For some strange reason, I like the Pacers tonight… just a gut feeling.

All depends on how the refs call the game

If fair, Pacers

If not, OKC

So the best team this year can only win at home if the refs help them.

Based on the last 4 games, it seems obvious the Pacers win this series if it was called consistently.

it is mind blowing to me that they didn't have a game last night. All day i thought there was one.

With off-season transactions already going it seems like the NBA forget the finals are still going

Yea this new bonus day off is the drawback of the 2-2-1-1-1 format. And of course the traditional first 2 games being on thurs-sun. They should be able to adjust the schedule a little if there isn’t cross country travel involved.

As for the game i think both teams are looking for a complete game. So far only okc in game 2 has really done it.

Average margin of victory for OKC at home this playoffs is about 27 points.

That’s a lot of help from the refs!

OKC better have this one lol. Pressure is on the Thunder here IMO. You can’t win the series tonight but you could damn sure all but lose it…

That said I still think the Thunder get it tonight. Feel like this series is for sure going 7 though.

Either of these would be glorious and not the digitally placed crap.
