Bodes well for the Pacers even if they didn't snatch the win, having 4 million turnovers and still being in the game let alone winning it is something.

Sidebar....JDub should not be the 2nd option moving forward for the Thunder.
OKC absolutely MUST start building up Chet asap.

I want them to do another overrated poll of the same players after the playoffs are over.
Unbelievable.

Re: 2025 NBA FINALS: #1 Oklahoma City Thunder vs #4 Indiana Pacers
More embarrassing than Knicks game 1 IMO. “Historically great” team. “Best defense of all time”. “Most lopsided finals ever”. Force 20 turnovers in one half. Up 15 in the fourth. MVP on your team, 2 all defense on your team. Choke at home.
Very embarrassing

Halliburton won a close game they shouldn’t have. SGA bricking just extended the series to at least 6. This Pacer team has “it”

Had a feeling this series goes maybe 6. And possibly steal Game 1. Pacers are no pushovers. They are gritty, well coached, playoff experienced. They have the coaching advantage, too.
OKC probably a lil rusty too from long layoff.
They might split at Indiana, too. Still think OKC wins in it all in 6. Too talented.
This is gonna be a good series.

Crazy finish. Hali is having a clutch season for the ages.
Not sure how I feel about this SGA performance, he was good, but it felt like he never really had control of the game, and he wasn't creating like he normally does (only 3 assists).

They come out in game 2 and cut those down to half they have a real good shot to take another one on the road!
19 IND turnovers in the first half.

Pacers are making believers outta me. I got kids on both sides. This is kinda difficult.
