5:26am, 7 June 2025Basketball

The first game of the finals started, and the pre-match prediction was one-sided that the Thunder would beat the Pacers in five or six games to win the championship, but almost no one predicted a 4-0 score. After the start of the

, it was a little different from what everyone expected. The Thunder had almost no experience in the finals. Only Caruso had played in the finals and won the championship. This was shown on the court, and they were indeed a little nervous. However, the Thunder's defense is very strong, and they have forced the Pacers to make mistakes many times, which has always taken the initiative on the field.

However, the Pacers were simply the undead young strongman. They were behind 0-7 at the beginning. After tied in the quarter, they were widened by the Thunder. In the first quarter, the Thunder widened the gap to 10 points and stopped the Pacers. After that, the Pacers approached the score again and did not allow the Thunder to continue to expand their lead.

The second quarter is still repeating the plot of the first quarter. The Pacers worked hard to catch up with the points. The Thunder repeatedly widened the score difference to two digits, but they were still unable to get rid of the Pacers.

Alexander is still scoring strongly, but his efficiency is not as high as before facing the Western Conference team. His teammates Jaylenway and Chett did not play particularly well. Instead, Dort's three-pointer repeatedly hit a leading position for the Thunder. At the end of the half, the Thunder led by 12 points 57-45.

Although the Thunder has always maintained the lead, the Pacers give people the feeling that they are very tough and tenacious, and the Thunder can never get rid of them. Alexander's handling of the ball before the end of the half seemed a bit unreasonable. He launched an attack without enough time, and finally left the Pacers with more than ten seconds of offensive time.

The Pacers began to launch a counterattack in the third quarter, and many of their players could score. Dort on the Thunder continued his good touch on the outside, and more people scored on the Pacers. Topin, Mathering, Siakam and Halliburton all attacked the Thunder's defense line continuously. Before the end of the third quarter, Alexander scored 3 points, and the Thunder led by 9 points and entered the final quarter.

The Thunder started 4-0 in the final quarter, and the gap was widened again, but the Pacers still played steadily. After Toping and Turner made 3 points, they were only 8 points behind and stopped the Thunder. After the timeout, the Thunder stopped the bleeding, but Toping and Turner scored 3 points one after another, 94-98, and the Thunder only led by 4 points!

Entered the last 5 minutes of competition, Turner, Halliburton and Siakam continued to attack the Thunder defense line, and the Thunder was mainly supported by Alexander. Entering the last 3 minutes, Nesmith and Nembhard scored 3 points in succession, and the Pacers were only 3 points behind 105-108!

At the last critical moment, Alexander failed to attack, Nembhard missed 3 points, but in the last 48 seconds, Siakam grabbed the frontcourt rebound and made a layup with a backhand, 109-110, and the Pacers were only 1 point behind!

They never led the game, but they saw the dawn of a reversal at the last moment!

After that, Jaylenway and Alexander missed consecutively, and Halliburton scored two points and scored a goal!

There are 0.3 seconds left in the game. In such a short time, the Thunder was unable to make up the situation. They were 47 minutes ahead but were defeated by the Pacers. The Pacers, who were only 0.3 seconds ahead of the entire game, won a miracle. It can only be said that Halliburton does know magic.

This game reminds people of the Eastern Conference Finals against the Knicks. Halliburton scored a tie and two points in the last moment, ultimately helping the Pacers win overtime. Of course, it also reminds people of the series between the Thunder and the Nuggets. The Thunder gave up the fruits of victory in the first game at the last moment. Will the final result of the Pacers continue to replica the Knicks or the Thunder continue to replica the Nuggets? The second game will give the answer.

Pacers scored 6 points in double digits, and all the starters scored in double digits. The substitute scored 5 three-pointers and was the team's victory.

Alexander scored a high score of 38 points, but still couldn't win 3 of 6 three-pointers, but the second instructor Jaylenway scored 6 of 19 shots and scored 17 points, 4 rebounds and 6 assists, which can be said to be unqualified; Dort made 5 of 9 three-pointers and had 4 steals and 2 blocks, and performed beyond expectations. The remaining players only Caruso, who came on the bench, scored 11 points and scored in double digits. Thunder role players, including Chet, are obviously not enough. During the game, Chet had a very good opportunity to counterattack and layups. A player like him who is tall and long arms actually failed, so the physical confrontation still needs to be strengthened.

Judging from this game alone, the Pacers are tenacious, have many people playing, and each player has good attack power, which makes them laugh to the end.

Although the Thunder plays a lot, they lack experience in the finals. Except for Alexander and Dolter, others obviously did not perform well. At the last critical moment, Alexander was the only player who was trustworthy in the Thunder! Siakam and Halliburton are both big-hearted players, and others dare to fight. In the next game, the other players of the Thunder must get rid of their timidity and let go of their hands and feet to win.
