For those of you who haven’t been nail biting every Thunder game I assure you nothing is over here yet
And winning or losing this game isn’t going to move me much for this extremely up and down team

The Pacers aren’t even shooting. The Thunder aren’t even forcing turnovers.
The Pacers are just throwing the ball away every time down the court.

The primary job of our bench isn't to score a ton. It's to allow us to play the same way we play with our starters while they get enough rest to be able to go 100% in the 4th. It's to keep our identity.
I understand that but more often than not it gives the opponent momentum. That’s the biggest reason I picked OKC in 5. Your bench allowed the Knicks to hang around too much.

This is how you go 80-19, folks. OKC is getting contributions from multiple guys who didn't even play in Game 1.

The first quarter was tight but was played at an Oklahoma City pace and in the second quarter seemingly Indiana has fallen out of it.

This OKC crowd is something else. It’s homogenized

Pacers are playing like the team that lost a heartbreaker in game 1, not OKC. Good bounceback game by OKC.

I think OKC blows this out and right the ship for the series.

Indy got 1.
I wouldn't push the team to go on an epic run. They'll run out of gas.

Wiggins 3pts in Hali's face off the bounce. Yikes.
