Poll: Should Frank Vogel be the coach of the Pacers next year?

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) – The Indiana Pacers announced that President of Basketball Operations Larry Bird will hold a press conference Thursday morning at 11 a.m.

No further information about the press conference was provided by the team.

Indiana’s season ended Sunday night in Toronto as the team lost 89-84 to the Raptors in Game 7 of the opening round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

Following the loss, there has been speculation as to whether head coach Frank Vogel will remain with the Pacers.

Vogel took over as Pacers interim coach in the middle of the 2010-11 season, following the firing of head coach Jim O’Brien, and led the team to a playoff berth for the first time since 2006.

Indiana reached the Eastern Conference Finals in 2013 and 2014, where they lost to the Miami Heat both times.
