Thunder champion G4 reverses equalizer series, Alexander shows his MVP s true character in the final season

Pacers continued to usher in the championship game G4 at home with the advantage of 2 wins and 1 defeat, and led by 9 points in the first quarter. However, the Thunder quickly caught up, and the two sides formed a tug-of-war. Indiana relied on the No. 1 Haliburton to lead in a row to assist and layups at the end of the first half, and expanded the double-digit score difference in the third quarter, but spent all the lead in the final quarter. Oklahoma No. 1 SGA stepped forward to reverse the decline. The Thunder narrowly won 111-104 in the end, making the series 2-2.

The two teams hit the scores as high as 55% in the first quarter. The Pacers once opened the gap of 24-15 and 9 points, but the Thunder quickly responded with a 9-0 counterattack to equalize the score. Oklahoma relied on the second-in-command Javier to score a tip-in before the end of this quarter and chased the score to 34-35. This is the first time that Indiana has taken the lead in the first quarter. 9 of the Pacers' 11 goals came from assists, the team scored 4 three-pointers in a single quarter, the Eastern Conference Final MVP Siakam scored 10 points in a single quarter, the Thunder's second brother Williams scored 12 points, and Caruso also scored 7 points from the bench. During a defense, he slapped Haliburton, the No. 1 brother of Inn City, but escaped the foul and called the verdict, which triggered a huge boo.

The Thunder continued to challenge the basket in the second quarter and advanced to the score. With 5 minutes and 46 seconds left in the first half, Halliburton dropped the ball, Caruso intercepted and ran a fast break, but was knocked away by Totel, who could not keep up with the speed. The Thunder's tough guy Halterstein immediately jumped out to protect his teammates and clashed with Totel. The two pushed each other and the scene was once hot. After the referee played back the screen, he upgraded Toppin's foul to a level 1 malicious foul. He and Halterstein also received one technical foul each. The Pacers were hit a 7-0 offensive, falling behind 45-51 and 6 points. Halliburton, who made consecutive mistakes, then stabilized, assisting Nesmith and Siakam respectively. He also scored consecutive layups in the last 1 minute and 07 seconds of the first half, including a three-pointer. After 0 free throws in the first three games, G4 finally stood on the free throw line, and Indiana had to lead 60-57 and 3 points at the end of the first half.

The Thunder made 16 free throws in the first two quarters, but only made 1 goal with 10 three-pointers, while the Pacers made 7 of 18 shots, winning 18 points from the outside, becoming the biggest watershed in the first half. Entering the second half, Oklahoma still failed to recover the three-point shooting, while the Pacers had a lot of offensive ends. Siakam, Nembhard, who is responsible for strictly preventing SGA Kyrgyz-Alexander, and Toppin scored 4 three-pointers in a row, rewritten the score to 80-72.

Toping not only scored 2 outside points in a row, but also performed a dunk, and the Pacers widened the score difference to 86-76 and 10 points. Although the two Thunder scorers SGA and Jerwei scored through the 20 mark after scoring in the first three quarters, they still couldn't compete with the Pacers' team firepower and outside offensive, Indiana led the final quarter with 87-80 and 7 points.

Thunder with a huge crisis occurred. At the beginning of the last quarter, under the leadership of Caruso and Homgren, they played a 9-2 offensive to equalize the score. The battle situation was once again in a stalemate. The last 4 minutes and 38 seconds were still tied at 97. Then Halliburton and Nesmith stood on the free throw line one after another, and the Pacers took a 4-point lead. In the first 2 minutes and 58 seconds of the final game, SGA scored the third three-pointer in a single game, and then hit the middle distance, and the Thunder took the lead by 1 point.

In the last 44 seconds, SGA turned around and found the angle of the hand, causing the Pacers to foul, and scored two goals steadily. The Thunder opened up to lead by 4 points. In addition, the Pacers G3 surprise player Mathering missed two key free throws. Oklahoma narrowly won 111-104 in the end, and tied the series with 35 points led by SGA.
