Who do you think wins the Finals now (after Game 1)?

[JujitsuFlip]

The Pacers won’t turn it over quite so much, but they also won’t hit 18 of 39 threes all the time either.

Still expect OKC to win this, but it’s going to be more competitive than I would’ve guessed.

1. 13 of 34 - W
2. 16 of 36 - W
3. 13 of 41 - L
4. 18 of 39 - W
5. 12 of 33 - W
6. 19 of 36 - W
7. 11 of 28 - W
8. 9 of 30 - L
9. 15 of 35 - W
10. 15 of 35 - W
11. 15 of 37 - W
12. 13 of 30 - W
13. 5 of 25 - L
14. 13 of 32 - W
15. 10 of 30 - L
16. 17 of 33 - W
17. 18 of 39 - W

I'd say it is very likely they continue to hit at that percentage, since it has been a huge factor to their successful playoff run thus far.

Daigs has done enough stupid stuff in these playoffs that he can't be trusted not to panic/overreact in a big spot. Might be some growing pains for him as well. Why did he change his starting lineup that got him to the Finals?

Yes, but he has tons of room for error with his roster. I still expect Thunder in six.

They’re not playing the aged out, depleted Bucks, and your injured team anymore though.

They did it to the Knicks too though and the Thunder last night. I don't think they will all of sudden forget how to shoot the rest of the series.

Their injury luck and shooting luck has been insane on this run.

indy in 4

[Lalouie]

still favor the Thunder.....but Pacers just need some hot shooting in game 2 and things could get really interesting.

normally there's a letup but i think indy will always be fighting for validation so they won't stop playing hard even if they're 3-0

i say indy wins game 2
then okc wins game 3 because their back'll be against the wall
then indy because g4 is at home
then okc wins g5 @home
that's all my crystal ball reveals to me.

3-2 indy going into game 6

[boomershadow]

Indiana just seems to defy expectations at every turn. I don't see why it should end now.
