Message: [QUOTE="Melancer46, post: 5056341, member: 1674"] The one thing I was kinda holding onto hope for with this matchup is that Indy absolutely massacred us in transition in the regular season because Griffin didn’t care at all about having us get back on defense for some reason. That was the first thing Doc fixed when he came in and at least for one game, it worked to perfection here. They only got a handful of buckets on the break and while some of the half court struggles was probably just unlucky 3 point shooting, it felt like Haliburton had to work way harder than he did in the regular season and a lot ended up falling on McConnell and Siakam to create. Indiana probably should double off of Beverley and try to force him to be the guy taking 3’s, but they defended us mostly straight up yesterday and Beverley was absolutely awesome as an outlet for Indiana’s pressure. I think he had like 6 or 7 assists in the second half alone and so many effort plays. [/QUOTE]
