The Indiana Pacers are going back to the conference finals for consecutive seasons after making a 19-point comeback against the Cleveland Cavaliers in Game 5 by a final score of 114-105.
I went on Locked on Pacers to discuss everything from Game 5 from Tyrese Haliburton’s incredible shotmaking, everyone starring in their roles to get the Pacers here, Cavaliers reactions to their 64-win season ending this way, the genius of Rick Carlisle, Thomas Bryant’s insane third quarter, Pascal Siakam being the needed buzzkill for this group, and more.
