say something nice about the pacers. maybe it’ll reverse things, and they’ll start playing like crap.

Too many days between Finals games. Casual fans have lost interest.

The Finals have always been spread out like this.
This series is fascinating and a nice change of pace from the big money spenders of the past several years. Sadly, casual fans are more interested in the fifth Lakers segment on First Take than the Thunder's big man rotation.

it is a good change from the big teams and a chance for a lot of people to see other great ones, like these two.

i gotta give Rick Carlisle respect. the pacers when they are rolling look like a well-coached team. they move the ball really well, find opportunities 'the old-fashioned way' (playing together) ... he's good at attempting to adjust strategies to suit the game (e.g. different defensive approaches) ... they get the most out of their bench on their good nights ... solid fundamentals

This has been exciting to watch. I never wanted a Pacers/OKC series (I don’t think anyone did), but I’m loving it so far.
