- The 1990–91 NBA season was the Pacers' 15th season in the National Basketball Association, and 24th season as a franchise. In the off-season, the Pacers signed free agent Michael Williams. The Pacers would get off to a slow start with a 9–16 record, as head coach Dick Versace was fired and replaced with Bob Hill. Under Hill, the Pacers held a 19–27 record at the All-Star break, but played above .500 for the remainder of the season, posting a six-game winning streak in February, and finishing fifth in the Central Division with a 41–41 record. Reggie Miller averaged 22.6 points and 1.3 steals per game, while Chuck Person averaged 18.4 points and 5.0 rebounds per game, and Detlef Schrempf provided the team with 16.1 points and 8.0 rebounds per game off the bench, and was named Sixth Man of the Year. In addition, Vern Fleming provided with 12.7 points and 5.3 assists per game, while Williams contributed 11.1 points, 4.8 assists and 2.1 steals per game, Rik Smits averaged 10.9 points, 4.7 rebounds and 1.5 blocks per game, and LaSalle Thompson provided with 7.6 points and 6.9 rebounds per game. In the playoffs, the Pacers faced off against Larry Bird, and the 2nd-seeded Boston Celtics in the Eastern Conference First Round. The Pacers managed to even the series at two games a piece, but lost by just three points in Game 5 at the Boston Garden, 124–121, where Bird got injured during the game, but returned to score 32 points. For the season, the Pacers changed their primary logo, removing the arm from the letter "P" from the previous logo, and changed their uniforms, adding navy blue to their color scheme. The jerseys remained in use until 1997, while the logo lasted until 2005. (en)
