The Thunder have no defender for Spicy P. Indiana should run their offense through him as much as possible

Great start. IND looks reasonably comfortable.

Siakim got 2 easy switches on Wallace and scored easily and then they just left nembhard completely wide open for an easy 3. This stuff is to easy.

I set my alarm for 8 minutes after the gametime, just because ESPN never starts a game on time, so of course I miss the first 3 minutes of the game. It was 7-3 early and then I just see Siakam matched up against Wallace for easy mid-range buckets.

Siakam should have a massive game no good match ups for him.
I do think the odds are wrong Pacers are legit super fun to watch too.
As a neutral watching fingers crossed its a competitive series.
Also my man love for Chet is unbound

OKC has the guys to stop Hali. Carlisle has to tweak his schemes to free up Hali.
Yeah should be interesting to see how they adjust.
So far I'm not seeing anything from Carlisle. I think he's content letting Hali be the distributor and other guys carry the scoring load.

Cat is in biting mode at the moment. Petting is dangerous
