However, the game was indeed somewhat boring. The slow pace and overly intense confrontation made scoring exceedingly difficult for both teams.
In the previous four games, none of them scored over 100 points, with the highest being 93 points and the lowest 78 points.
It wasn't until the second quarter that both teams gradually picked up the pace, their shots got warmer, and the scoring started to increase.
At this point, the Pacers leveraged their home court advantage, playing with immense momentum and widening the score gap in one go.
They achieved a 10-point lead in the first half, which was significant in a defensive battle like this.
"Dad, did you place a bet, who do you think will win?"
"If it's not your game, I won't bet… I don't think the Pacers are doing well."
"The Pacers are ahead by 10 points, isn't that something? The score will be very low."
