Battle Tyrese: Reviewing Pacers-Sixers Film
Added 2023-11-13 20:58:52 +0000 UTCAnd identifying possible adjustments for group play of the NBA's In-Season Tournament
By: Caitlin Cooper I @C2_Cooper
Welcome to the film room! With the Pacers and Sixers currently in the middle of a back-to-back, it seemed timely to review the film from the first regular season match-up on Sunday with an eye for potential tweaks that both teams might make before group play of the NBA In-Season Tournament on Tuesday. Turns out, "Battle Tyrese" (between Haliburton and Maxey) was definitely worth a second look, especially when considering how to contain the downhill momentum of the pick-and-roll, as well as the glass.
Let's get into it!
Here are the relevant timestamps:
0:00 - Welcome to the film room!
1:30 - Appreciating players named Tyrese
3:00 - "Defending" empty ball screens
7:22 - How other teams *actually* defended empty ball screens
18:30 - Oof, the middle ball screens didn't go any better
22:22 - Someone played solid defense (REALLY!)
23:30 - Cross-matching Turner and Toppin
27:00 - Thank you and good-bye (Enjoy the game!)

2023-11-14 19:48:02 +0000 UTCLearned a whole lot here! Any chance you'll be doing weekly film rooms? We won't have back to backs like this every week but would love for this to be a running series on how Pacers change/adapt coverages for specific players/archetypes/offenses throughout the year.
