Indiana PacersGiannis Antetokounmpo talked to the media post-game trying to address the issues:
"Our offense wasn’t good," Antetokounmpo said. "Shots did not fall. It felt like it was Game 1. Guys get, like, anxious."
"They kind of inch in towards the ball because they want the ball, they want to make a play, they want to get themselves involved in the game, and I don’t think it’s from bad ego."
"I feel like everybody’s trying to do the right thing," Antetokounmpo continued.
"Everyone has the right intentions, but we just gotta be better, just having patience and just trusting. Trusting one another, trusting that the ball is going to find us, trusting that we’re going to make plays."
Doc Rivers also spoke after the match:
"I thought our offense was awful," Rivers said.
"We just didn’t play the way we played during this stretch (to close the season) offensively. And I thought we had a lot of missed shots, which allowed them to have a lot of breakouts."
"We had our mistakes defensively too, they were shooting 60 percent, but I thought, as your defense is connected to your offense, your offense is connected to your defense, and we’re not gonna beat them scoring 98 points."
"We’re not going to beat them when we have 15 assists and 10 turnovers,” Rivers concluded.
