Mark Daigneault credited the Pacers’ persistence after his team blew a 15-point fourth-quarter lead. “They keep coming, they keep playing,” he said. “They deserved to win by one.”
He pointed to OKC’s missed finishes in the paint and bonus fouls as crucial errors, despite strong bench play from Obi Toppin. “We’ve got to convert better in key moments,” Daigneault added.
Looking ahead to Game 2, he emphasized the team’s resilience: “We’ve built a habit of playing our best in the next game. We just need to reset and go again.”
