Carlisle singing the praises of everyone on the team who stepped up in a big way with a lot of key guys out, BUT a special shoutout to the Pacers ultimate secret weapon - pissed off Colts fans. If you were part of the crowd from Lucas Oil Stadium that watched the dumpster fire that is the Colts, then stumbled over to the Fieldhouse to get out your frustration by yelling at the scumbag New York Knicks, thank you for your service. If only Kenny Moore was able to get some of his frustration out by going to the Pacers game, Indiana could have won by 50.

The Indiana Pacers had a lot of players who don't usually play step up and do their job to get the victory, but the most obvious keys to victory were Tyrese Haliburton coming out of his funk and looking like the superstar he is by having his finger prints all over the close out in the 4th Quarter.

Everyone knows Haliburton can be effective, but a lesser known player is Ben Mathurin aka Big Game Benny. Before his injury last season this man was a DAWG in big games. He showed up in the regular season to be a huge reason behind having a winning record against a healthy Bucks roster. Mathurin is a walking bucket, and after being pulled from a game for his rebounding effort, he has been great on the boards. LOVED this put back right over blue collar Josh Hart who completely forgets to box out.

Mathurin isn't a factor? So, next time a New York fan tries to talk shit about how the Pacers beat up on an injured Knicks roster in the playoffs, just show them this stat line and tell them to shut the fuck up.
