At worst this series is going 7. OKC have less composure on the road.

Outside of that weird officiating stretch, this has been a fantastic finals

Making 1 three and only down 3 is a pretty big positive for OKC

Does SGA really look like an MVP to you, if the flopping and whistle isnt there?

Did people really say this is the best team of the 2000's? Better than 2017/2018 Warriors, better than 2023 Nuggets, better than 2014 Spurs? Better than Kobe/Pau?

Through 3 and a half games, 3 points separate the two clubs. I got this series dead wrong so I have no confidence in my ability to predict the outcome going forward.

This isn't like the Denver series where Denver was just getting lucky. Indiana's playing great.

Firing Thibs for losing to this team is going to haunt the Knicks. I know he has his faults but he's a solid coach.

Wouldn't it be funny if Knicks asked Thibs to return and he, too, declined?

Given the turnovers and the questionable whistle, Pacers gotta feel good being up 2.

Strong finish to the half for Hali.

Espn calls a crappy game. They are pushing talking points and not calling the game.

They should be glad that the Pacers are here. I admitt I am here to watch these guys win.

OKC has looked awful tonight
Refs kept the game from blowing up by controlling the tempo and allowing a straight up gross one-way whistle
Let's see if they let them play in the second half!

SGA looks so out of it, not sure if that’s how he usually plays. But his body language looks bad out there. He just looks lazy out there today.
