The Pacers targeted the right secondary star with the Pascal Siakam trade, and it changed everything for them.

Siakam's 39 points were a career-playoff high as the veteran forward has been a steady presence on the court and in the locker room.

In covering the Western Conference Finals, Green talked about his troubles guarding Julius Randle, but he also named a specific Indiana Pacer as someone who "destroyed" him. "I lost my matchup to Julius Randle. The only other time I really felt like I lost my matchup in a series was against Pascal Siakam …He destroyed me.” Said Green.
