I figured OKC would win by 10+ tonight.
I was asking for Wiggins last year but I don’t think he’s any better than what the Spurs already have

OKC is a better team, but this is far from over, Pacers keep playing and don't break down completely.
Late 1st and early 2nd quarter cold stretch cost them tonight.
Pacers pulled their starters

Idk, Okc soundly beat them in both games and pacers just managed to steal the first one. Still looked overmatched in both. This game turns on the third game. If Okc wins it’s a wrap. No way pacers winning three of the last four from this 70 win team.
In 2007, Phoenix outscored us by over 20 points in the 6 game series. We won 4-2, and that’s all that matters. They had a couple of blowouts, and we won four tight games.
Also thinking back to Detroit in 2005 when the first four games were all blowouts for the home team, followed by three straight compe ive games. That series obviously hinged on Game 5 (thanks Big Shot Bob), but every series is different. That was also back during the 2-3-2 format.
I agree that the Thunder have looked like the better team for like...7/8 quarters played so far, but Indy has been sneaking their way into wins all playoffs. If they can keep this series 2-2 going back to OKC, anything is possible.
Sure but that’s not the way this one will go down. Were the spurs a 50 win team and the Suns a 70 win team? Okc is one of the greatest teams of all time by record. That means something.
Like I think four teams in nba history had a better record lol.
It means the series is 1-1. That’s literally all that matters. Congratulations on completely missing that point.
OKC also didn’t win 70 games.
lol I rounded up! Still four nba teams in history had a better record… Indy is just on a tier way below Okc. The only way they probably win one is if they either play perfectly or steal one.
I’ll start by saying OKC should win this thing. But the Thunder tend to sleepwalk thru parts of games. I’m starting to think that when Shea goes on his scoring sprees the rest of the team becomes unattached offensively. Don’t forget that they took 7 to close out the Nuggets, and the Nugs barely had a bench. Starting with Westbrook says it all. I think the Pacers bench is equal to the Thunders’ bench, with Toppin and Mathurin the 2 bench players in the series. IMHO

They’ve already done that.
Yep they are lucky they may not get another like the wolves. Honestly I was surprised the wolves even managed one. Like I said all the 50ish win teams are basically on a material plane much lower than the Demi-gods of Thunder.

Genuinely disgusted at how lazy the league and its broadcast partners have gotten with regard to the Finals presentation and tv production. Some random dude on X managed to edit an infinitely superior scoreboard and and much finer trophy logo on court than a multi-billion media company could do. Adam Silver is so weird for putting so much effort into the useless NBA Cup tourney while neglecting his own Superbowl.

At least they brought back finals stickers for G3.
No points for SGA and Haliburton in the first 6 minutes, but Chet has finally showed up.
Thunderrefs in effect tbh.
TJ "Alex Caruso" McConnell dominating
Williams just isn't good enough and if OKC loses the finals it will be on him.
Both Indiana and OK City have players who are fast and can attack the rim. Spurs now have the backcourt that can attack the rim.
Two years ago the Spurs had nothing in the backcourt that could take it strong to the basket consistently.
