Lol exciting possession. But not very basketball-like.

They're shooting like 38% from the field. Not gonna win with that level of offense.

Man, I'm so glad to see this run. We really, really needed that.

He has tried it in this game but it was only in limited minutes.

I question whether OKC has shot their salvo too soon. Their 20-plus point lead has quickly shrunk to 13.

Indiana finishes strong.

Props to the Pacers. They can be down 50, and will still play hard.
