Can the Pacers Strike Again? Game 2 Against the Thunder Could Define Their Championship Hopes
Having so many bodies to turn to allows the Pacers to play their patented up-tempo pace – it’s served them very well up to this point. But this is the NBA Finals and the Thunder are the Pacers’ best opponent, so they can’t afford to go even a few minutes without their heaviest hitters.ÂÂ
In Game 1, Ben Sheppard (minus-12), T.J. McConnell (-13), Bennedict Mathurin (-8), and Thomas Bryant (-9) all finished with a -8 plus/minus or lower. Meanwhile, all of the starters except Siakam (who is usually the only starter on the floor with the reserves) finished at plus-8 or higher.
