Curious

Indiana, but only marginally.

First because I always have (and probably always will) disliked the Oklahoma City Thunder just a little because of the circumstances around their move from Seattle. This isn't the fault of their fans or players and I'm sure some older franchises have equally unsavory stories but this one I know for sure isn't the way I want these things to go.

Second because OKC's roster is so strong and they have so many excess future picks that they are likely to be top contenders for a long time. Indiana's future prospects are far from bad but IMO not near as promising.

But ultimately, I just want a good series without injuries and with a minimum of cause for complaint about officiating. To me that's the holy trinity of a NBA Finals.

I dont want Obi or Hartenstein to win and i really really dislike both haliburton and SGA.

my ideal scenario would be that both teams lose. but i guess thats not gonna happen. so i dont care really. also havent watched a full game yet.

//Edit

carlisle deserves one, hes an insane coach and i dont have hard feelings towards him. so i guess its the pacers? And east bragging rights for the debate and so Incredible overrated and "stacked" west

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

for OKC.

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY

for IND.

OKC, because I like their style of play and I predicted that they'd win the title in preseason.

Very impressed by the Pacers, though, it's a huge punching-above-your-weight job, and I appreciate that a lot especially since I'm a Heat supporter.

Indifferent, I dislike Indiana strongly especially Halliburton but I also dislike the glazing OKC gets but I guess I would choose them over Indiana. I don’t have anything against OKC player’s but I’m not exactly rooting for them either.

Usually when my team is eliminated I’d go with status quo option so not to have to deal with another cocky entitled fanbase puffing their chest out

Seemed everyone turned on Halliburton and Pacers after last game which is understandable. If he’s injured just sit instead of killing your team with missed shots and bad turnovers. If he can “walk he can play” according to him

7.

Been rooting OKC. As a Bulls fan, I want one of the guys largely responsible for the only brief periods of recent joy (Caruso) to get a real ring.

Yet found myself rooting for Indiana last night.

This is over next game. OKC knows it’s one game away, and Indy can’t win against them going full tilt and having a hurting Haliburton.

OKC, but because I bet money on them winning championship...

No one.

Thunder

OKC

Pacers

I’ve been rooting for this to be over more than anything. Since I’ve been watching basketball this is easily the least I’ve tuned in to a finals series.

I don’t mind Shai capping off a legendary season with a title though, so slight favor to OKC.

Rooting for Indiana. They're fun, and OKC beat Denver, which is who I really was rooting for, heheh.

But either team who wins is fine, they're both fun teams. SGA is one of my favorite players in the league to watch.

I don't care for either team, but going in I thought I was routing for OKC. I told myself I wanted to see fellow Canadian SGA get a ring. And Haliburton just seems super cocky so I don't really like him much. But when the first game started I found myself pulling for Indiana. I guess I just automatically always end up cheering for the underdog if I don't have a real interest in the teams. I do like Siakam and the Pacers have 2 Canadians as well, and I do love their yellow jerseys lol. I would like to see them shock everyone and finish off this incredible run. But it's appearing rather unlikely at the moment.

Nuntius.

I don't care who wins per say but I would like to see SGA do something special - MVP- FMVP with the youngest roster in the league-

I don't care who wins per say but I would like to see Indy win one without a MVP caliber player...that hasn't happened since Detroit-

some of you guys hate this series but I love it...its kinda evenly matched...the west is NOT that much better than the east...when teams face off for 7 games...they players and coaches find a way...these are not super teams...these are teams built the right way for parity in mid to small markets...I love this. no matter who wins the nba fans wins.

Indiana. I enjoy their style of play more...plus it would be very funny if after people spent all season telling us nobody could compete with BOS / CLE / OKC and how weak the east is, if two of those teams lost to the 4th seed from the east...with the third having lost to a team Indy beat.

OKC so Silver can do something about the talent imbalance in the NBA, something that's an actual problem over something minor like the All-star game
