This is what I mean when I say smart FOs seize all the advantages. Pacers been invested in necromantic summoning ever since the Heilbeiter prophecies dropped in like 2021, and they’ve kept Meister Khan locked in a basement quietly tinkering with the cursed clay of ancient relics since then. Most teams would think ‘is it going to win us a title if the great lord Ishtar descends in his 32nd most unholy form to possess the arteries of our starting 4 man and unleash the fury and bile of Draniveen onto our foes? Probably not.’ But the Pacers saw a possible advantage—however small—and stuck with it.
Also sad that casuals just think TJ McConnell was ‘playing hard’ or trying more or whatever this series, as if the pledge to serve Black Peter deep in the frozen maw of Hades (eternally shut out from the light of all that is holy and good) played zero part in it. People never get the nuances of the nba game.
