Carlisle was asked why he went to the end of the bench that early. “To look at some guys that I thought needed a look,” Carlisle said. “McDermott went in there and played well. Isaiah Jackson brought a lot of fight to the game. Jalen Smith hasn’t had much of an opportunity to play in the playoffs, so I wanted to see where he was at. We weren’t giving up, but it was an opportunity to get some energetic fresh guys in there to fight. They did some good things.” -via Indianapolis Star / May 24, 2024
