10:23am, 19 June 2025Basketball
Pacers lost to the Thunder 109-120 away, losing two consecutive games to lead the game. They are currently passively falling behind 2-3 in the series. The two teams will face off in the sixth match and will return to the Pacers home court. Should they equalize and enter the tiebreak or fall 2-4? Wait for the good news!

In this game of Tianwang Mountain, the Pacers' team's preparations were obviously not as good as the Thunder. The rebounds on both sides were the only data that the Pacers got, with an advantage of 50-45, 9-15 steals, 4-12 blocks, 11-14 three-point shooting, and 30-32 free throws, while the number of fatal mistakes was twice as high as 22-11!
The Pacers have four players who have reached negative double digits on the court, which is simply a disaster-level existence. Halliburton lost 13 and made 0 of 6 shots and scored 4 points, 7 rebounds and 6 assists by only free throws. They lost themselves completely in this game. They are not the performance and level they should have as the core of the team. The team is inferior to Halliburton's average of 13 points per game in the series. Otherwise, the result will be a different matter!

Nestmith lost 12, made 5 of 9 shots, 4 of 5 three-pointers from the outside, scored 14 points, 6 rebounds and 1 steal. Although the data seems to be pretty good, Nesmith completely failed to perform his personal defensive end in this game, which led to the final result being a situation where he killed one thousand enemies and lost 800 himself!
Nembhard lost 12, scored 3 of 8 shots, scored 7 points, 3 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 steal. The overall performance of the series was mediocre, and he was even less explosive than McConnell on the bench. The efficiency and contribution value of this game was not as good as half of the substitute. The team can completely consider learning from the Thunder for adjustments in the starting lineup!

Pacers' bench performance is remarkable!
Substitute player Tot draw lost 16, with the highest team, 5 of 11 shots, 1 of 5 three-pointers, 12 points, 4 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 steal. As an important member of the bench, Tott draw failed to provide efficient performance on both offense and defense in this game. The outside feels sluggish and occupied 11 shooting opportunities, but the effect is very small. The Pacers need Tot draw with amazing performance in the third game and can stand out strongly!
The Pacers' best player is Siakam, who made 9 of 15 shots, 3 of 6 three-pointers, 7 of 8 free throws, scored 28 points, 6 rebounds, 5 assists, 3 steals and 2 blocks; the second one was outstanding in the bench, McConnell, who made 8 of 14 shots, scored 18 points, 4 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 steals, performed stably as always, and the fierce fighting spirit on the defensive end is a role model that the whole team needs to learn from; and Turner, who only made 5 shots in the game, scored 3 goals, 6 free throws, scored 13 points, 6 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 steal. His killing ability in the inside line was amazing, but he was obviously not in place in the frame. Individuals failed to effectively limit the Thunder's inside offense. The team only blocked 4 times, while the Thunder team reached 12 times. This is a performance that Turner, who has been the champion of blocks for several years, should not have!

Based on the above analysis, the Pacers' overall offensive efficiency is relatively low, and the details of the ball are not as good as the Thunder. The sluggish state of the core players is one aspect. To make matters worse, there are also 22 fatal mistakes, which also makes the Pacers, who are already inferior to their opponents on the offensive end, even more difficult, and is also the main reason for the defeat in this game!
