Does really feel like this is the most balanced team we’ve seen in a long time. Tyrese is definitely a star as well as Siakam/Turner but none are really top 10. Their depth has been the difference maker.
Let’s go!

Halliburton, Siakam, Obi Toppin, and everyone else plays defense and is unselfish too. Rick Carlisle is a great coach. And OKC’s stars aren’t as experienced with playoff basketball. They’re more talented and obviously will be the favorites in a game 7 at home. SGA might go off and score 50. But winning the regular season in the NBA is way different than winning a 7 game series against experienced players who have been there before. Even the refs make different foul calls in the playoffs.
I have high expectations for OKC and SGA is the best player in the league but this Pacers roster is kind built for playoff basketball.
