Game 7s are the moments where legends are made.
These are the games -- with little margin for error and everything on the line -- that go down in the annals of history, particularly at this stage of the playoffs when they are rare. Since the NBA-ABA merger at the start of the 1976-77 season, there have been only eight winner-take-all games to decide the NBA title.
Sunday night will see that number grow to nine, when the host Oklahoma City Thunder and Indiana Pacers square off in Game 7 of the NBA Finals -- the first time that the league's championship round has gone the distance since 2016.
