18 turnovers. They average 12.2 per game
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

OKC is still so shaky on offence but it really might not matter if Indy is gonna turn it over every other possession.

Pacers lucky this isn’t a blowout right now. And this is how it’s been all postseason for them.

Bad sign for OKC that they aren't up more. Indiana isn't gonna continue giving the ball away.

Really cool that we get to listen to Stephen A and Perk shout over each other.

Indy struggling to the find that balance of wanting to play fast but not reckless.

Can barely even understand them. This is championship level halftime entertainment? We’ve had it so good for a long time.

I look at Turner and always wonder why he’s not significantly better and more consistent. Turnover machine himself. What if disease.
Go Bucks!

If Indy can be within single digits going into the last 5, they’ll be a big chance of nabbing this one.

Still think this series is Pacers in 6 comfortably. OKC has an absolute dogcrap offense. If they don't turn you over nonstop they cannot score at all. And even tonight, Indiana has handed them the ball nonstop and OKC still can't score at all.

Pacers just seem so passive. No one wants to step up.

It's already been said.

But I would be a bit concerned if I was OKC. They should be up 25. They're currently up by only 6.

They need to adjust to OKC's hack tactics. OKC is literally nonstop hacking again, you can see Carlisle working the refs NONSTOP because of what they are allowing the perimeter guys to do with their hands. Hell, OKC literally just challenged a blatant foul call and their players legit do not think it was a foul lol. Blatant smack of the arm clear as day.

That’s a big shot from Shai. Indy is coming.

Win or lose Indiana have to be feeling pretty ok. This game should've been much worse for them and they've got a chance to steal it.

That Shai three was huge.

NBA has to start calling the moving screens that bigs are doing where they roll into the paint and then blatantly displace the defender to shield them from contesting the drive. That's an instant whistle at every level of play for multiple fouls occurring simultaneously. It's legit not basketball anywhere and can't allow that crap.
