Pacers backcourt: We have stalled on the offensive end, we need to do better

In the previous NBA Finals G4, the Oklahoma City Thunder defeated the Indiana Pacers who played at home 111-104, tied the total score of the series to 2-2, and both sides also returned to the same starting line. After this game, Pacers' backcourt player Andrew Nembhard also accepted an interview with reporters, and he also summarized the team's defeat in this game in the interview.

In response to this, Nemhard said: We had an offensive stagnation in the final stage of the game, and our pace was significantly slowed down, which also led to us missing some key shots and we didn't get enough points in the last moment. Although we did a good job of organizing and passing the ball for most of the game, our stagnation on the offensive end in the last moment really made it difficult to catch up points. This defeat was indeed difficult for us, but fortunately, we will be able to get a chance to revenge in two days. The most important thing for us now is to adjust our form, and we need to prepare for the next game. I believe that if we can adjust our form, we will have a full chance to rebound strongly in the next game.

In the NBA regular season this season, Nemhard made a total of 65 appearances in 82 games, averaging 28.9 minutes per game, averaging 10 points, 3.3 rebounds, 5 assists, 1.2 steals and 0.2 blocks, and 1.7 turnovers and 2.3 fouls, shooting percentage of 45.8%, three-point shooting percentage of 29.1%, and free throw shooting percentage of 79.4%. In the playoffs, Nemhard has made a total of 20 appearances so far, averaging 33.3 minutes per game, averaging 12.4 points, 3.3 rebounds, 4.7 assists, 1.6 steals, 0.3 blocks, and 1.8 turnovers and 2.8 fouls. His shooting percentage is 47%, three-point shooting percentage is 46.1%, and free throw shooting percentage is 77.1%.

Nemhard said it was certainly correct. The team had obvious problems on the offensive end at the last moment. They did not restrict their opponents' offense, and they themselves had some problems on the offensive end. If they want to rebound in the next game, they must make a bigger breakthrough on both sides of the offense and defense. On the other hand, Nemhard himself performed quite well in the playoffs. He is an all-around player with both offense and defense, and he is also able to take on more responsibilities and tasks on the court. In the next game, I don’t know if the Pacers will adjust the team’s lineup and tactical arrangement. Can Nemhard gain more ball rights and higher tactical status and help the team make breakthroughs in the finals?
