I don´t know. This is based on what? Pacers won 47 games. Kings won 46 games. The difference in their post-season success is simply in the conference and the incredible injury luck the Pacers had with the Bucks and Knicks. I´m not sure the 19/8/5 that Haliburton put up in the post-season gets you anywhere in the West. He was also atrocious for Team USA. I don´t think he´s good enough of a scorer (yet) especially in combination with a guy like Sabonis, who averaged 16 PPG in his best post-season. Siakam´s career post-season average is higher than Sabonis current peak season.
I think the combinations are perfect as they are for both teams. Siakam is a better scorer than Sabonis. Sabonis is a better passer than Siakam. Fox is a better scorer than Haliburton. Haliburton is a better passer than Fox. Good synergy on both teams.
