4:04pm, 17 June 2025【Basketball】
On June 17, G5 of the finals staged a battle of Kings Mountain at the Thunder. The Pacers started very badly in this game, obviously feeling inadequate in preparation, and the game was always behind, and the offense did not improve until the second half of the offense. The score difference was narrowed to one round in the final quarter, but at the critical moment, the Pacers made 4 consecutive mistakes and failed to make a big reversal again. The Thunder's Jewish exploded and scored 40 points in the whole game, and Alexander also scored 31 points. The Pacers lost to the Thunder 109-120 away, and fell behind 2-3 in a big score. Let's take a look at the performance of the Pacers players!
The two burned out
1. McConnell: 8 of 14 shots, 1 of 2 three-pointers, scored 18 points, 4 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 steals, plus or negative value +4, another representative game after the outbreak of G3 in the finals, the Pacers started with a bad start, McConnell made 1 of 4 shots in the first quarter, scored 2 points and 3 rebounds in the first quarter, and made a three-pointer in the second quarter. McConnell's performance time came, 8 in a single quarter 6 scored 13 points, 2 assists and 1 steal. Halliburton was injured and sat off the court. McConnell held the ball to support the team's offense. He broke through the mid-range shooting with one hand to help the team narrow the gap to single digits, and also scored 2+1 at a time, giving the Pacers hope to turn the tables in the final quarter, but the Pacers' main performance was not good in the final quarter. McConnell didn't get a chance to play until the last three minutes. If he had played early, the Pacers might have the power to play.
2. Siakam: 9 of 15 shots, 3 of 6 three-pointers, scored 28 points, 6 rebounds, 5 assists, 3 steals and 2 blocks, with a positive and negative value -5. He felt good at the beginning and scored 5 points in a row, but he made frequent mistakes. It was a bit inappropriate to make 3 mistakes in a single quarter. However, Siakam is the point that the team relies on most on the offense of the position. He can frequently create kills and stand on the free throw line. He scored 14 points in the last quarter, helping the team narrow the gap to 2 points, which is already dedicated. However, Halliburton is in poor condition, and Siakam is unable to make the day alone.
The two are good
1.Nesmith: 5 of 9 shots, 4 of 5 three-pointers and scored 14 points, 6 rebounds and 1 steal, plus or negative value -12, got a foul shortly after the start, but also made a three-pointer. The performance of the offense and defense of the whole game was remarkable. He scored a three-pointer at the end of the final quarter, and a patch was very impressive.
2. Turner: 3 of 5 shots, 1 of 2 three-pointers, 13 points, 6 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 steal, plus or negative value -7, Turner has been troubled by the flu in the last three games, and his physical condition is not at his best. Carlisle can only use Bradley and did not give Tob a chance, which is debatable, but Turner performed well in his limited playing time and has very good restrictions on Homegren, which has made the latter only 4 of 15 shots in the game and has not scored in double digits. The Pacers need Turner's defense and space attributes very much.
Three people were poor
1. Halliburton: 0 of 6 shots scored 4 points, 7 rebounds and 6 assists, and scored 4 points with free throws, with a plus-minus value -13. It was suspected that the calf was being wounded shortly after the start. There was no rhythm on the offensive end, and the opponent was given 2+1 on the defensive end. He made many pass mistakes in the final quarter, resulting in the team's final defeat. As the core, it is difficult for the team to win.
2.Nembhard: 3 of 8 shots, 0 of 2 three-pointers, scored 7 points, 3 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 steal, with a positive and negative value -12, he was very hesitant on the offensive end, and he chose to refuse to shoot with three-pointers, losing his previous sharp style of play. The defense restricted Alexander quite well, and the team did not support him on the main offensive end.
3.Matherin: 2 of 11 shots, 1 of 4 three-pointers, scored 7 points, 8 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 block, plus or negative value +6, failed to make the free throw in the last moment of the last game, failed to complete a strong rebound in this game, and started to make both free throws, but then frequently made a blacksmith, and failed to perform the magical performance of G3 again, and was very struggling.
Toping performed well in this game, with 5 of 11 shots, contributing 12 points, 4 rebounds and 1 assist, and 1 of 5 three-pointers. If it is like the first game, the Pacers have a chance to win.
