    Thibs got straight worked, Knicks were so chaotic tonight.

    Have always disliked the Pacers since growing up in the Chicago area and hating Reggie Miller but gotta hand it to them.

    I think OKC will win but -750 feels disrespectful for a team that just rolled through competition.

    took finals going 6 games +300. Pacers stealing 2.

    Siakam the x-factor here IMO. Curious to see how they guard him.

    Exactly how I feel.

    Considering betting Pacers for this series. Though maybe moneylines on select individual games might be better value.

    Thibs obviously has his well known faults/tendencies as a coach, but i dont think anyone else could do better with that roster.

    You can easily win a title with their 3-4-5 guys, but I think conference finals is peak Brunson-Towns as the 1-2

    Yeah, I mean the funny part is it’s logical to fire Thibs at any point just because he runs guys into the ground and is a known quantity, but funny he got fired after beating Boston when that might be his most impressive accomplishment in years.

    The Pacers, despite 20 turnovers and taking 18 less shots in the first half, somehow got it to a 6 point game. They probably aren't going to win this game, but they are absolutely capable of winning the series.

    Side note: commentary isn't a big deal unless it's noticeably bad. This is awful.

    4 point game rofl.

    Obviously for young teams like these the moment can be too big. That situation obviously favors the home team, especially one with arguably the loudest fans in the NBA. If not for the incredibly rough start controlling the ball, this would be an easy Pacers win.

    Unbelievable. The Thunder at -700 was a joke. I bet they will still be a big favorite now even after losing home court advantage. Feels more like a coin flip, maybe the Thunder still as a slight favorite, from this point given what was just seen though.

    They lead for a grand total of .3 seconds in the game.

    I'm geared up to bet OKC rest of the way. Perfect game 1 if you like OKC, I would think.

    "In NBA Finals history, the team that wins Game 1 goes on to win the series about 70.7% of the time. This means that while it's not guaranteed, there's a strong statistical advantage for teams that start the Finals strong. Historically, 54 out of 77 NBA Finals series have seen the Game 1 winner ultimately claim the championship."

    I forgot to bet this series, too.

    I really screwed the pooch on this one. I knew the Pacers looked like a special team when I saw the Bucks series. Plus the others all looked very vulnerable.
