Game 1 prob Philly 2001esque, this series may get really ugly
Same thing I'm thinking. OKC is better at every facet than Indiana. 99% of this series so far, Indiana has looked overmatched.
Thunder were up 12 at half last game. 
That tells me OKC is the much better team aside from the end of game 1. But Indiana will come back home tied at 1 no matter what happens tonight.

OKC against Miami in 2012 as well.

I was at Game 2 and it basically a repeat of Game 1 except OKC shot better.  The OKC defense is really all over them.  OKC hasn't played well in the playoff in Game 1's coming off rest so maybe that was it.  Halliburton and Pascal are nice players but OKC's "other guys" are much better.  Caruso and Wiggins has really good shooting games and Chet was more aggressive early on.  

Game 3 will be telling.  If OKC wins that, it puts a ton of pressure on Indy in Game 4.  If they go back to OKC down 3-1, it's over in Game 5.

I assume barring major injuries, Indiana won't be favored for one single game this series?

No way.  Nuggets were underdogs all 7 games.

Watching the NCAA outdoor track championships, totally forgot about the Finals. Go Pacers!

Think Indy would finish in that 6-9 range if they played in the west

What a limp dick start

classic surly hot take

Lol get back on D Chet you fucking dweeb. 

OKC Defense- foul every play and cry about it when it’s called

OKC Offense - flop every play and cry about it

40 in the second Q wasn’t bad

Meh. The Kings would be up 15 on OKC right now. 

Every time the refs don’t call one of SGA’s foul moves, Adam Silver spares a victim from becoming a vampire.

Turrible timing, about to take off from MIA. No onboard video of course. At least I'm not watching it at 430 am.

Refs have been okay but I'm surprised Indy isn't getting a better whistle on some of these. 

For the first time ever, I’m watching an NBA game with no sound after a comment Klosterman made. Not only am I enjoying immensely, gone is the rage I usually feel at the commentary. Thanks Chuck!

Weird take for a team with clearly less obvious, glaring flaws than any team in the West that's not OKC. 

They were 21-10 against the West this year, for what it's worth. About a 56 win pace.

Also, every non-OKC team in the West was in the 2-8 range all season.

Really bad turnover there. Hope it doesn't cost them. 

And they're lucky that wasn't a flagrant.

At WORST, Indiana is going to have a home game to try to force a Game 7. Would have gladly signed up for that a week ago.

The coaching advantage this series is pretty blatant after 3 games. Fantastic to see Rick starting to get the respect he deserves.

Here's the thing...

I bought 5000 units at $.16 that Indiana would win the championship game ($800). After game 1 those 5000 units are at $.27 (+$550). Do I take the money and run?

If IND can somehow go up 2-0 I should be at $.60 (+$2200) you would think but if OKC wins it's probably back down to .18/.19 range.

Or just ride it out and pocket $5k if Indiana can win the series.

What would yall do?

$.36 (+$1000) let's go IND!

Though I can't say I feel good about Indiana winning this series. This game felt like fools gold in that if OKC even plays 10% better and make some FT's they would have won easily. Just my opinion from what I saw.

Plus knowing that the Nuggets had OKC down 1-2 and OKC still pulled it out isn't comforting.

OKC shot better from 3 and only had 4 more turnovers. A lot of the FTs were late and somewhat inconsequential. 

Indy was the better team tonight and they can do it two more times. Think they may need to win G4, though.

From your mouth to God's ears because I could use the five large (and it would be funny as an anti-OKC fan).

I have not watched any of the series as I am on vacation but, have the announcers talked about a record for 4th quarter comeback victories in a playoffs?

Watched him play in high school. Friendly with his family. His success surprises me not one bit. The kid has been a basketball junkie his entire life. &nbsp
 

We raised a glass, prior to one of our Pitt football games last season, to his new contract.

my mentor coached him in philly and is close with him. i’ve been a big fan for a long time. i’ve been saying he’s the most underrated player in the league for years, but people are starting to catch on to the fact that he’s awesome, even if he’s a career backup. from what i hear he’s great people as well. what a performance tonight. so easy to root for. hope he wins a ring this year.

weird after the fact take. I posted this with like 6:55 left in the first in a playoff thread that hasnt seen a post in 2.5 days and Indy was down 9. coming off a game 2 where they lost by 16 and rare come back win down 9 with under 3 min left in game 1. 

 

apologies.
