It’s either going to be a neck to neck game or a OKC blowout, nothing in between.

Extremely ugly game until one of the OKC role players breaks the game open in the middle of the third, then they hold that to a 10 pt win

Personally I don't know who on OKC is going to show up game to game aside from Shai and Jalen Williams on offense. The only saving grace is that the game is at home. Pacers are going to have 6 guys who are at least going to try to impact the game on offense.

Thunder better be playing with the lead by halftime in this game otherwise, I think they will fold and Indiana wins the series.

That would be a story tale ending. We all win in that case.

One reason I like the Pacers is psychologically they just seem the tougher team under pressure. I'm talking shooting wise primarily - They just play so loose, whether it's Toppin, McConnell, Siakam, Nembard etc. I trust their shooting more in a Game 7 than OKC's role guys.

Refs are gonna dictate a lot though. Pacers were extremely physical tonight on their doubles/traps and it helped them refs let them play a lot. If it's a ticky-tak game with a lot of stoppages in Game 7, that favors OKC greatly.

That would be a well written way to get viewership up thats forsure, NBA viewership down? No problem, screw the "big names", lets put the NBA Finals with 2 "underdog - small market teams" end up in a seven game series that goes OT in the last game....Soap Operas have better and less predictable writing then that lol

OKC gets favoritism on their home floor and win by 20+.

Whoever scores the most points will win game 7, and thus the championship.

Sometimes when you win, you really lose, and sometimes when you lose, you really win, and sometimes when you win or lose, you actually tie, and sometimes when you tie, you actually win or lose. Winning or losing is all one organic mechanism, from which one extracts what one needs.
