The Straits Times
|May 19, 2024
The Indiana Pacers produced another big win on their home court on May 17, routing the New York Knicks 116-103 to force a decisive Game 7 in their National Basketball Association (NBA) Eastern Conference semi-final, play-off series.
-
Pascal Siakam scored 25 points to lead Indiana's scoring. Tyrese Haliburton added 15 with nine assists and Myles Turner had 17 points as six players scored in double figures.
On the brink of elimination after an embarrassing 121-91 Game 5 defeat in New York, the Pacers played with desperate aggression, outscoring the Knicks 62-38 in the paint and winning the rebounding battle 47-35.
They hustled after loose balls, blocked eight shots and handed out 35 assists to keep their offence firing, and kept Knicks talisman Jalen Brunson in check for much of the night as they improved to 6-0 at home in this post-season.
