Pacers Pummel Pelicans, Thomas Bryant Debuts!

Alex and Facci are back to recap a tough loss to the best in the West, the Oklahoma City Thunder. In this game, Tyrese Haliburton did his far too often disappearing act, and only had 6 shot attempts for 4 points on the night. Meanwhile, superstar point guard, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander dropped 45 points on 15-22 shooting.

The guys discuss the biggest factors: Points in the Paint, Turnovers and Points off Turnovers. They dive into what is up with Haliburton, Mathurin's last 11 games and falling off offensively in the 2nd half, Turner's inefficient shooting night (specifically from 3), Siakam once again being too quiet in the 2nd half, Jarace Walker's highlight plays and how else he impacted the game, Obi Toppin's injury and a tough schedule tp end the calendar year with two games in Boston and Milwaukee at home.
