1:09pm, 27 June 2025【Basketball】
In the NBA Finals G6, the Indiana Pacers easily defeated the Oklahoma City Thunder 108-91. This game has turned the total score of the two sides' series into 3-3, and will have a life-and-death tiebreak battle in Oklahoma City, which will determine the title of this season.
In this game, Pacers substitute Caruso performed poorly, becoming one of the troughs in the playoffs this season. Caruso played in the whole game for only 2 minutes and 1 second, with 2 shots and 1 0 three-pointers, with only 3 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 steal in total, and 1 turnover and 1 foul, with averaging positive and negative values of -33. He made no achievements on the offensive end, his scoring ability and organizational ability disappeared, and he did not perform his role on the defensive end, failing to create an opponent's threat. Caruso was originally an all-around player with both offense and defense. He performed poorly in this game and bizarrely lost his level. The plus or negative value of -33 demonstrates how bad the team was when he was playing.
In the regular season, Caruso missed 28 games due to injury, averaged 19.3 minutes per game, contributed 7.1 points, 2.9 rebounds, 2.5 assists, 1.6 steals, 0.6 blocks, shooting percentage of 44.6%, three-point shooting percentage of 35.3%, and free throw shooting percentage of 82.4%. In the first 22 games of the playoffs, he averaged 24.1 minutes per game, with 9.2 points, 2.7 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 1.9 steals and 0.5 blocks, and his efficiency was good. However, the performance in this game was shocking and out of line with his usual performance in the playoffs.
Caruso performed well in the playoffs, with high influence and deterrence, and played a key role in the Thunder's success. But the sudden ups and downs of this game were surprising. He urgently needed to adjust his condition and strive to cheer up in the next life-and-death battle in the G7 and assist the team in winning the championship.
