2025 NBA FINALS: #1 Oklahoma City Thunder vs #4 Indiana Pacers (IND leads 1-0)

[doogie_hauser]

Astonishing the Pacers are only down 12 with so many sloppy and needless turnovers and Haliburton not doing much on offence.

If they can get hot from 3 point land they are well and truly in this.

Clear travel.

[RookieStar]

Feels like Thunder should be up 25 but its still close.

I will say I think OKC gets away with maybe a little too much contact defensively, but I prefer the games like this as long as they aren't calling it on the other end either.

Same... i feel that they dont call the samenon IND side... if SGA can get away with push offs... then the other team should as well

Haliburton isn't going to be able to just hide defensively. He's going to have to make an effort to at least stay in front of Wallace, who isn't even an offensive player like that yet.

[SpurNani]

Turner has been fing awful

Hali and turner are crashing out

Hali going passive for entire half's is quite a normal occurrence.

They have not even been bad from 3, okc is shooting the 3 ball worse than them

Feels like I'm watching a pre season game. Has there been anything worthy of a highlight yet? It's either a turnover a brick from 3.

i've been saying all along the way for hali to play this series is to just play like a spot up shooter

he has no business playing on ball with dort on his ass

dort is like the police in some matchups

Donovan and Brunson got to the paint at will against Indiana. Sgas been the leader in drives per game and drives to the rim for a few seasons now. Theres nothing Indiana can do to stop him

As great as their offense is they rely on attacking mismatches and defensive weaknesses relentlessly w/ pace. That works against teams that have weak defenders like Donovan and Garland and their role players like Jerome, Merrill or Knicks really bad w/ Brunson and Kat they could run 1/5 pick and roll any time they wanted and it was an auto bucket or foul but what about Okc? There are no weak defenders to exploit..............

If the Thunder can force the Pacers to be mainly a 3pt shooting team, then there is not much hope for the Pacers.

[Special_Puppy]

4 Turnovers for OKC. 22 for the Pacers.

That's the whole game right there

[___Rand___]

Dort is just hot.

[durden_tyler]

Wow Dort, that’s his 4th three right

5-threes for Dort. You're not gonna win when he's doing that.

[jehosafats]

Pacers have only 22pts in the paint. Why they're all standing around the perimeter, I don't know.
