    How dare you! I made that bold prediction when there were still 3 minutes left in the game.

    I certainly did not see any evidence of rigging this series. The pacers came out and socked the Thunder in the nose the first game. SGA made shots that we all watched in game 4. Game 6 was a defensive masterclass by the Pacers.
    Just don't see the logic in taking away some of the truly great performances we just watched.

    Socked OKC in the nose game 1? Weren't they down double digits for the majority of the game and never led until .3 left? That's not socked? That's a cheap shot and running away lol

    Isn't he also the only top 5 draft pick starter in the finals?

    Most felt it was going to be a blowout and possibly a sweep.

    Guess who is the ref tomorrow evening?
    You guessed SCOTT FOSTER!

    Most of the people on the tweeter are saying OKC will benefit from Scott Foster being on the court.

    Isn't Foster one of those refs who likes to give a little extra love to the road team?

    That was always what I thought also but the tweeter has him helping OKC and sending SGA to the line 17 times for the win like game 4.
    Now understand game 4 was a road game for the Thunder so there is that.
