The intestine regrets the green! The abandoned Celtics becomes top 3D, shining the east final shot through the Knicks
Halliburton's extreme extremes reappear, recreating Miller's moment in Madison Gardens. Nemhard's key three-pointer in overtime set the tone for the team's victory. In the last moment, the team defended collectively and got off to a good start in the Eastern Conference Finals away.
At this time a year ago, they were also extremely close to winning the first match in the Eastern Conference Finals, but unfortunately they failed to block Jaylen Brown's three-pointer in the end, and they were unable to organize Tatum in overtime. A year later, the Pacers learned from their past lessons and successfully took away the victory.
And before all this magic came, it was not Halliburton, Siakam, Nembhard or Miles Turner who sounded the horn of the counterattack. Naismith, who was absent from the Eastern Conference Finals due to injury last year, made six three-pointers in the fourth quarter, setting an NBA record.
After the whole game, he made a total of 8 of 9 shots outside the three-point line, winning a career-high 30 points in his personal playoffs.
In fact, Nesmith was regarded as one of the most underrated players long before the start of the playoffs. After two mediocre seasons in Boston, Nesmith's steady climb in Indiana was unexpected. This season he has been among the 180 clubs (50.7% shooting percentage, 41.3% of three-pointers and 91.7% of free throws).
Although he only played 45 games due to an ankle injury, this is no accident: he had scored 49.6% of his shooting percentage and 41.9% of his three-point shooting percentage in the previous season, and his career free throw percentage reached 82.8%. He went up to the top in the playoffs, setting a 17.3 player efficiency value and a 67.2% true hit rate in the 10 games before the Eastern Conference Finals. What is even more commendable is that he achieved these data while taking on the most difficult defensive tasks - he stubbornly wrestled Donovan Mitchell against the Cavaliers in the second round, and was also responsible for the Eastern Conference Finals against Brunson.
When not hitting a three-pointer outside the three-point line, the desperate Saburo repeatedly contributed key rounds: the make-up dunk against the Cavaliers G2 ignited the reversal, and then created a Mitchell offensive foul, and G1 forced Ty Jerome to violate the rules in eight seconds.
"This is the embodiment of the will of reading the game," said Nesmith. "When you feel the energy is sluggish, you need to change the direction of the game with your actions. "
People around you will tell you an interesting contrast: Nesmith is a humble gentleman, but after he goes on the court, he turns into a fighting dog. The Pacers' PR director called him "the best man in the world", and the Celtic acquaintance and Vanderbilt University coach also gave the same comment.
When he came to Indiana through the Brogdon trade three years ago, the lottery show only wanted to gain a foothold. Although the Celtics regretted his professional attitude and potential, they had to give up Brogdon.
Nesmith proved that the Pacers are also winners with his actions. He took the initiative to ask to participate in the summer league. Coach Carlisle recalled: "Just July, he asked, "Can I play in the summer league?" After we confirmed that he was in shape, he immediately invested in three games. "
"After coming here, my game evolved comprehensively," Nesmith admitted, "Getting fault tolerance space allowed me to grow quickly. "
Transformation was not smooth. His efficiency was only 10.5 in the first season, plus or negative value -3.0. But gradually, he learned to look for opportunities around Halliburton and McConnell and grow into a top 3D energy player.
"He made great efforts in transitioning from the Boston system to our more freer and faster style." Carlisle commented.
Now these details have made Nesmith famous. Although it is still underestimated in the small market in Indiana, the 25-year-old has begun to be recognized by away fans. When the contract expires in 2027, he is expected to receive a significant salary increase. The performance of the first Eastern Conference Finals in Madison Gardens is the highest moment of his career so far. As of this game, Nesmith has made 35 three-pointers in the playoffs, ranking third in the league, with a shooting percentage of 53.8%.
In today's era, all teams are looking forward to having a perfect 3D player in their team. For Carlisle, he must be happy at this moment. "For me, it's probably the best feeling in the world, and it's so fun when that rim looks like an ocean," Nesmith said.
