Pacers Sound
On this edition of the Pacers Sound Table, Rik Smits joins Pacers.com's Mark Montieth to talk about how he went from a shy second overall pick to the Pacers' second leading scorer in franchise history. Smits was a member of all five of the teams that made it to the Eastern Conference Finals in the 1990s, including the 1999-2000 team that finally broke through for the team's first NBA Finals appearance. Smits -- as well as several the 1990s Pacers stars -- will be in attendance during Saturday night's Decade Game, when the franchise will honor one of the most successful eras of Pacers basketball. - - Minute Markers: - 2:00 - Career Expectations - 4:00 - Coaching Changes - 8:00 - Larry Brown's Style - 10:30 - Living in the Moment - 13:00 - Larry Bird as Coach - 16:45 - Facing Shaq in his Prime - 19:45 - Walking Away - 24:50 - Hobbies and AZ
