Hit open looks from long range.

Push the pace and force turnovers.
Use their rebounding advantage (36–31 RPG).
Lean on Clark’s playmaking to create open shots.

Indiana’s more disciplined defense, stronger depth, and rebounding margin should control the game. Los Angeles can stay within reach if Plum and Stevens get hot—but without frontcourt help and plagued by turnovers, they’ll struggle to keep up.
