Biggest key to the win? Myles Turner's start gets my vote.
For those wondering – No, Rick "Weeks, Not Months" Carlisle did not change the starting lineup, nor did he change the team's pace.
I did not see the game but looking from the highlights they have time from 1st half with all 2nd unit. I think from the sratement of Rick is to consistently play 10 players were spot on for this game.
Bruce also was doing more ball handling this time. But still hali have 4 turonvers
And yes defense was better but it is the hornets.
I noticed also if hield plays better they win i dont know.
Very silent effective production of myles and nesmith as always
Most improve player for me for pacers is jalen smith and nesmith.
I agree with you Tony. The playing time lineup adjustment was effective. Looking forward tomorrow if the adjustment will be effective tomorrow.
Myles need to go to the weight room. Look what it did for Jalen Smith
I'm just glad they DIDN'T Gordon Hayward COOK em…Of ALL PLAYERS We have allowed this HIPSTER to hoop on us.
Buddy deserves MORE credit DEFENSIVELY. His effort is there, and duse seems to get a BLOCK every game.
They finally looked the way they're supposed to look against weaker teams. No more playing down to the competition.
Got a W sgwinst a weak team. Don't think there was any big adjustment s.
A whole podcast on this? Easy, they played a lamelo-less Hornets. Thats how
Everyone and their mother has been beating the hornets the pacers were always gonna win this game smh 🤦
