    If I could pick any player in the league to put on this team it'd be Haliburton tbh. Imagine if he was our PG and a 3 and D 2 guard with Amen at the 3? Incredible.

    Hilarious that all of the pundits talking about "it's a small market so the finals isn't good." This is the best finals in YEARS and it's one game in.

    That ruled. Haliburton was clutch. Shai wasn’t.

    Haliburton has the clutch gene.

    After this game it's safe to say he the only the 2nd most overrated player in the nba now.

    OKC blew the game in the 1st half when they didn't finish with a much bigger lead.

    The Pacers are very sticky and give themselves a chance to win games most teams would not.

    Just wow!!!

    Keep in mind the difference in both the Cavs and Knicks series was they both blew late leads in game 1. We'll see if the Pacers can continue the same recipe and snag game 2. Can they really do this???!!!

    Thunder forced 24 turnovers and lost

    OKC shot 40% from the field and J-Dub and Chet with another disappearing act

    J-Dub 6-19 and Chet 2-9

    it’s the Shai and friends show on offense

    OKC has to be shook. Does Mark D. get fired if they loose this series? Asking for a friend from New York.

    Wow.

    Absolutely insane from the Pacers.

    Thunder will no doubt be ruing not being up 20-30 at the end of the first half with the 21 or so extra possessions and Pacers not connecting from downtown.
