Pacers forward: I m not worried about Halliburton, Mathering and Toppin s aggressiveness

In a previous NBA Finals G3 game, the Indiana Pacers, who returned to their home court, defeated the Oklahoma City Thunder 116-107 and widened the total score of this round of series to 2-1. After this game, Pacers starting lineman Pascal Siakam, who performed well, was interviewed by reporters, and he also talked about the performance of three players, Tyrese Haliburton, Bennedict Mathurin and Obi Toppin.

Siakam said of Hallibur: He just needs to be himself. I'm not worried about his scoring issues at all because he can influence the game in various ways. As long as he keeps making the right judgment on the court, we can win the game. He then talked about Mathering's performance: his defensive activity is impressive, whether it is the whole game leading the defense or actively cutting, his aggressiveness is what we need. As long as he maintains such a game mentality, he can easily display his strength on the court.

Finally, Siakam also talked about Topin's performance, and he said: In my opinion, this is where his talent lies. As a big man, he has the top speed and athleticism in the league, and he is also a player who perfectly adapts to our system. I especially like the aggressiveness he showed on the court, whether it was active running on the defensive end or using his athletic ability to strike the opponent's penalty area. It was not just Toppin, but in fact the entire bench in this game was full of energy, and they had a huge impact on the trend of the game. We all know that Toping has such ability, and he has indeed brought his characteristics to the extreme.

In the series G3, Halliburton made 9 of 17 shots and 4 of 8 from outside the three-point line, and scored 22 points, 9 rebounds, 11 assists, 2 steals and 1 block. He also had 4 turnovers and 1 foul, with plus or negative values ​​+1. In 22 minutes and 24 seconds of playing time, Mathering made 9 of 12 shots, 2 of 3 from outside the three-point line, and 7 of 8 free throws, and scored the highest score of 27 points, 4 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 block. There was also 1 turnover, and the plus and negative value also reached the highest score of +16 in the game. Toppin made 4 of 8 shots in 27 minutes and 0 of 3 from outside the three-point line, scored 8 points, 6 rebounds, 1 assist and 2 blocks, and 1 turnover and 3 fouls. The plus and negative value reached the highest +18 in the game. Siakam said it is indeed good. The overall performance of these three players is very outstanding, which is also a key factor in the team being able to defeat their opponents. I don't know if they can maintain this form in the next game.
