Oof. That one hurt.
The Thunder led Game 1 of the NBA Finals for 47 minutes, 59 seconds and 7 deciseconds. Seemingly up between 9-12 points the whole time. But those final .3 seconds gave Indiana a 1-0 lead over OKC in the NBA Finals.
But this is what the Pacers do. Ask the Knicks. Or the Cavs. Or the Bucks. Or SGA: “It is a 48-minute game. [The Pacers] teach you that lesson more than anyone else in the league the hard way.”
I still believe OKC is the better team. 68 wins is not a fluke.
