The Pacers 2015-16 season is complete after a first-round exit to the Toronto Raptors in Game 7. A few days later, Pacers President Larry Bird decided to change head coaches after Frank Vogel led this team for five and half seasons. - On this week’s podcast, hear highlights of what Bird said at his 23-minute press conference and I’m joined by Bob Kravitz to break it all down. - Kravitz, who has been here for over a decade, has a great pulse on the Indianapolis sports landscape. He’s currently a sports columnist for WTHR.com and he frequently appears on the network for his opinion and insight. - [Frank Vogel releases statement on his time with the Pacers] - Subscribe to the Pacers Podcast on iTunes. (And, if you like the podcast, please leave a review.) - I welcome your questions and comments @ScottAgness on Twitter or via email. - Topics Discussed: - - * On how much blame Bird deserves for the Pacers’ season - * If Bird is misguided in believing players tune coaches out after three seasons - * Bird informing Vogel he was done … on the phone - * Bird’s record in the draft and free agency - * If Vogel learned from Colts coach Chuck Pagano to fight for his job - * Vogel’s impact on the franchise - * What type of coach would be best
