The tiebreak is coming! The biggest weakness in the Thunder Finals is exposed! It’s really not unfair to lose this ball!

108 to 91! With a big score behind 2-3 in the finals, the Pacers returned to their home court to face the back-to-earth battle, defeating the Thunder with a huge advantage of 17 points, and tied the total score of the finals to 3-3. As the series enters the tiebreak finale, the title of this season will be decided at the Thunder's home court. No matter which team wins the cup in the end, it will usher in the birth of a new king! However, after the Thunder won two consecutive games, the loss exposed one of their major weaknesses, that is, their poor performance away. So, what is this problem?

In this game, although the Thunder's Alexander and Jewe were outstanding in the first half, they could only support the half. Alexander scored 21 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists, but made up as many as 8 turnovers, setting a record in the finals. Jiewei also performed well, contributing 16 points, 3 rebounds and 1 assist, but the plus or negative value was the lowest in the game -40. The Thunder team only scored 42 points in the first half, of which Alexander and Jewe contributed a total of 31 points, and the other players had almost no outstanding performance, as if they were wandering on the court. Although the team recovered slightly in the second half, due to the huge gap of 22 points behind in the half, the Thunder was still 30 points behind at the end of the third quarter and was unable to make up for the day. The whole game entered garbage time, and the Thunder suffered a 17-point defeat away.

With the defeat in this game, the Thunder's biggest weakness in the finals was also exposed, that is, their performance on the road was extremely poor. Although Alexander scored 15 points in the last five minutes of G4, he led the team to counterattack and win, the Thunder were always in a catching up in three away games. Compared with the strength at home, the young Thunder players' performance on the away game seems to be out of order. If it weren't for Alexander and Jewe's struggle for strength in the first half, the Thunder's score difference might be much more than 22 points. Although the team's state fluctuations in the face of key championship points and huge pressure from away fans are understandable, this is by no means an excuse for the team to lose a crushing defeat. If the Thunder finally wins the championship, their away performance will inevitably become the focus of doubt. The only good news is that the Thunder's away trip is over, and the next tiebreak finale will return to their own home court, and the team still has great hope of winning the championship. However, after seven fierce competitions with four wins, the championship competition has become a life-and-death battle of "single-game winning or losing". When both teams have a chance to win the championship, if the Thunder wants to successfully win the first championship trophy in team history, they still need to be fully prepared.

In this game, the Pacers returned to their home court and vowed to the death, and the team gathered their hearts and minds. Despite the cold touch at the beginning, they quickly adjusted their form, achieved a score reversal, and finally maintained the lead until the end of the game. It is worth mentioning that Halliburton, who was troubled by a calf injury, played with an injury in this game and still gave 14 points, 1 rebound and 5 assists, with a plus-minus value of 25, which is the highest in the game. He perfectly interpreted what "Return of the King" is. After gradually adapting to the injury in his calf, Halliburton became more and more courageous in the battle, and fulfilled his promise to start the game for the team.

Under Halliburton's leadership, the Pacers' team's condition has recovered in full swing. Nesmith regained his three-pointer touch and made three consecutive three-pointers in the second quarter; McConnell motivated the team with his vitality and enthusiasm, and scored 8 points in a single quarter in the second quarter, helping the team widen the gap, and finally contributed 12 points, 9 rebounds, 6 assists and 4 steals. Toppin also shone on both offense and defense, scoring 20 points, 6 rebounds and hitting 4 three-pointers; Siakam showed the style of the Eastern Conference Final MVP, contributing 16 points and 13 rebounds, showing his tough ability to confront the basket. All the Pacers were soldiers, and the substitutes led the Thunder by 48-37. If it weren't for the garbage time in advance in the fourth quarter, the substitutes gap might have been even bigger. At the same time, the Pacers are expected to become the first team in NBA history where 8 players average double-digit scores per game!

In this game, the Pacers' two best performances were control mistakes and conversion attacks. The Pacers made only 10 mistakes in the game, while the Thunder made 21 mistakes. The Pacers took advantage of this and scored 6 points ahead of the Thunder with 19 turnovers, and also led the Thunder with a full 11 points in fast break scoring! This data is no stranger, because Thunder once counterattacked the Pacers in this way in the Battle of Tianwang Mountain. Now, the role has changed. The Pacers used the game that the Thunder had been good at, continuing the suspense of the championship to the tiebreak. Even if the Pacers ultimately failed to win the championship, they still deserve everyone's respect and respect.

With such excellent performance from the Pacers, the Thunder lost this game not without reason! The finals tiebreak battle will begin on June 23. Which team will be able to achieve the "new king ascend the throne" in the final game and win the first championship trophy in team history? Let's wait and see!
