1). Christopher Lloyd
Pacers have had the deepest bench in the league, but typically for the playoffs coaches shorten it to 9 or even 8 guys who play. How deep do you think Carlisle will go in the playoffs, and who gets left on the bench?
2). David Matillo
Does Tyrese need to average 25 points for Pacers to win?
3). Chuck & Jamie
5 major things have changed since we last played the Bucks:
1. No Benn Mathurin to punch back vs the Bucks’ physicality
2. Tyrese’s regression since injury
3. No Buddy Hield
4. Addition of Siakam
5. Nesmith regression from injury
Which will have the most significant impact?
4). Q
With our defense improving every month since the last time we played them do you think this will be a series where Rick will have a better defensive plan for Giannis or do you think it will be like earlier this year where we just have to get timely stops and hope to outscore them
5). Chase Sasin
2 questions:
1. TJ has been unplayable in previous playoff series due to his inability to shoot from three. Is this something we should be concerned about, especially with him being the reason our bench is so successful?
2. Do you think we’re better equipped to defend giannis?
6). Aman Bakshi
We have experience with Bucks all season, but Doc is adding a wildcard with his Playoff tenure - what do you think we need to do to leverage our experience (or lack of) in the playoff to cover the Bucks successfully.
7). Schwarz Bruder & Carson Stafford
Seeing as how our gameplan is to run a lot, do you think Carlisle keeps up using a full 10 man rotation and just cuts back on minutes?
8). Dalton Chubb
Since we're back in the playoffs what's your guys favorite playoff memory? Mine Is Hibberts block on Melo, or Reggie banking in that 3 against the nets!
