The Indiana Pacers run to the NBA Finals has got me thinking.
They’re a team with a budding superstar in Tyrese Haliburton, and a supporting cast that fits his skills to a tee. They’re led by one of the best coaches in the game in Rick Carlisle and, top to bottom, the roster just make sense.
Everyone from Haliburton to Thomas Bryant fits.
But I’m not here to espouse the virtues of the 2025 Eastern Conference champs.
As great as Haliburton has been in this playoff coming out party, he’s got one hell of a sidekick next to him in Pascal Siakam.
