Him not paying attention forced Mitch to defend Haliburton on the inbound pass. :banghead:

Honestly this is the best they've played since Game One. The Game One choke was brutal but they played better in that game than Game Three. If they keep playing like this I'm not sure they can beat OKC but they can definitely beat the Pacers

He does that and yet KAT no

You gotta make Hali play defense. He's a traffic cone. If we don't pull off a miracle, OKC is going to wear him out searching for him.

Ends in near turnovers or completely sloppy possessions 90% of the time.

I want Bridges going as much as anyone. When him and/or OG are cooking we are so much more dynamic, but forcing it is only hurting things offensively right now

keep shooting that 3 brunson even if you miss you have the mismatch and then with a big on him easy offensive rebounding down low

Chump ass pacers thought they could hang with us. Halifraud is lucky he got this far.

Good Sh*t Mitch, all this while being held so he can't rebound

This is the best game since Game 6 vs Boston tbh.

You can tell Hali’s plan this game is to score late

He’s trying to ambush this one

They just need to play 20 solid minutes of D. They can do that, right?
