Pacers Inside Pillar: Each of us has the determination, we need to prove our abilities

NBA Finals G2 is about to begin. After daily training, Indiana Pacers' inside player Myles Turner was interviewed by reporters, and he also talked about his feelings of leading 1-0 in the finals and his feelings when he was a "lower dog" (the unpopular side) in the playoffs.

When talking about the team's temporary lead in the finals, Turner said: We have completed the away mission, we have won a victory at the opponent's home court, but there are three wins to win, and we still have the mission to complete. At this stage, we must never leave anything to luck. We know that there is absolutely no such thing as a saying that even if you lose, you will still be honored in the finals. I totally agree with this point of view, do you know?

When talking about the team playing in the playoffs below, Turner continued: In the final analysis, we always maintain the team mentality of striving for everything by ourselves. You can check out our lineup: Aaron Nesmith was traded, TJ McConnell had also traded, Tyrese Haliburton was traded, Andrew Nembhard was even just a second round pick. When you list this information you will find that everyone on the team carries this determination to prove their abilities. It is through these similar experiences that our team has become more united.

In the NBA regular season this season, Turner played 72 games in 82 games, averaging 30.2 minutes per game, averaging 15.6 points, 6.5 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 0.8 steals and 2 blocks, and 1.7 turnovers and 2.5 fouls, shooting percentage of 48.1%, three-point shooting percentage of 39.6%, and free throw shooting percentage of 77.3%. In the playoffs, Turner averaged 30.2 minutes in the first 17 games, with averaging 15.2 points, 5.2 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 0.6 steals and 2.3 blocks, and 1.8 turnovers and 3 fouls. He shot 52.4% from the field, 40.3% from three-pointers, and 77.5% from free throws.

Turner's performance during the playoffs is obvious to everyone. He has performed quite well on both offense and defense. He is a reliable scorer. He has stable scoring ability at the basket and shooting ability from the outside on the offense. He also has good franchise protection ability. The Pacers' ability to beat their opponents who are ranked higher than their own and enter the finals during the playoffs is also closely related to Turner's outstanding performance. In the next finals, can Turner continue to perform like this and help the team win the championship?
