Jalen Brunson’s Game 5 Masterclass: Did the Knicks Just Unearth an NBA Superstar?
It also helped that the Pacers didnât target him nearly as much on defense. They didnât have as much movement in general.
The team spent a lot of time isolating against Karl-Anthony Towns when he was on the floor, which isnât a bad strategy. Towns can struggle in space against quicker forwards like Pascal Siakam and the focus on Towns directly led to foul trouble that kept him out of part of the third quarter.
But the Pacers are one win away from the Finals because of their constantly moving offense that Haliburton has orchestrated. The offense goes through him, but it can end with anybody. The Pacers are a their best when theyâre in constant motion, a tornado of unselfishness and unpredictability.
