Pascal needs to channel his inner Kawhi Leonard. He knows how Kawhi carried scoring wise but he plays too team oriented still

OKC just not that sharp. Indy had a very good shot at winning this one I think.

Derozan
Lowry
Ibaka
Valanciunas
Van Vleet
Delon Wright
Lebron
Embiid

There are only 2 teams in the league that rank in the top 6 in offensive and defensive efficiency: the Golden State Warriors and the Toronto Raptors.

If Pascal has to go into "#1 option" mode, it might expose the Pacers.

This isn't like a Brunson or a doncic or an SGA situation.

Pacers can win without Hali. OKC would be dead in the water without SGA.

I hate to say this, but shades of the KD injury in our series.


Kind of feel like getting in that type of rhythm got him feeling extra confident and he instinctively planted and drove like he normally would rather than being more cautious out there like he might have if he wasn't in a groove.

Injuries happen. Tatum getting hurt and multiple Cavs getting hurt helped Indy get to the Finals.

Gotta have luck along the way
