OK – goodnight, for real this time!

Postgame

Well, Indiana, what can you say? These playoffs, they have left multiple markets breathless with stunning, devastating comebacks, leaving those losers unable to recover over a long series. These were franchise altering losses. Ask the Knicks. Ask the Cavs. Now, will the Thunder suffer the same fate? What are they saying to each other right now in the locker room?

Absolutely brutal.

The Indiana Pacers looked like getting run over in the first half, and now escape with a Game 1 victory. Somehow. Some way. Unreal.

And that will do it for our live game coverage. Stick with us for more NBA Finals action, but for now, wherever you are, good morning, good afternoon and good night!
