You say that now but when he starts game 7 and has 35/10/18 and responsible for like 78 points on score/assists you will sing a different song!

Last decent game 7 of the finals was probably 1994 tbh

2016 and 2010 too.
2013

2005 came down to the wire. Like literally every game 7 has been great for 30 years.

They're playing like this because they're facing elimination at home. They have great fans. OKC will have the same advantage.

No chance

I'm not very interested in this free throw battle to end the game. Hurry it up.

I don't see OKC defense coming out this flat in game 7. Teams generally come out firing after getting their *** kicked.

I gotta admit thought OKC are bizarre on offense, so far they've looked better at home and so do the roleplayers but who tf knows what happens in game 7. But I'd say the most consistent thing between the two sides has been the Pacers offense and it has every chance to do go 120

I like it though. Turner has been in a shooting slump. If he can get some shots up in these garbage time minutes, perhaps it would help him for Game 7.

Nembhard and his clamp down defence has been remarkable and deserves a mention too.

I think the majority consensus is Pascal has been the Pacers MVP

But overall The Pacers have played much more like a coherent Team in these play-offs than OKC and hope they bring home the bacon in game 7

I hope so because I have no stakes in this and I just want to see an amazing Game 7.

Per AI:
The oldest NBA head coach to coach in the NBA Finals is Larry Brown, who was 63 years old when he coached the Detroit Pistons to victory in the 2004 NBA Finals. He is also the only coach to win both an NCAA and NBA title.
