all of that evident in Game 5
the real head-scratcher, Haliburton went from taking 23 shots in Game 4 to just 7 tonight (his lowest total in the series)..he had at least 15 attempts in each of the 1st 4 contests
The @nyknicks force a Game 6. They take Game 5 at home as they beat the Indiana Pacers 111-94 to stay alive with the series still at 3-2, Pacers lead.
Who ya got in Game 5 of the NBA Eastern Conference Finals tonight?
Add analysis, overconfidence, and feelings of doom in the comments.
The Indiana @Pacers are a win away from punching their ticket to the NBA Finals (and possibly a date with the Thunder) as they beat the Knicks 130-121 to take a 3-1 series lead.
@[email protected] this is exactly what I referenced in an earlier tweet about the #Pacers mindset so Siakam doesn't need the reminder from Carlisle
there's an attractive calmness to this Indiana tm that has spread across the board..they have no interest in premature celebrations
@[email protected] & the #Cavs lost to the #Magic in 2009
the name of the game is winning, not filling up the stat sheet
#Pacers took 2 games on the road at MSG & you can easily make the argument, they have yet to play a complete game on D & their best basketball
that's what I'm stressing heading home if I'm Rick Carlisle
I wonder if the city of Indianapolis will celebrate a 2-0 series lead by naming streets after #Pacers players
seems like a productive exercise
huge difference maker down the stretch was how the #Pacers exposed & took advantage of Mitchell Robinson..overdue
Turner's outside shooting on offense & the intentional fouls on defense
