Pacers backcourt core: We didn t do well in G5, we want to improve the rhythm of the game

In a previous NBA Eastern Conference Finals G5, the New York Knicks, who played at home, defeated the Indiana Pacers NBA playoff G5 111-94, and tied the series' score to 2-3. After this game, Tyrese Haliburton, the Pacers' backcourt core, was interviewed by the media, and he also talked about his poor performance and the team.

When talking about his poor performance, Halliburton said: The Knicks have changed some things on the defensive end, but most of their basic strategies have not changed. They have increased their pressure on our players and as the game deepens, they try to put more pressure on us. We must set the rhythm of the game better and impact the opponent's inside line more. I feel that I have not done well, so I will go back to watch the video. We will also make adjustments in Game 6. Halliburton continued: Our overall performance is indeed not good enough, we have too many mistakes, and we have not been able to reach the average level of the series in terms of rebounding. When you don't do these two points well in countless rounds that can determine the game in a game, the game will naturally become very difficult. I think the pace of the game needs to be improved, and this also needs to start with me. We have to be better as a team, and I have to be better at that. During the playoffs, Halliburton has made a total of 14 appearances so far, averaging 35 minutes per game, averaging 18.7 points, 5.7 rebounds, 9.5 assists, 1.3 steals, 0.7 blocks, and 1.8 turnovers and 1.9 fouls. He shot 46.1%, three-point shooting percentage and 33% from the free throw percentage, and 80% from the free throw percentage. In the series G5, Halliburton's series of performances were simply terrible. During his 31-minute and 34-second playing time, he made 2 of 7 shots, 0 of 2 from the three-point line, and 4 of 5 free throws. He only scored 8 points, 2 rebounds, 6 assists, 2 steals and 1 block. He also made a foul, and the plus-negative value was also low to -23.

Halliburton's performance during the playoffs was actually good. He had good scoring skills, reliable organization and tandem skills, and his performance on the defensive end was not that bad. As the team's backcourt core, his series of outstanding performances are also an important factor in the team's ability to continue to pass the hurdles and reach the Eastern Conference Finals and have an advantage in the Eastern Conference Finals. In the next G6, the Pacers still hold the match point. In this case, Halliburton, as the core figure of the team, showed his due level and helped the team defeat his opponent at home, successfully reach the finals and launch an attack on the championship?
