[QUOTE=tpols;15016098]The Pacers have basically gotten blown out every time they step on OKC home court. They have almost no chance in this Game 7. They'd have to shoot 60+% from 3 to offset the ref disadvantage alone.[/QUOTE]

Being in the lead most of the time doesnt mean blowout.

Idk how to read this Game 7, I felt like the last few Finals Game 7's were all basically tossups heading into it. I definitely am not going to say they have "almost no chance", this Indy team has proven to be too gritty and resilient for that; but I am in agreement I could see OKC throw the hammer down like they did to Denver in their Game 7.

This almost never happens in a Finals Game 7

[QUOTE=Mask the Embiid;15015798]Im betting on the pacers game 7. They got it. They are the better team. You win Indiana. You broke me



Better coach
Better bench
5 people who can actually dribble on the court instead of just 2.
Siakam the best player on the court
TJ the best player off the bench
Turner> Chet
Toppin > Chet

I like my chances. Game 7. Go pacers


The only thing im worried about is haliburton pulling a houdini game 7[/QUOTE]

Damn, and I used to think the Pacers had a chance. But seeing as how you are so consistently wrong….

[QUOTE=Full Court;15015755]Imagine the bitch fit Axe is going to be throwing tonight if OKC wins and SGA takes FMVP.

:roll:

He might set a record for stink.

:lebronamazed:[/QUOTE]

I sure called this wrong. OKC lost and Axey-poo STILL was throwing bitch fits.











And setting stink records. :lol

I said Pacers in 7 but looks like Scott Foster is back for game 7.

Okc win by 20.

If Tyrese scores a game winner, does he get the fmvp? Or does it still depend on stats?

I don't know....tough call. That would mean he's responsible for two of the four wins, but he's had two came where he played completely stinky.

Stinky like Axe. :lol

If things stay as stand, who would you take for FMVP in the case of an Indy win?

Siakam: 20/8/4 on 46.4%
Hali: 15/5/7 on 44.7%

Hali is the QB and hit the Game 1 Winner.

No real difference in 3s or FTs. Siakam has a bit better 3P rate but hit way less, Hali has a bit better FT rate but hit way less.

Just never forget that

:lol

Assuming Indy wins and no amazing performances in Game 7, Siakam should be Finals MVP. He played terrific defense in the series as well almost like 2008 Garnett-lite. If OKC wins assuming JDub doesn't put up another 40-piece or something, it's pretty handily SGA.

Mega all time choke if Okc lose this.. then again this finals will probably be forgotten about in a weeks time, just like the last few..
League needs a new dynasty or something
