Oklahoma City Thunder vs Indiana Pacers: Current situation
What exactly went wrong for the Oklahoma City Thunder in Game 6 is a question that they have to ask themselves. After their opponent opened the game 0-for-8 from the field, everyone thought that the Thunder were winning that game. However, just 35 points scored in the 2nd and 3rd quarters combined put OKC in a very difficult position as they went down by as many as 31 points. The 17 point defeat looks a lot better on paper compared to how the Thunder played in that game.
For Indiana everything revolved around Tyrese Haliburton and whether or not he would be healthy in Game 6. The talented point guard not only played, but also had a massive impact on the game with 14 points and 5 assists. It was a all around team effort by the Pacers who were carried by a sold out arena as they forced a Game 7 decider.
Oklahoma City Thunder Stats & Form
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander played one of his worst game of the year and he couldn’t have picked a worse time to do so. The MVP turned the ball over 8 times, ruining all the good things he’s done in this series and putting his team in a difficult spot ahead of Sunday’s game. Jalen Williams also had a horrible showing, finishing with just 16 points and a team worst -40 on the plus/minus.
Indiana Pacers Stats & Form
A total of 6 Pacers players scored in double figures on Thursday with the high point man being Obi Toppin who had 20 off the bench, as well as 6 rebounds. Pascal Siakam once again showed his experience in big moments like these scoring 16 points, but also grabbing 13 rebounds, including 5 on the offensive end. Indiana shared the ball way more than the Thunder did, winning the assist battle 23 to 14.

Interestingly enough, in these 6 games played the under has been the more profitable bet, cashing 4 times.

Betting tip and prediction: Oklahoma City Thunder vs Indiana Pacers (22.06.2025)
For the first time since 2016 and the series between the Cavaliers and Warriors, we have a Game 7 in the NBA Finals. The two teams have been evenly matched so far in almost every statistical category imaginable, Game 7 will come down to who wants it more. Playing at home gives a huge edge to Oklahoma City as they’ve built a strong fort at Paycom Center this season, however if you are backing them you have to ask yourself do you trust this team? We all still remember their NBA Cup Final loss against the Milwaukee Bucks from earlier in the season when they also scored well below 100 points. The Pacers on the other hand have nothing to lose. Nobody expected this team to get this far and not a lot of people saw them putting up this much resistance in the Finals. Indiana has played a Game 7 a total of 10 times in their franchise history, they are 4-6 SU in those games. The Thunder are 3-2 SU in 5 such games this season, including a Game 7 win over the Denver Nuggets earlier in this postseason run. Pacers coach Rick Carlisle has a championship under his belt and is 2-0 SU with this team in Game 7s. It is going to be a feisty game from both sides, there is no doubt about it. However, we just feel like playing at home gives the Thunder the definitive edge here. In 55 games played at home this year they are 46-9 SU, it’s just too hard to look past that. Let’s back OKC to cover at home and clinch this series on Sunday night.
