Can the Pacers Strike Again? Game 2 Against the Thunder Could Define Their Championship Hopes
We aren’t saying none of these bench guys should play. But Carlisle definitely needs to tighten up his rotation to ensure that at least two or three starters are on the floor at all times.
This became evident when the Pacers started out the fourth quarter with a lineup of McConnell/Sheppard/Mathurin/Siakam/Bryant and was outscored 9-3 in just over two minutes. This stretch almost cost the Pacers the game, but Carlisle switched back to the starters before it was too late.
He can’t afford to let this happen again, however.
