The favorite is down 1-2 on the road and the League busts out Scott Foster. I don’t care what the prop line will be on SGA’s free throw attempts tonight, but the over is stealing money.

I continue to believe the P's are in the driver's seat at this point, but they need to drive this one home tonight. Win this game and they're going to win it all. Lose it, and ugh all momentum shifts to OKC. Let's go P's

I originally was annoyed that there were only 2 days rest/prep for this game but as gassed as the top heavy thunder have looked in the 4th I am glad they only had 2 days rest.  
 

We didn’t shoot particularly well last 2 games hopefully tonight’s a night where we can get the 3s to fall and just wear the thunder down on D. 
 

Most important Game in Pacers NBA history. 
 

Maybe they will let Halliburton actually shoot a FT tonight.

So far I think the officiating has been less of a factor than I expected, I mean it hasn't been atrocious....but sadly, I fully expect the refs to get very involved in this game tonight, and not to benefit the Pacers! Hope I am wrong because it is so frustrating when that happens!

We just got to hit enough 3s to overcome it.  So far so good

Good start 

[Brass Cannon]

Refs will have us in foul trouble soon. This is just silly 

[Brass Cannon]

Starting to think even if the Thunder were intentionally trying to foul Halliburton the refs wouldn’t call it.

Scott Foster is the worst official in the NBA!

Only if you think an officials job is to call the game fair. If you think their job is to manage outcomes he’s a HoFer

So proud of this team to be leading despite the blatantly biased officiating

Good sign when the Pacers get 60 or more at the half! I can't imagine these guys won't give absolutely every bit of blood and sweat in this second half to win this game. They know that the winner of this game will probably win the series!

Matt "Porkchop" Painter is in the house....if the Pacers lose, we know who to blame!

Yeah fingers crossed the thunders legs give out in the 4th

This Pacers team, win or lose, are playing inspired basketball....Rick Carlisle may well be the best coach in the NBA!

Mark Boyle just said, "back to back three's from employee number 1"

Only thing keeping OKC in it are free throws.

[Brass Cannon]

It’s kinda crazy how many of our young guys are castoffs from bigger market teams

And non calls on the fouls they are committing

Obi Toppin! Not only a great name, but a great player! He was also a Dayton Flyer!
