Rebounding killed the Pacers in this game; they gave up an unthinkable 28 offensive boards and were ultimately out rebounded 51-29. In a game this close, you can't be giving your opponent more chances. Defensive rebounding would bite them again in another Game 7 four years later
Most def, most may point to game 5 vs Boston in 90, maybe game 1 vs Chicago of 92 but you figure the situation and how well he played with the foul trouble this was it.
