It's a 48 minute game but to never lead until they have played 47.7 minutes to take their first lead and to win the game is amazing

Just popping in, in shock yet again, the team of destiny perhaps? Unbelievable! Pacers down 99.9895833333% of the game. Haliburton’s game winner in every series trends yet again. A home game 6 win would be on my birthday, so that’s my prayer/prediction. OKC defense is no joke, that was a tough 99.9895833333% of a game to watch. We’ve got a lot of work to do, this is going to be tough. In shock, but also not shocked at this point. That bolt of lightning shot of a shock silenced the crowd. A bolt of lightning with no THUNDER tonight!

The Pacers scored 45 points in the last 13-1/2 minutes. That’s a 160-point game pace against the best team in basketball.
That's only possible when the opponent has to guard an entire team, not just a couple of superstars. The five starters had 19, 15, 14, 14, and 10 points total…for the full game!
(Thank goodness the 3-point shot came through for them).

It's terrific to watch these two young teams play. SGA carried the Thunder most of the game but the Pacers know the game is 48 minutes and it's only over when the fat lady sings

 

[Steve williams]

a different game 2 as the Thunder come out with pedal to the metal as they open a 23 point lead early in the second period, but as the story of the tortoise and the hair in blink of the eye, the Pacers suddenly close to within 13

SGA is such a smooth and skilled player

52-39 OKC

 

[Steve williams]

OKC bounces back and finishes the half strong and extend their lead at the half

OKC 59-41

 

[Zuman]

Pacers' shooting is ice-cold today, and the tables have turned with OKC hitting 53.6% FGs and 41.7% on 3s near the end of Q3, with the Pacers only making 38.6% and 34.5%. Haliburton has pulled a disappearing act. Pacers can't win like this.

 

[Steve williams]

When OKC is clicking there isnt a team in the league that can beat them. They are totally destroying the Pacers as they have completely shut down Haliburton

Endof 3rd OKC leads 93-74

 

[Steve williams]

SGA with 27 after 3rd but Haliburton shut down with only 5 points

Will they rally again?

I dont see it happening tonight

 

[Steve williams]

No rally tonight as the Pacers get a real spanking

Series heads back to Indiana tied 1-1

Caruso was spectacular tonight both in scoring and shutting down Haliburton

Final OKC 123-107

 

[Steve williams]

This is probably one of the best and most exciting series I have seen in many a year. The Thunder are so good and so deep that you just expect them to win the game. Thunder finis=hes the 1st period with a lead and Pacers not getting Haliburton involved. The second period was a different game and the speed is lightening quick at both ends of the court. Haliburton finally comes alive as the Pacers tie them at 36-36 and then take their first lead. Both teams ar playing superb defense but the speed of the game is truly remarkable as The Thunder gets active and ties the Pacers at 51-51. Haliburton again puts Pacers ahead 58-56 on one of his patented lob 3 point shots. TJ McConnell has energized his team as he is like the road runner with his speed

This game at the half is just to close as tet=y are playing at full throttle

at the half Pacers lead 64-60

a very exciting first half

 

[JackD201]

TJ is Rick's 2025 JJ.

 

[Steve williams]

The third period was more of the same as the pace of the game is blistering. Only youth and skill IMO can maintain the speed of this game. Both teams are so evenly matched that at the end of the 3rd this game is still up for grabs

Jalen Williams hits a 3 to end the third OKC 89-84

McConnell for the Pacers and Caruso for the Thunder are the spark plugs of this game

such a case game as neither is giving anything away

 

[Steve williams]

Ogff the benchMathurin is all confidence as awe has 25 points and is making everything

OKC with 17 turnovers so far in the game haas been a big factor in keeping the Pacers in this game
