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

[Jeremy Lin 7]

Alright I'm done trolling I'll take this finals seriously now

[Coach Carter]

Pacers are basically the killer at the end of a scary movie

[DCasey91]

Pacers might be a team of destiny.


Not sure why the Thunder benched their Bigs in the 4th quarter. I think that cost them the game.

One is genius level on offence

The other has the talent

Remember Rick had Jameer Nelson led teams as GOAT offence

For some reason this coach is heavily slept on to me he makes Antonis system arse tier

[Chuck Everett]

Why did OKC go small for the last 3 minutes?

Daigs vs. Carlisle. Hmm... Carlisle went with Turner and Toppin over Siakam for a bunch of those late minutes too.

[Doranku]

Haliburton leading the Pacers to one of the most improbable rings of all-time after being voted the most overrated player by his peers would be the stuff of legends ngl

[f4p]

Haliburton has played like 5 playoff games and the only person with more playoff game winners in the last 28 years is friggin LeBron?

[AFM]

Acted a little goofy and went Pacers in 7. Fk it.

[ibraheim718]

Carlisle is the best coach in the league and has been for a long time. He was the reason why the Pacers went to the Finals in 2000. And he was a huge reason for Dallas turning the corner 10 years later. And now he has the Pacers believing.

The man is great.

To be fair it was Boucek doing most of the coaching at the end Carlisle was just listening and watching her

[Diop]

This is where experience can take you further than overall team talent.

What experience?

they've been doing this all playoffs, almost every series. that experience

[Roger Federer]

I knew it !!!!!!
I knew it!!!!!!

As improbable as it seems i knew watching this gamr IND will win (lol jk)

My wife kept asking me why we were watching a such an obviously one-sided series and I kept telling her is to just keep watching as all these Pacers do is find ways to get games to come down to the final buzzer…

[Zeno]

I called the douchebag sweep so right on target. Actually think if they give Pascal free throws on that play, Indy loses.

[Wallace_Wallace]

The coaching matters a lot more than we realized. Carlisle might just win as the underdog again with a team that also A TEAM

[holdenwait]

That was the AI game 1 against Lakers win type of shi for this generation lol

[tmorgan]

Oooooo….we have a spicy finals!

Doesn’t matter how good your defense is at forcing turnovers, you still gotta be at least sort of efficient offensively.

[DaGawd]

pacers in 7 smh

[NiceLikeChrist]

I really hope people stop tying to compare Chet to Wemby...

They don’t run anything for Chet. They barely have an offense. It’s just entirely reliant on SGA iso and hacking guys into turnovers and scoring off it

Chet is just running, setting screens, and defending. They run more through iHart than they do Chet.

[Indomitable]

This is where experience can take you further than overall team talent.

What experience?

Playoffs didn’t start today fyi

I am aware. I am asking you to explain your statement. Both teams had to win big games and there is no advantage in championship experience

[Rainwater]

Don’t understand how the pacers keep winning. I just don’t understand.

[ANTETOKOUNBROS]

Maybe Carlisle was the key to the magic Dirk finals run after all?!

[zimpy27]

This is where experience can take you further than overall team talent.

What experience?

Siakam and Carlisle have both been to the top of the mountain.
