Early Saturday morning, G3 of the East Coast semifinals of the NBA playoffs continued, with the Pacers returning home to face the New Yorkers. Although there are many young people in the Pacers team and they are full of energy, most of them lack playoff experience and are slightly lacking in stamina. In the first two games of the series, they were reversed by their opponents in the second half, and their morale suffered a big blow. This G3 home game, The Pacers continue to lose and the New Yorkers have a high chance of winning the match point.

A major feature of the team coached by head coach Rick Carlisle is its strong offense. This feature continued after the Pacers entered the NBA for the second time. This regular season averaged 123.3 points per game, making it the strongest offensive team in the entire league. In the playoffs, the Pacers' offense also maintained very well, scoring at least 120 points in 5 of 8 games. Their sharp offense also helped them defeat the Bucks in the first round. However, when they faced the New Yorkers in the semi-finals, the Pacers encountered great difficulties. The latter performed very well in the first half of the first two games. Shiagan and Charlie Biton had stable output. However, in the second half, the Pacers were Unable to withstand the New Yorkers' crazy counterattack and lacking trustworthy scoring points at the last moment, the team eventually lost. Behind with a big score of 0 to 2, G3 returned to the home court. The Pacers need to make changes. Whether they can continue their lead in the first half and whether they can withstand the opponent's counterattack in the second half is what coach Carrisley and his coaching team need more. Question to think about, once the effect is not good, if Jinpu loses again, the journey of this season will probably stop here. In terms of lineup, defender Madurian is injured.

The New Yorkers under Tom Thibodeau entered the playoffs this season as the second-place finisher in the regular season. He was very cautious in employing personnel in the playoffs. Short rotations are the coach's coaching style. The team basically It is a 7-8 man rotation, and the main players play a lot of time. Currently, J. Binson , Zuschatt and Anunoby (who are injured in this game) average at least 40 minutes per game in the playoffs, among which Zuschatt series He played the entire game in the first two games, which can be called an ironman. It is precisely because of the short rotation and the long-term maintenance of the main force that the New Yorkers made a late effort to reverse the Pacers in the first two games of the series and took a 2-0 lead, and their morale was high. It is worth mentioning that compared to the Pacers, a major advantage of the New Yorkers is that they have J. Binson , who can be called the "Mr. Key". He scored 14 points in the last quarter of G2 and was the hero of the reversal. In the fourth quarter of this season's playoffs, Ranking first with 10.4 points per game, I believe that under the leadership of J. Binson , the New Yorkers can still win when G3 goes to Indiana. In terms of manpower, forwards Landu and Bodanuyu are out of work due to injuries.
