Finals tiebreaker: Can Pacers not favored be slapped in the world again?
9:21am, 27 June 2025Basketball
0.3 seconds! The moment the basketball left his fingertips, the breathing of the entire stadium stopped. This magical kill made the Thunder silent at home, and also dragged the NBA Finals into a tiebreak final that had not been staged for nine years! When the basketball spins and falls into the net, the gears of fate begin to rotate wildly. At this moment, the "Thunder Sweep" predicted by all experts has become the ironic background board before the game.
Half a month ago, the self-media was covered with the titles "Thunder 4-0 crush" and "The Pacers have no chance of winning", as if the championship trophy is already Oklahoma's possession. Who would have thought that Indiana's "grassroots" had withstood the storm and used an ultimate team basketball feast to force the series into a desperate situation. That night, the Pacers were all soldiers, and the violent firepower of six scored in double digits to pieces to pieces. How could this be the "difference between the masses" mentioned by the media? It was clearly an epic collision like Mars hitting the earth!
The thunder's two stars shine like two invincible sharp blades. Alexander scored 30+ nuclear explosion performance in four games, and Jaylen averaged 24 points of heavy artillery fire per game. This pair of "King Blast" could tear open the Pacers' defensive iron curtain with almost his own strength. However, behind the bright starlight is the intermittent and intermittent role players as if they were powered off. Super Rising Star Chett was suppressed by Turner in the penalty area, from 4 of G5's 15 to 2 of G6's 9, the basket seemed to have been covered to him. Caruso? This "fourth giant" who was once praised as the third candidate for FMVP can not only save the master alone, but also deliver a dazzling zero-egg answer in the battle of life and death. Dort, Wiggins, Wallace? They are like meteors in the night sky, and their splendor returns to dimness in an instant. How much can they expect in the purgatory of the tiebreak?
In contrast, the Pacers played team basketball like a precision-operating machine. McConnell's miracle of G5 scoring 13 points in a row has not faded yet, and G6 contributes a comprehensive data of 12+9+6; the flattening range is from 17 points to 12 points and then to 20 points, which is as stable as a Dinghai Sword. The most terrifying thing is that eight Pacers on the finals stage scored in double digits per game! This incredible data made fans joke: "The FMVP trophy must be cut into eight parts to make it enough!" Netizen @Blue Linked Hero said bluntly: "Watching the Pacers playing basketball is like enjoying symphony, and everyone is an indispensable note." And @Thunder Faith said anxiously: "If there is a 'McConnell' on our bench, the championship will be long ago!"
When the end bell of the tiebreak is about to ring, the cold probability model pours cold water on the Pacers again, and the 19% chance of winning is like a bone-bending ice water. But Indiana people have long been accustomed to this kind of contempt. Throughout the playoffs, they have been "professional slaprs in the face", crushing each "impossible" one by one with tireless running and selfless transmission. Although Thunder has two stars like a god descending to earth, basketball is ultimately a war between five people. When Halliburton's iconic smile bloomed in the player channel, it was clearly the challenger's fearless light. He said lightly: "The finals tiebreak? This is simply a script I dreamt of waiting for!"
The God of Basketball seems to love the script of the tiebreak. On one side are the twin stars shining in the sky, on the other side are the stars with bright stars, on the other side are the soldiers of the whole nation; on the other side are the expectation of talent crushing, and on the other side are the grassroots counterattack that never bows its head. This has long gone beyond the category of victory or defeat and has become the soul collision of two basketball philosophy. As legendary coach Phil Jackson said: "In the championship puzzle, talent determines height, while the resilience of the character player determines the final belonging." The smoke of the tiebreak battle is about to fill the stadium. When Alexander's frozen face meets Halliburton's fiery smile, and when the torrent of the thunder's talent hit the Pacers' steel torrent, the final answer to the championship will eventually be written by sweat and will on the court. And perhaps the most fascinating truth in the basketball world is that the spotlight favors superstars, but history always remembers those challengers who burn their team beliefs to the extreme. No matter who will be reveling when the final whistle in the seventh game is blew, this series has proved that when beliefs are hot enough, a 19% chance can burn through the sky! The basketball world will always retain the throne for the subversive.
