Indiana Pacers vs. Dallas Previous Match

The previous Indiana Pacers vs. Dallas match took place over half a year ago. In that match, the Indiana Pacers defeated the Dallas Mavericks. Domantas Sabonis had more than twenty points and fourteen rebounds. Malcolm Brogdon also got more than twenty points. The Indiana Pacers hit often and early from long range in their win over Dallas. The team got more than fifteen three-pointers led by Brogdon's match-winning effort. He matched the record for the franchise they set in this season. The win took them to four consecutive wins. Pacers coach Nate Bjorkgren said, "I thought it was a gritty effort, a grind-it-out win. It was a good team win. We are sharing it. We are playing hard for each other.”

Kristaps Porzingis had more than thirty points and seventeen rebounds for the Dallas team. The franchise was without its All-Star guard Luka Doncic because of back tightness. He was among the top five in the league in assists and scoring. Tim Hardaway Jr. had more than fifteen points. He is among the top league reserves in scoring. Dallas coach Rick Carlisle had said before the match that Doncic would go with the team in hopes of being available for the next match against New Orleans. He said they had the players and talent available to win the match that night. But they were not able to execute their plans properly. The Pacers got a lead of more than sixteen points early in the third quarter after outplaying Dallas from behind the arc to that mark. 

The team got a four-minute lead a couple of minutes into the fourth quarter. But Indiana responded with a twelve-point run to get the control back. The Pacers led by thirteen points at halftime after getting more than six three-pointers in the second quarter, while Dallas got only one. Myles Turner, the big man for the Pacers, graduated from high school near Dallas. He also went to the University of Texas for a single season. He led the league in blocks at nearly three-and-a-half a game going into the match. He had more than six blocks against Dallas. Bjorkgren said, ''He had run-down blocks, in-pursuit blocks. 'You think you might be giving up something at the rim. He came out of nowhere a few times and got his hand on it.''

In sending defensive experts West Iwundu and James Johnson to New Orleans for the match, experts JJ Redick and Nicolo Melli for the bench. Redick had been out of the team with a heel injury, and there was no timetable for his return. Donnie Nelson, the general manager of the Dallas Mavericks, said the team needs a different look. He said, ''JJ obviously is no stranger to playoff intensity, big shots in big moments,'' Nelson said. ''To put another shooter next to Luka is really important for us. And Melli provides us with just another solid locker room piece that can be kind of a utility guy, a glue guy of sorts.'' The away team won for the fourth consecutive match in this series. Doug McDermott of Indiana, who had more than eleven points and some three-pointers, went out in the second half with an ankle sprain. Porzingis got nearly fourteen points and rebounds in the first half. This is the first time that he got a double before halftime.
