Game Thread 04/27: Pacers vs. Cavs Game 6 

Post#1 » by boomershadow » Fri Apr 27, 2018 1:37 pm

For a team that seemingly has built their identity around rallying from behind, Friday night's Game 6 against the Cavaliers will be the ultimate test of the Pacers' ability to overcome the odds.

As the series returns to Bankers Life Fieldhouse for Game 6, the Pacers will be looking for its All-Star, Victor Oladipo, to find his shooting touch. After an impressive start to the series, Oladipo's shooting has hit a snag, going 12-of-50 over the last three games.

While Oladipo started the series hot and has struggled since, the opposite has happened for Pacers forward Domantas Sabonis. The Lithuanian forward had yet another impressive night, leading the Pacers with 22 points on 8-of-12 shooting, including a jumper that tied the game at 95.

I hate JR Smith with the fire of a 1000 suns.

I lied, I'm back.

See, this is what I wanted and needed to see.

Not only the win, but the effort you've shown us all year.

Lance must have told Lebron, "I'm your rival!"

See, when LeBron has a monster game, Cavs win by 3, but when Vic has a big game, Pacers blow the Cavs out of the water

Dipo wanted that triple dub and he got it, so congrats to him.

Let's hope it helps his confidence on Sunday.

Ridiculous how easily we have beaten those guys when Oladipo was playing at his normal level.

Only Lebron should be allowed to advance to the next round if. Such a poor team.
