available to help listeners cope with their mental health conditions.
We were able to help our black and latino listeners by giving them a safe place to find information and get help. Now they know their choices and know there are people out there ready to help them.

Mayor Joe Hogsett isn’t taking the city’s mask mandate lightly and wants residents to take it serious.
Tuesday, Hogsett and the Marion County Health Department held a news conference to announce new COVID-19 safety measures. During the conference the mayor called mask violators selfish and insulting to the families of the 3,000 Hoosiers who have died from the virus.
Hogsett then announced that those who do not wear a mask and violate the mask mandate could face fines up to $1,000.
What are your thoughts? Should the fine be this much?
