2025 NBA FINALS: #1 Oklahoma City Thunder vs #4 Indiana Pacers (Series tied 3-3, Game 7 Sunday!)

[Dainis]

Why is is that when basketball and soccer players get injured, they cry like little girls?

Biggest game of his life. On top of the mountain. Somethings aren’t about pain loser

You a loser.

[zshawn10]

Wallace only got a steal because he held on to tj lol

[mattg]

Indiana needs TJ and Nembhard on the court together. The blatant grab and hold by OKC obviously makes it impossible to handle the pressure with only 1 handler on the court.

[WuTang_CMB]

this sucks

[kwajo]

Do we really need a slo-mo of the injury and Haliburton's reaction?? Shameful network.

Agreed, please stop showing that.

[littlerock2277]

Man that is so depressing. I pray it’s not an Achilles injury.

[eyeatoma]

Hali tore his Achilles. I warned in the last game thread that would happen.

It’s wild how playing with a calf injury always seems to lead to Achilles injuries

It's not weird, unfortunately it happens nearly all the time. It's obviously the finals, and I understand taking the risk, because you might never get there again, but that leg is a ticking timebomb. So risky. Don't **** with calf injuries.

[meatball sub]

So OKC not only gets the benefit of the hali injury but they get the benefit of this nonsense officiating too

Do we really need a slo-mo of the injury and Haliburton's reaction?? Shameful network.

I expect nothing less from ESPN/ABC

[SportsGuru08]

The whole ESPN crew can take a MASSIVE L for making fun of Hali saying he wasn't really injured on the pre-game

Another reason to despise ESPN's NBA coverage, as if I needed another.

[Bank Shot]

Well, no excuses for Cleveland next year

[DowJones]

So now OKC can literally grab your arm while you're dribbling?

Exactly, That isn’t good defense, it is officiating rewarding sloppy defense.

[duppyy]

Do we really need a slo-mo of the injury and Haliburton's reaction?? Shameful network.

TV networks are always shameless

[ArksNetsSince99]

What if the Pacers still win this game?

If they do it will be a definition of the WORST and BEST day for all Pacers fans combined in ONE DAY

I wish them to Win like I never did before for any other team

[QMemphis]

OKC just allowed to do whatever on defense. Meanwhile SGA gets the softest whistle ever.

Been that way all year

[PistolPeteJR]

So sad man…

[Rainwater]

TJ playing like dog ****

Dude was fouled

[lambchop]

is that really an achilles? unusual way to tear your achilles isn’t it? hope for his sake it’s not

I would say that's how you usually tear your achilles. Kobe/KD did very similar moves.

This. They all look the same. It's the one injury us keyboard doctors can diagnose from the comfort of our homes with close to 90% accuracy.

[JimmyPlopper]

Man that is so depressing. I pray it’s not an Achilles injury.

Unfortunately it was

[scrabbarista]

Mathurin, a gunner, is WIIIIDE open for a transition pull-up three and waits for the defense to catch up before making his move into a wild contested layup. He needs his confidence back.

ASAP

He needs a brain. Dude will end up in China with his current basketball IQ

He's fine. He just needs to shoot when he's open.
