Pacers' starters don't play with the same intensity as the bench tonight. So OKC races past them again.

If they gave me a cent for every uncalled Caruso foul I'd have like 10 cents this game alone

Transition defense by Pacers has been pretty terrible. Only reason OKC is tied.

OKC plays way better with iHart in the game. Stop the small ball.

That foul by Nembhard 30 feet from the basket was such a huge mistake.

This pace is much better for Indiana compared to Game 2.
