FMVP is waving to him! Can the Pacers forward maintain this level in the G7?

Basketball

In the previous NBA Finals G6, the Indiana Pacers, who returned to their home court, easily defeated the Oklahoma City Thunder 108-91. After this game, the Pacers tied the total score of the series to 3-3, and both sides returned to the same starting line again. Next, both sides will return to Oklahoma City and have a brutal tiebreak battle, which will also determine the final ownership of the championship this season.

In this game, Pacers' starting line leader Pascal Siakam still plays a mainstay. Siakam played 32 minutes and 02 seconds in the whole game, made 6 of 14 shots, 1 of 3 from outside the three-point line, and 3 of 3 free throws, scoring 16 points, 13 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 block, including 5 frontcourt rebounds, 1 turnover and 2 fouls, and the plus and negative value also reached +13. Siakam maintained a stable offensive efficiency on the offensive end. He also relied on his own enthusiasm to win a large number of frontcourt rebounds. He also scored a lot of points through various methods, and he also showed certain passing ability and support ability. Siakam's performance on the defensive end is also remarkable. He is also a very good defender, and he has also done a pretty good job in backcourt rebound protection. Siakam's performance in this game can still be described as both offense and defense, which is also an important factor in the team being able to easily defeat the opponent.

In the NBA regular season this season, Siakam played a total of 78 games in 82 games, averaging 32.7 minutes per game, averaging 20.2 points, 6.9 rebounds, 3.4 assists, 0.9 steals and 0.5 blocks, and 1.4 turnovers and 2.4 fouls, shooting percentage of 51.9%, three-point shooting percentage of 38.9%, and free throw shooting percentage of 73.4%. So far in the playoffs, Siakam has averaged 33.3 minutes in the first 22 games, with averaging 20.7 points, 6.5 rebounds, 3.5 assists, 1.2 steals and 0.7 blocks, and 1.3 turnovers and 2.9 fouls. His shooting percentage is 51.8%, his three-point shooting percentage is 42.9%, and his free throw shooting percentage is 72.2%.

Siakam's performance during the playoffs can be said to be extremely stable. He has hardly missed the chain. He has always played the role he should play on both offense and defense. He won the honor of MVP in the previous Eastern Conference Finals, which is also the greatest recognition of his outstanding performance. In the finals, although the team cannot maintain sufficient competitiveness in every game, Siakam can still fully utilize his abilities and characteristics. For the Pacers, whether they can win in the tiebreak battle next may also be closely related to whether Siakam can continue to perform like this. I don’t know if Siakam can maintain his form in the tiebreak battle and strive to become the FMVP this season.
