Pacers just aren't looking to run a play for Pascal in half court. This is what Chuck was talking about.

Can't capitalize when the refs are calling everything against them.

So Nesmith can't hit a three unless Indy is down 10 with 8 seconds left? Is that how it works?

Show us them not getting fouled.

Every FT has been obvious.

I think Dort and Chet are the key. Dort has to disrupt Hali and Chet has to guard Siakam and also be a great help defender.


I don't think Chet's length will be enough to compete against Siakam's strength and skill, and so that could be very promising. I worry about Dort or whoever is guarding Hali.

Nobody's been able to permanently slow the Pacers down for long stretches. I like to think the Pacers are resilient enough to keep it clicking, even against elite perimeter defense like OKC has. If they can, I think the Pacers should hopefully have a 50/50 chance to win (i like to hope better). If not, well, it was a good run.

Keep being patient. Run for your offense and you'll get good looks.
