Well, maybe the Pacers can try again in Game 2

Pacers panicking bad.  Which is a shame, as they look faster and more talented than Milwaukee

The Pacers will settle down and make a run. It will be interesting to see how the Bucks respond then.

Haliburton needs to became the Haliburton from the first half of the season that was a menace.

I wonder if Siakam disrupts Haliburton's game. I thought Siakam may do so when they acquired him but things seemed to work reasonably well early. Siakam took more of a back seat and the chemistry seemed to work. So I am not sure if it a chemistry issue or a Haliburton not performing issue.

The reason I worry about Siakam disrupting Hali's game is because Siakam is a heavy ball-handling / iso type attacker. He stalls the offense while he works one-on-one or in a PnR. The offense had much more rhythm when it was just Hali and the ball would keep coming back to him. Now the offense breaks off and switches over to Siakam.

I don't know. Maybe. Maybe not.

Yeah, I think Indy should be able to run Milwaukee off the floor in this series. With or without Giannis.

Terrible defense by Siakam. So undisciplined.

Wow I didn't realize until the TNT crew said it, but yeah so far all the home teams have won Game 1. This one is trending that way too and OKC will probably win tonight.

Pacers 0-12 from 3, and Lillard is red hot. Not a good combination

Haha, why did Myles Turner make that elaborate rolling hook shot? Just take the little baby hook. You had a 6-4 SG on you. He can't block your shot. Instead you overcomplicated it and gave Brook Lopez time to cover and reject your weak shot.

Play simple. Please.

They said Siakam has 15pts. Indy has only 29pts.

Haliburton is barely touching the ball on a large number of these possessions. Not involved in Q2.

These games with 25pt leads are not interesting. No decent game so far today. Only one more to go.
