They are really good at when to push the pace.

I know that’s technically a foul but be consistent on that, it happens on every single drive for both teams

Brunson and Bridges seem to play better with the other on the bench

Carlisle is playing chess here. He's establishing Pascal early so that he can use him as decoy later in the series.

It's in their brains.

Bridges thrives when the ball moves, and that doesn’t happen with Brunson

One thing Towns is better at this year is being strong with the ball. Towns has always been prone to playing sloppy, and that's still true this year in New York, but he's stronger with the ball overall. I think he finally got a stretch of good health and was able to add a little strength.
The Pacers do not have enough bodies to matchup with him. Their centers (Turner and Bryant) can survive, but anytime it's Siakam or a wing, he's doing a good job of playing big.

Just wish his offensive game was a little more refined. It can look gangly at times

If Indiana can keep it even when the bench comes in they will win this game.
