NBA Finals G3, the Pacers defeated the Thunder 116-107 at home, leading 2-1 in the total score. In the last 17.4 seconds of the game, Wallace walked to the free throw line and made 1 of two free throws. The free throw hit rate was very low. In fact, this is a microcosm of the low free throw hit rate of the Thunder in the entire game, and a microcosm of the Thunder's failure to score at a critical moment. Wallace's final score did not save the Thunder's failure. In the end, the Thunder lost to the Pacers 107-146.
The Thunder did play better in the first quarter, and was in full force. He had a bite of force. With Chet's hook shot, the Thunder fired the first shot. After that, the Thunder broke through again and made a mid-range shot, tearing open the defense line one after another, gaining an advantage in offense. When Chett was overturned by the basket, Dort hit another three-pointer. Chett became more and more brave in the first quarter, killing all sides. Chett scored 13 points in a single quarter, and Dort in the first quarter hit 3 three-pointers. At the end of the first quarter, the Thunder led one by 32-24.
Chett was still the first start of the second quarter, and Wallace followed closely. The Thunder played again at the beginning, combining inside and outside, blooming more points, and the situation of not scoring in the bench in the first quarter improved, but the attack in the second half was a bit bumpy, with only Jiewei fighting in and out. The Thunder's offense was not as smooth as the first quarter. At the end of the half, the Thunder fell behind 60-64.
Back from the locker room, Jewe suddenly broke out and made a layup, and another mid-range shot was made. As Alexander's mid-pointer took a 6-0 attack wave at the beginning of the second half, Jewe continued to break through, while Alexander moved to the three-point line to attack, Dort continued to shell, and Caruso also hit a three-pointer. The Thunder's offense was one wave after another, one wave higher than the other. With a three-pointer in the last 0.8 seconds, Jewe's three-pointer 100-step penetration, the Thunder overtook 89-84 after the three quarters.
However, the good times did not last long. In the fourth quarter, the Thunder's physical strength dropped, and the offense at the three-point line almost stopped. The offense relied entirely on the breakthrough of Chet and Jewe, as well as Alexander's singles, and did not play a combination of inside and outside, nor did it provide a fire support. In the end, the Thunder lost to the Pacers 107-116 and lost the third game.
After the game, basketball commentator Su Qun updated the social media and said: Thunder bench player Thunder only had 18 points, especially point guard McConnell, core attacker Matherine on the bench and substitute center Toddler performed particularly well, while Wiggins, who made contributions in the last game, handed in the blanks; the Thunder lost 21 points in 19 mistakes.
Su Qun's comments believe that the Thunder's loss was because the Thunder's substitute was not good, while the Pacers' substitute broke out, followed by Wiggins, who made contributions in the last game, and he failed to score 1 point. In addition, the Thunder made 19 mistakes, which are the main reasons for the Thunder's loss. Su Qun's comments were very well-established, which can be said to be a sharp hit.
